Three hacks for the price of one! This black Quali

Three hacks for the price of one! This black Qualicum Jumpsuit features a front zipper, a collar and stand, and a cinched waistline. It almost looks like a totally different pattern!⁣
⁣
All the details you need for these changes are on the blog, complete with illustrations AND a collar/stand pattern piece. Combine these changes with the separates hack and the Qualicum might be the most versatile pattern in the Straight Stitch library. Tap save so you can come back to this later!⁣

Magnolia is available in sizes 0-24 and is free to newsletter subscribers!⁣
