I wanted to make a really basic shaped dress and decorate it with fabric flowers.
I had sketched it a long time ago but still needed to find the perfect pattern and the perfect fabric. It’s now done ;-)
the pattern I used comes from the April 2011 Burda magazine (dress #135)
Linen and Lace

Looks soooo good… I almost cried when saw, that this pattern comes for plus sized gals :7 Still, I might use the neckline pleating detail one day…. Fits you very well, by the way! ;)
