Description
I bought this jersey-fabric without knowing what to do with it. I loved the flowers, but I thought I would feel to “gaudy” if I wear a shirt or a dress made of this fabric. Next week a friend will make a flower-power-party, so I thought the fabric would be perfect. It’s very elastic, so I didn’t need a zipper. I used the Lydia-pattern for the bust part & the sleeves and added darts at the back.
