Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I loved this pattern in BWoF, but I hate skirts with slits. It wasn’t until I was tracing the pattern that I thought ‘why not make it an A-line?’ It’s the first time I’ve significantly re-drafted a pattern and I love the result. I will be making at least one more with short sleeves for the summer.
Material Notes
Grey Rayon Jersey.

This is an excellent job. It’s too bad you live on the other side of the Atlantic or I’d be at your door tomorrow. Nehmah

Absolutely Gorgeous! I have this pattern and have been going to make it myself when I get around to it. Excellent idea with the skirt too. I have read a few reviews for this and the slit is a bit of a problem because of how revealing it is (we don’t all want to do a Liz Hurley!).

Lovely and what a great idea ! I had the pattern but couldn’t tell what disturbed me with it… I might give the A-line skirt a try.
