1 hour caftan + Innocent Crush voile = breezy, fairly easy

Posted on July 21, 2011 by Michelle

Using the 1 hour caftan tutorial by SewConvert with Innocent crush voile.
This tutorial actually took me about two hours. The tutorial assumes that you know what facing is, and how to do it. I knew neither, as I haven’t done too much garment sewing, but after a quick lesson from Karyn, I was back on track. I also did the hems by hand, which took longer as well.
The end result was definitely worth it! The voile while feeling delicate was very easy to work with and it feels so light and breezy, even in this 47C humidity!
I’d recommend this tutorial, but if you are the type of crafter that needs detailed written instructions, you might want to test it out with some scrap fabric for a little one first.
