Peasant/Tunic after

This over-sized ladies shirt is a good transition weight and color for our Texas fall.

Black buttons. Bias casing added.

Steps:

• Keep tunic size/shape. Change neckline to peasant style.
• Cut neckline higher than most tutorials show. 
• Add white bias strip casing cut from pillow case stash.
• Add elastic.
• Change to black buttons on front & cuffs.        
•  Wear with refashioned white linen pants. 
• Casual/Professional outfit for College and School District visits.

Lunch napkin.

Add-on: I like fabric napkins and hope they reduce my ecological footprint.  Scrap napkins remind me of clothes I make/refashion.

Steps:

• Combine shirt/pillow-case scraps to make a casual napkin for the kitchen napkins basket. 
• Back with white scrap from neck binding, 7 " wide, serge.
