Exploding Color Tunic

Rae made this tunic with an asymmetrical cross over opening with fabric her daughter brought her from Mayotte. It is an extended front Tabula Rasa Jacket with inseam buttonholes creating a Double Breasted closure. Because the scraps were very uneven, the lower tunic is asymmetrically designed in both the front and back. It does not have a band finish, but a lined bodice that attaches to the unlined lower section of the tunic. Read more about pattern work for a similar design in the post Happy Birthday Shirt!

Here is a peak at the back. Flat piping was added between the upper and lower front pieces to add difinition.
