Freja Vest – Resource Page

With Just Patterns, I believe in empowering dressmakers to improve their skills with each project. In case you need help to figure out a particular step or you want to discover new ways to do things, I curated a compilation of resources you may find helpful when constructing your garment.

To buy the pattern, please visit my shop. If you are stuck on certain parts or would like to suggest other useful tutorials, don't hesitate to get in touch!
