I made this tunic especially for my mom. I used lightweight cotton with batik. Pleated style infront to add the space in the bust area. 3/4 long sleeve, as i always remember that's my mom favourite. I was so happy that the tunic fit well on her. She likes the style and the colour. The picture above is the front side of the tunic. The picture above is the back side of the tunic. I made the two covered button with the same material. I also add simple pleat on the back side. Well, it's all about my project on this moment. I wish I could post this project earlier, but delay with the long holidays with my family in Indonesia. And now, I am having so many ideas for my next project after the holidays. There is so many fabric sitting inside my sewing room waiting for me to sewing them all.
