Zero Waste Pinafore Dress
Tutor Jane Gordon
This is a Zero Waste sewing project using a pattern designed by Jane Gordon.
With a Zero Waste pattern, you end up with NO waste fabric at all. From your fabric, you will cut all of the pieces to make the dress.
The sewing together of this pattern cleverly assembles the pieces and incorporates decorative top stitching details and multiple pockets. The pattern covers many sizes and different lengths
