Relatively easy to make but woul have gone better with softer fabric. Hopefully it will soften up with wear.

Thanks for the comments. I will have to try the washing as I do have some linen which needs softening up.

I like the thin ribbons detail! I softened the fabric for my Nichola pants (a linen blend) running it three times through hot washing and dryer with a towel (now I wash them with cold water and care). The fabric came out wonderful like brushed. It was not a print though… if you have leftover fabric you may want to try this.
