Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This is the second dress I have ever made and had a suprisingly enjoyable time while doing so. The cotton fabric I used was given to me for free and has spent the last 5 years stored away in someone’s attic, only to find its way into my crafty hands!
Also this was my first attempt at using striped fabric and had a hell of a time lining up everything (or getting it close)! The finished product was well worth the work, and I plan on making another one of these for my best friend!

Nice dress! I had forgotten about this pattern, but it looks good. Good job on matching the stripes. The bodice wouldn’t have looked half as good without it.
