Time to Get Cozy: Snuggly Knits are Perfect for December

Springtime Sewing Is Here!
We are exploring different blouse options for the month of April so that after two months of sewing bottoms, you won't have to go walking around topless (unless that's your thing).

But, we chose blouses because they combine classic styling with unique features that lift them above the ordinary. Because, at the end of the day, we know you want to make tops that look just as good with jeans as they do with your best skirt.
March Madness for Trouser Patterns
