Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I´m so happy with my new project!!!
I downloaded Helena Skirt pattern and I changed it!! It´s so versatil pattern.
First, I cut the waistband shorter than the pattern, then I made different pleats in the back and in the front. Back´s pleats are deeper and longer and I stiched them much.
But the most difficult thing were buttonholes… the next time I´ll sew them better, sure!!!
Material Notes
I bought this fabric in Amsterdam´s Albert Cuypmarket. Amazing place!!! And very cheap fabrics!!!

Qué dificil hacer los ojales! puuuuffff!!! con lo fácil que parecía! Apuntate el sitio que esta muy bien, en La Haya tb encontre una tienda con telas super baratas, era en la avenida Laan Van Meerdervoort, pero no me acuerdo a que altura.
