Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Classic blazer from burda magazine 2/11. I simplified the sewing process by leaving out the button details on the sleeves and the upper welt pocket. It was a fairly easy pattern to follow, and a beautiful fit so I plan to make it again soon in a printed striped fabric.
Material Notes
I used a non-stretch suiting fabric instead of jersey and there wasn’t a problem with the fit or anything.
