Studio Tunic is now my Gardening Tunic

This pattern was very easy to follow and the instuctions explain how to get a professional finish. It is a generous fit which I like because I plan to wear the tunic as a gardening tunic. When it gets colder I will wear a thick jumper or layers under it.

I used a thick corduroy for my tunic which worked fine. I used a piece of William Morris print fabric for the facings to cut down on the thickness and have some fun. You will see that I have also used the same print for the inner pockets and the loop on the back. I added inner pockets on both sides and made them slightly bigger to house my mobile phone and glasses and house keys. The only other thing I did differently was to use bias tape on the hem because I chose thick fabric.

I think the pattern would work well in denim, lighter cord and linen too and I might size down for an indoor tunic.

Because there are no zips, buttons or complicated seams, in my opinion, this pattern is suitable for beginners. Have fun!
