Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I finished the Knot Front Dress pattern 108b from the March addition of Burda Magazine.
I cut a size 80 tall or size 14UK. I did not make any adjustments as usually i need to lengthen the bodice as i have a really long body even though i am only 5’5".
As i don’t like my clothes not having pockets i added an inseam pocket to the right side, i would have added one to the left as well but the zipper was in the way.
I have worn it once to Ironbridge Brass Band Festival. Now i would like some warm weather so i can wear it again. C’umon Sumshine
