Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I made my JJ during sewing lessons. I asked my teacher to help alter the pattern to achieve a better fit. We made it smaller up the top and bigger around the hips (like my figure) but went a bit too far. However it doesn’t matter ‘cos I’m pregnant and it suits my rapidly expanding waist line! I will probably take it in a bit when I get my figure back.
Material Notes
Red fabric found at the op shop, I'm pretty sure its synthetic.

Thanks everyone. I have to agree, red is my colour I wore a red wedding dress, the one in my picture.

Nice JJ. I like the contrast with the ruffles and buttons. Red is your colour.
