Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I am lucky to have a weekly fabric market here in Utrecht and on my last visit I discovered a stand with piles of colourful and cheerfully printed cottons – and I do love colours! This time I amended the Tara top to a bandeau dress. It’s the first time I tried elastic shirring which I used for the back and it worked out well. Spring just arrived here – with loads of sunshine and all the flowers and trees starting to bloom. That’s my dress to welcome the warm season!
Material Notes
cottons, elastic for shirring, string, beads
