The Details
Why You’ll Love Making This
There's a certain dress that becomes your summer uniform — the one that looks put-together with sandals and a market basket, and just as good dressed up. The Aveline is designed to be that dress: clean linen lines, a waist cut-out that adds interest without fuss, and instructions detailed enough that your first linen garment looks intentional, not homemade.

Frequently Asked
Is this too hard for a beginner?
It's an ambitious-beginner make — a step up from an elastic-waist project, but every step (including the cut-out) is photographed. If you've finished one simple garment, you're ready.
How much fabric do I need?
Yardage is charted by size; most sizes need 2.5-3.5 yards of 45" linen or linen-blend.
