I have been busy pattern drafting & sewing samples. I thought I might whet your appetite with a few photos of the Hopscotch Wraparound Jumpsuit class project. The sample is a size 5.
I made my sample from a Liberty look-a-like I've been dying to use, but we have all kinds of great lawn prints in stock for lightweight summer sewing.
Here are a few I think would look great too and in honor of this post, select 60" lawn prints are on sale now for 7.50 yd!!!
I added 1/4" gingham bias binding to all the edges and was once again very thankful for Roxanne's Glue Baste-It and my pinning board!
I wanted a retro feel to the topstitching on bias so I chose to stitch using a coral pink thread and a 3.5W/2.5L zigzag stitch.
To make ties, simply continue bias off the edge of fabric and stitch along edge as before.
