Burda Style For people who sew
Description
As part of my New Year’s resolution to sew with more “difficult” fabrics, I finally pulled out this length of polyester satin that I’ve had in the stash for a few years. I cut a quick A-line skirt with a center back zip and a high waist. For the life of me I couldn’t get the invisible zip to insert properly; after multiple tries I just left it ripply :\
I like how the materials drapes and the high waist, but am not such a fan of how wrinkly the material is. Somehow it won’t hold a crease when you iron it, but it will hold creases from the cat sitting on it. Still, it’s the most grown-up thing I’ve made in a while.
