Be warned, windswept Anna photos to follow… My first version of Butterick 5948 was a success and as basic tees are a missing item...
Several months ago when I spied a 80cm silk remnant in Tessuti I instantly thought… everyone needs a little ‘pretty’ in their life. This is my pretty! A simple dolman sleeve woven silk top. Needless to say, I brought that ‘pretty’ remnant thinking I’d have just enough to make a sleeveless top, but then I...
