Rachel Tunic hi-low hem hack

Welcome to See Kate Sew! If you're new here, sign up for my email newsletter for access to free patterns, tutorials and all the latest sewing news!

I have had this flamingo fabric for months and months and finally made the flamingo Rachel tunic of my dreams! I strayed from the pattern as written just a tiny bit, to create a hi-low hem like the girl’s version has! The Emma top is so cute with the hi-low hem, so I had to try it on the Rachel!

It’s also the last day to save 30% on all patterns with code MOTHER—> STOCK UP NOW!

The pattern work for this is super simple! Instead of cutting the skirt out at the curve along the top, just make it straight across. You can do this hack with any of the versions – top, tunic or dress – but I did it here with the tunic version! The tunic is really my favorite length, I love to wear it with leggings or skinny jeans. But, I may make some tops and dresses for the summer when I may not want to wear leggings underneath!

-Rachel Top Pattern

-Pencil + Ruler

–Flamingo Fabric

This is hardly a hack, the only piece that is affected is the skirt piece! Just straighten out the curve, you’ll create a longer skirt overall and a hi-low hem!

 

Happy Sewing!
