I really love the natural colour of this fabric and how comfortable they feel to my skin. The shape of the tunic is very simple, sort of basic item that can be combined with lots of things.
The tunic has round neckline and front opening with fabric loop and button. I use cotton linen binding strips for the loop and neckline. The linen fabric also used as side tab and details on sleeves. Love the result!
I also made some more with different bindings for my shop

i imagine your studio as a sunny constant production line of creativity, like you have little magical elves or mice running around to get you this or that….
