I like the dude behind the maxi dress the most.
Found lace on sales so I had to buy it. I used Simplicity pattern (1873) by Cynthia Rowley. Instead of the sleeve that comes with pattern for dress A, I decided to make regular short sleeves inste…
Thank you :-)
Thank you Mary!
This was my second time using the pattern. The first time turned out too small for me in the back. This time I added 2 inches to the center seams (tops and skirts) and it fits perfectly.
Wow!
Thanks Mary! My dentist said that he had a shirt with similar pattern than he worn in the 60s wi…
Thank you
A wrap dress with printed cotton and pink satin lining. I used Very Easy Vogue V8784.
You made it fit you so nicely. I like the dark green.

What is going on with Burda lately. I hardly get any inspiration from the site anymore.
Thank you Mary.
I used left over fabric to make this skirt and decided to make a tie in the back for fun. First the waist was too tight so I fixed the pleats. Now, it is too big. When you live in a cold snowy pl…
Love what you did with it and the color, too.
Thank you both for the complements.
This green dress was made with jacquard fabric, which I turned inside out because I want to be able to wear it to work. I had to move the waist-line up twice and shorten the dress by about 6 inche…
Beautiful.
Love it!
