Laowai

I made a new to me pattern. It’s called the Wilder Gown/Top and it’s from the Friday Pattern Co.

It has raglan sleeves and it can be worn with its ties open like above. Or you can make a bow and create a high ruffle collar like below. 

I really like this pattern. It is so very simple to make but I think the collar makes it fun and special and feminine. The dress version has tiers of gathered fabric and it’s really flowy. For my fabric I used the same duvet cover that I ordered from H&M to use as the backing for my quilt. So, yes, I can match my quilt and two pillowcases too (ha). I’ve seen lots of versions of the top online done in a lighter weight fabric and it’s really pretty. I can’t wait to have easier access to fabric shops so I can try another shirt and maybe a dress too.
