Patterns, Techniques, Articles, Blogs, and other resources to learn how to sew
AdithisAmmaSews shares a pair of tutorials for making an angrakha wrap tunic from scratch. The tunic has a very flattering shape, and the asymmetrical neckline is a beautiful detail. The first tutorial shows how to draft the pattern (you’ll need to start with a basic shift dress pattern or sloper that fits); the second tutorial shows how to sew it up.

The bag is simple, uses very little fabric (about 2/3rds of a fat quarter), has no fussy inside pockets (although you can add your own if you like), and takes me well less than 30 minutes to print the pattern, cut out and sew. But quick and simple doesn’t mean it’s not awesome!
It’s the sort of bag that is versatile enough to be used for lots of applications, not just cosmetics and toiletries. Keep all your pens and pencils in order, use it for a small first aid kit for the car, keep it in your desk at work for a few headache pills and other personal supplies.
Make some for yourself, for gifts or to sell.
Now and then you see something, and you know you just HAVE To make it.. this is one of those. Thank you. The Tut looks easy to follow so I am still looking forward to making, being not much of a garment sewer.
