The top is linen and made with the (free) peppermint wraptop pattern and the shorts are made from a damaged quilt I found at a charity shop. I was also able to make a bag, pair of dungarees, and a hat from this quilt! I did add pockets to the shorts but these patterns didn’t really need any altering. The bag is self drafted, just a slouchy backpack with a fron pocket and drink bottle holders.

    Looks so comfy! It’s cool you were able to get so much use out of a quilt that might otherwise have been destined for waste.

      I find most of my fabrics at our local dump in their tableclothes/curtains/bedding piles. It’s more affordable and more sustainable which is nice
