Oliver + S Swingset Tunic & Skirt ~ Available at www.april1930s.com
 
April 1930's recently collaborated with Oliver + S, the Children's Pattern Company, by creating a photo tutorial featuring the Swingset Tunic & Skirt Pattern and the unique placket construction.  In so doing, a Singer Automatic ZigZagger tutorial and a real-life sewing example of decorative stitching were also created bringing the old SINGER Fashion Aid new life.  If you have ever felt anxious about actually using your ZigZagger Attachment, especially on your Singer Featherweight 221 or 222, then this will encourage you to try it!

But, guess what else came along in the ol' camper?  If you guessed my Singer Featherweight, you would be correct!  Those afternoon camping quiet times are the most relaxing time to do a little sewing.
 
Happy Summer!
