I’ve tried to download this file for the Justine skirt,it comes in a zip file but it will not open..
Hi Jennie, normally you can double click the zip file to open a new folder.
Fabulous sew along. Can I use scuba for this? Thank you.
Hi, not sure what you mean by scuba. Do you mean neoprene? If so, I’ve not used that before but you’re welcome to give it a try. Please let us know how it goes!
