Pretty Romance Voile Projects

pattern by Amy Butler

Voile projects are easy-to-make fresh accents to compliment your style! The light and graceful drape of my voile fabric lends itself to the breezy feel of these designs. Simple hand stitching and a few basic techniques are all that is needed to create these unique and elegant accessories.

Projects include – Peony Bloom Flower Pins, Lovely Petals Necklace, Boho Braided Necklace, Ruched Scarf
