Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Here is my first completed sewing project! It is a summer dress for my daughter.
Material Notes
I used a cotton print. I started using a pattern for a basic dress but the pattern was soooo big. So I left the pattern direction behind and went on my own and this is what I came up with.

The fabrics are beautiful together. I would never have thought these 2 fabrics would look good together but they do! You’ve done an awesome job with this

That is so cute, you did a wonderful job. I wish when my mother had made me dresses she would have picked such hip fabrics! She’s a lucky girl!
