I also would like to see a tutorial on linings. It’s all good, though! I love it! I say I’m at an intermediate level, but I do love to see the beginning instructions; some of my elementary sewing skills can be lacking!

I’d like to see some more menswear (patterns and techniques), more dress patterns. Thank you burda for this site!!!

I think I’d like to see more menswear like other people here, and maybe also some more tutorials about it, like alterations! – from what I could gather, it’s a bit different from womenswear, and alterations for women are usually the only thing you see in sewing books.

You know what would be really cool? A Burdastyle app for iphone!!!! Also, I would love any tutorials on linings. I need to learn how to make the inside of my garments as beautiful as the outside :-)

Vintage sewing techniques as well as couture techniques.

Whole outfits – for example if you show an evening gown, give us the pattern for the gown, the matching wrap,and a great little bag, all together in one place.
More alteration tips for RTW would be great as well!

i like to see tutorial about making a blouse pattern, with sleeve… and how to alter burda pattern to fit my size. thank you…

I am already so impressed with the variety and thoroughness of BurdaStyle’s technique and tutorial sections. This is a great site to get good sewing/textile-related advice from us visual learners.
The only suggestion is to add to the photos and videos- it’s almost like having a friend there with you when you need to tackle a new technique or for a refresher. However, as great as the videos are, they can’t replace all the times spent sewing with my Mom…so, I guess we’ll just watch the videos together!
Thanks for the opportunity to take part in the giveaway.

Of course, larger patterns, but id love to see different patterns for busts. Theres one pattern by misia? That i LOVE and use ALL THE TIME. Id love more of those. Not to mention im not particularly good at pattern putting together, so an easier pattern would be nice!
