Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I just love it!
Of all the things I have made for myself, this is the one that I am proudest of. I love the orange buttons. I love the fabric even though it is a deadly slippery polyester and I cursed the whole way through sewing it. Tilly recommends that you use something that is not slippery if you are a beginner. She definitely knows what she is talking about and I suggest you take her advice. Having said that the instructions are so clear that even I, as a beginner, was able to steam through with no other problems apart from the ones caused by my fabric choice.
The pattern is this one – Mathilde Blouse
