Project | Two Piece Lounge Wear (Adire Fabric)
Pattern | Top: Self-drafted (see video for details) | Pants: Pantalon George Digital Pattern
Some days I am more wolf than woman; and I am still learning how to stop apologizing for my wild.

I have wanted to make this set for so long; almost 6 months now. But I took one look at this fabric – which I’ve also had for a long time, and decided I was going to use it before summer…lol. Now that it’s done, I’m going to make some more because look at how cute this is. And it’s so comfortable…OMG! I love it, and if you’re a DIY girl, then you have to try it.
Makes me feel better about abandoning this fabric for so long. The wait was worth it! 😉
FYI: The pattern instructions are written in French, but once you pop it into google translate, problem is fixed. Easy!
Here are my measurements, for reference:
Size 14
Bust 34″ | Waist 28″ | Hips 38″
Height: 5’7″
