My first attempt at the Sadie. I love it— it fits me perfectly! And the bamboo is soooo comfortable. I’m glad I had enough left over from my wrap shirt to use it. I didn’t quite follow the directions— did a serger rolled hem on the edge of the drape instead of turning it under, and I sewed the drape on with wrong side to the right side of the tank so there would be a clean edge inside without the bulk of the binding.

Best Sadie yet! Where did you buy your fabric from? Bamboo is such a brilliant fabric.

The neckline drapes beautifully!
I recently bought bamboo jersey and I find it to be really slippery and difficult to cut out. Did you have this problem?
