Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This fascinator was made for a friend for her wedding. She asked me to repurpose the handkerchief that her mother carried in her wedding over 40 years ago. I managed to create it only using strategically placed folds, and stitched it together minimally in order to retain the original structure of the handkerchief in case she ever wants to pass it along to her daughter to repurpose for her wedding.
