Description
I love sewing dresses, especially pattern as this one. It’s great for color blocking, or combination with different fabric. Since the colorful fabric are viscose jersey and softer than the black cotton jersey, I had to use interfacing on the wrong side of these panels. I also made facing for the neck and sleeve opening. I think the dress is a great evening dress and I like how it turned out, so I’m ready for a Party :)

Ellen this dress is really beautiful , it suits you great. It’s one of my favorites too in this Burda issue. I will try it myself. I like your fabric combination with the flowers and I like tis black-red combination. The colours are very warm.

Although burda has released several similar dress patterns I think this one is the most refined! I also love black color on you. It’s a nice alternative to all the pretty colors you sew!
