Burda Style For people who sew

That was the last moment to make this summer dress and still enjoy it enough this year. It’s spectacular with this giant skirt and the sunny color. I used pattern 149 from Burda 04/1994, simplified a bit.
Material Notes
Cotton batiste with embroidered pattern, around 6 meters, 10 plastic green flower-button, 2m of green twine, 3m of green piping.
