FABRIC REQUIREMENTS: The following table outlines fabric requirements based on 110cm (44") fabric.

Please note: (1) The estimates below do not include directional fabrics. I recommend you cut out the pattern & lay the pieces down on a flat surface to help estimate fabric needs for directional fabric. (2) If you are sewing with rayon, remember to allow for shrinkage & buy a little extra. (3) Also it’s wise to pre-wash your fabrics, in particular rayon.

Patchwork Playtime Pinny

Front: For this style, you can literally raid your scrap fabric stash. All of the pieces are quite small. If you have none, simply buy a selection of 'Fat Quarters' for the front, facing & straps. I have used 6 different prints in the Patchwork section of this tutorial, you may choose to use more of less.
