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.
Cotton batiste with embroidered pattern, around 6 meters, 10 plastic green flower-button, 2m of green twine, 3m of green piping.
