Burda Style For people who sew
Description
For this project my imagination went to an ancient civilization of eastern North Africa, Egypt.
The Nile, one picture, the upper and lower part of this country, the architectural wonders and the legate of it history made me put hands on two small pieces of gold and cooper knit fabric that I found in a garage sale long time ago.
First I craft the skirt fabric. I cut stripes of both fabrics about 11/2 inches thick, tread the borders and alternate then by color on a piece of tulle; creating the skirt.
This garment has a unique dart at front and exposed zipper.
Material Notes
Metalic knit fabric in gold and cooper, illution tulle and big zipper
