Did you even think it was possible that the Bondi Top could get any better? Well it just has!!! Now you can make your favorite top into a full length dress! Talk about best pattern hack EVER!!
When I designed the Bondi Top this year, I had absolutely no clue how popular it would be. It seems like once you make one, you just can't stop... Do you feel that way too?
I have made so many tops that it got me to thinking... I love dresses, let's make a Bondi Tunic!! When I was given a couple pieces from the new range Good Hair Day by Kim Andersson for Wyndham Fabrics, I knew exactly what I was going to do with it. Who knew how cute bobby pins and braids could be! I am in LOVE!
And here is a look at the entire Good Hair Day Range. Now Available at Hawthorne Threads.
So that you can share in my excitement...I have whipped up a little tutorial for you all. Click here to download the directions for How to Lengthen.
Don't have the Bondi Top Pattern??? Not to worry. Head on over to our shop to get yourself a printed or PDF copy. Click Here.
Just imagine this is a chambray denim, a voile, or even a knit. The possibilities are endless. Make sure to check in next week when I show you how to insert the casing. It's super simple, but I think it really makes this pattern hack extra special.
I hope you enjoyed today's pattern hack. I can't wait to see your version. Be sure to tag @sewtogrow on instagram or facebook to share your makes with me!
Happy Sewing,

Thanks for the helpful guide. Installing a wall mount can make a big difference when it comes to space management. Your explanation about how to use it effectively was very clear. It’s definitely something I’m considering for my home office. Keep sharing such valuable content!
Great article! I’ve recently been researching workspace upgrades, and standing desk legs black seem like a great option for creating a modern and flexible setup. They not only look sleek but also pair well with different desktop styles. I’m considering using them with a height-adjustable table to improve comfort during long work hours. Thanks for sharing such useful insights—this really helps people looking to upgrade their home office. Looking forward to more helpful posts like this!
The idea of using a table to desk setup is really practical for home and office workspaces. It allows you to reuse existing furniture while creating a more ergonomic working environment. I believe a strong and stable table to desk surface is important for supporting laptops and study materials. This type of workspace solution is simple yet effective for modern living. Thanks for sharing such useful information about smart furniture ideas.
Thanks for sharing these design insights. An olive green upholstered bench is perfect for adding a subtle pop of color. It is comfortable, stylish, and highly functional. I think it’s an excellent choice for entryways and bedrooms.
Installing a floating shelf for wall in my bedroom was such a smart choice. It’s sturdy enough for photo frames and small collectibles, and it adds a stylish touch to the space. I also appreciate that it’s easy to clean and doesn’t clutter the room. It’s amazing how one small piece can make such a big difference in both storage and decor. Highly recommended!
