So many cute tunics!,but several have back details in the description. Next time would you please show a picture of the back.
PS I don’tthink”midi” describes a mine which is mid thigh; it’s mid calf. Also called tea length, I believe.

Why did you say these are “free” patterns when they cost money? You are pathetic.

    All the patterns I’ve listed here were free of charge at the time of writing. Some may ask you to join their Facebook page or newsletter for a coupon but still they are all free.
    Which one are you looking at?
