Burda Style For people who sew
Description
The other day I totally fell in love with one of the black dresses in some magazine, and eventually started to think to sew a knock-off for myself. The dress is made of polyester black jersey. I put the contrasting pipings, exactly same as the original dress (would) had, according to my memories. I was very happy sewing it. I’m happy with how it turned out, too.
Material Notes
black polyester jersey and white rayon jersey.
Difficulty
Intermediate
