Burda Style For people who sew
Description
a summer wrap dress made out of and lined with a light paisley printed cotton. The seams are finished using the Hong Kong finish. I tried it with sleeves but wasn’t feeling it, so I cut them off in the end.

Dear redredhoodie……thanks for the info about the fabric. I’ve messaged Auds to see what she might know.

This is GORGEOUS!
I am coveting the fabric also…….do you have any scraps with the selvedge edge on it which would indicate the fabric company and/or name of the print? I think I’ve seen the fabric before, but now that I’ve seen your lovely dress I can’t remember where I DID see it…….any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you a lot, Tessi. (Un)fortunately this was a gift from a fellow blogger and I used it all up and threw away the leftovers. But maybe you can ask her, her name is “auds” here on Burdastyle.

Beautiful!! I like this dress better without the sleeves. Great fabric too.
