Peppermint Milton Pinafore - 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 useful when constructing your garment.

I was commissioned by the team at Peppermint Magazine to help develop this pattern for their free pattern initiative. Visit their website to learn more and download the pattern. #peppermintpatterns.
