Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This is my first attempt at the Anda dress pattern. I used elastic instead of a drawstring cause I was feeling lazy. :P It came out a bit big, and I wish I’d put the elastic a little lower, as it looks kind of odd when I don’t wear it with my super awesome belt.
EDIT: There seems to be about a million of the same photo and I can’t delete any of them… I’m working on it.
Material Notes
I had a fabric remnant kicking around that I bought from the bargain section of Ikea for £1 that called to me for this pattern.

I love the fabric you used! I wish I lived near an IKEA…I remember that I thought the Anda pattern was a bit boring when I first saw it, but I think it looks great the way you’ve made it up. The belt makes your waist seem so tiny!
