Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I made this dress last fall using KWIK SEW 3380 B. I like the classic shape of the dress and the A-line skirt.
This was my first time making a fitted dress. It was fun to make and it is very comfortable to wear.
Material Notes
I used quilting cotton. I was not sure about the fabric choice. My fabric has purple and red flowers. Does it look too loud? Next time I want to use a solid color fabric.

The fabric doesn’t look too loud, it’s just right. Well done!
