I instantly fell in love with the jumpsuit pattern recently posted by Burdastyle. It was not difficult to make, it fits well and it looks pretty much like the one in the picture. I think I went a bit wild with the fabric choice but I still like the overall look of it. Challenge: mattching up those zig-zags perfectly. Oh, I did a tutorial on attaching the biased binding as trim with a fabric facing. Project blogged about here
2 3/4 yards lightweight synthetic fabric, 3/4 "satin biased binding

Great, a little wild but in a good way, how did you line it up? Hehe

Thanks! Mostly I pinned the fabric before I layed the pattern on it. I matched where I layed the fabric for the top pocket pattern tand for top pants pattern before I cut.

I only today bought the magazine but you are already wearing the outfit! Perfect choice of design and colours for you! Very, very nice.

Very chic! Please share your technique to line up seams on such a print if you have time. My prints are always skewed a little.
Thank you!
