I think this may be my new favorite thing for Sprout and I’m pretty sure I need to make one Mommy size.  
Let me show you how easy it is to make a bolero jacket with ruffles!

ONLY CUT YOUR SLEEVE LENGTH, OVERALL SWEATER LENGTH, AND SIDE SEAMS.
DO NOT CUT ALONG THE SHOULDERS – I just realized the dotted lines run up the outer edge and shoulders – duh!  Don’t cut there or along the v-neck!
Leave the v-neck intact for now.

So, there it is.  My bolero refashion with ruffles.  It seriously was super easy!  Go forth and thrift, refashion and sew!

  1. Let’s be honest. You are SUPER talented… and you make a lot of great things for your company and for your family and your friends…

    But this Trish. This might be one of my most FAVORITE things that you’ve made.

    Honest.

    Let’s do lunch.

  2. I was all excited about making it for myself and then saw oh it’s for a kid. I’d make it for my daughter Rylie (7) and then one for me? We’ll see. If I could make it all one color I’d like for myself.
