Sewing Projects!:Ankara designs



So…for those that don't know, ankara fabric is a colorfully designed cotton fabric worn by west africans. I LOOOOVE ankara, and my goal is to sew these designs. 

I'm very curvy (in the front and the back 😊 ), so finding clothes that fit properly is ummm….difficult lol! 


Sewing and designing has always been my dream, so this year I'm fulfilling that dream. Here are just a few designs that I want to attempt using ankara fabric!

~~If you have any advice on sewing with ankara fabric, do please share!~~
