new style: crossback spaghetti strap flouncy vintage fabric sundress

As I do not use “regular” sewing machines and also avoid zippers and buttons, I developed this style to easily go over your head and cross at the back, as a breezy, Summer sundress.

And I am excited to sew up my vintage fabric collection!!!

introducing apron halter wrap

It’s been a while since I developed a new style! I have been searching for a way to use my vintage cotton fabrics, many that show better when kept as full panels.

I look forward to creating these as a year round style, since aprons layer nicely!
