Burda Style For people who sew
Description
i found this heavy embossed fabric and i knew i would make it into a long maxi. its hard to see this ‘print’ when your not up close to it..but i think it is lovely! it feels great to wear, i just love the weight to it. i did alter the pattern for to have skinnier straps, no zipper (i added a little room to wiggle) and i shortened the lenght of the tiers so it wouldn’t be too heavy! maybe not appropriate for this hot hot heat of summer, but soon it will be worn! oh yea, the embossing is this great fish design with bubble looking shapes!!
