Make old things new again! Twig & Tale patterns pair wonderfully with recycled fabrics. Look to gently used light weight linen garments, and muslin baby wraps for inspiration.

I love my new Breeze shirt! I chose to make it in an Essex Linen and it’s comfortable and pretty. After making a muslin in my measured for size, I chose to cut an inch of length in the bodice and sleeves. I used my overlocker for construction instead of the French seams. The A0 pattern worked with my projector so no printing necessary. I have another planned in black linen for winter.
Easy to follow instructions. I can’t wait to wear them with my 10years old and 21months old daughters. I will make my husband’s too
I love this pattern so much that I have made three so far and think I may make more. I have one in lawn (lightweight cotton), one in tencel, which has more drape but still works well, and now one in linen, which is my all-time favourite shirt. The linen is from Merchant & Mills and is so soft plus it doesn't crease as badly as I had expected (see photo). I did the French seams for the first two versions but then switched to standard seams and used my trusty overlocker for the linen one. I cannot recommend this pattern highly enough. It is quick and straightforward and flattering plus there are no darts to get in the wrong place.
This was an absolute delight to make and it went together perfectly - just waiting for some worm weather to wear it! Love the layered pattern - so much easier than having to negotiate all those dots and dashes! So man options - which one to choose next - maybe a tunic!
A quick make and excellent instructions and looks fab too!
I used this as the base pattern to replicate my neighbors favorite shirt. It was perfect! I just left off the collar and it's exactly what she was looking for. It was so easy even with the modifications I made. I made it in under 2 hours.
The breeze shirt is fantastic. I love that there are several options to make it wider, smaller or longer where needed. That way you can create the best fit for your own body type. Easy to follow instructions.
Another lovely pattern by Twig & Tale!! The instructions are great & easy to follow. I consider myself to be an adventurous beginner to intermediate beginner, I never felt out of my depth here. The shirt is super comfy, to the point that I'm comfortable crawling on floor cutting fabric in my breeze shirt
very well written instructions, easy to follow and great video tutorial.
made a test first, now have to get some nice drapey material for the real one :)
