I drafted it, but if you have a sloper you could easily do one too – oversized t-shirt shape with neckline pleats :) Thanks so much!

I use the selvedges on my stretch lace all the time for edges. Saves time sewing! Wildflower, if it’s stretch lace, it’s dreamy soft to wear. Once you start sewing stretch lace, you cannot stop. Cannot! And you end up with this amazing wardrobe worthy of Free People for a fraction of the price.

I drafted one for an oversize t-shirt shape with neckline pleats. A very easy pattern to make, if you wanna give it a try!

Thank you! It’s a bit itchy actually, because of the metallic threads.
