The construction of it is easier than you might think, as it is only a piece of silky fabric sewn together with lace fabric and trimmed around the edge with lace ribbon.

SUPPLIES: - 2 yards of your base or solid fabric - 2 yards of lace fabric - Lace trim

STEP ONE: MEASURE AND CUT Be sure to leave 1 inch of the solid fabric to extend outside the lace overlay, because you will be hemming and need to account for that allowance.

STEP TWO: HEM I’ve learned these slippery and delicate fabrics work best if you can hem before trying to pin and sew together.
