With interchangeable sleeves and optional elastic, you can create six different design variations from one pattern. Designed for sizes 14-32, Corin is drafted for a comfortable, wearable fit and is suitable for lightweight woven fabrics with drape such as rayon, linen blends, cotton lawn, or soft chambray.

The mix-and-match sleeve and waist options allow you to experiment gently without feeling overwhelmed. For customers who enjoy quilting but want to explore clothing, Corin offers a manageable pathway into wearables - straightforward construction, adaptable styling, and satisfying results. It's also a wonderful pattern for building a small handmade capsule wardrobe, sewing multiple variations in different fabrics for everyday rotation.
