Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Dress made from 1940’s pattern
I used bias binding since pattern didn’t have any facings. Nearing completion I thought the front of the dress needed just a bit more red. I decided on pockets and added bias tabs on the front and pockets.
Material Notes
1 1/2 mtrs cotton fabric
2 mtrs red bias binding
invisible zip

The extra bits of red were a great idea.
