Burda Style For people who sew

Notes

By participating in a Project Runway-esque competition at Kent State University, Therese Rietschlin has won the opportunity to have the creation of her choice made into a BurdaStyle pattern, sponsored by Coats & Clark!

This sweet sleeveless dress features a curved neckband and ruffled front, voluminous skirt with side pockets and a band which ties at the waist. A perfect summer frock. We made ours in a paisley printed cotton. For the front ruffles we serged the edges, you could also zig-zag stitch or leave the edges raw for a more vintage feel.
