Burda Style For people who sew

Description

I’ve been wanting to try this pattern for a while but my antique sewing machine didn’t like knits. I recently bought a serger and gave it a go. Love the serger and the finished top. I could make a bunch of these and have fun with the necklines. Only had 1 metre of fabric so had to serge some pieces together for one of the sleeves but I like that look. Neckline, hem, sleeves finished by serging. It went together really quickly.

Material Notes

A piece of fabric I bought over a year ago that my daughter has been using for her blankie. Recently traded her another piece of fabric for it and finally got to make the shirt.
