Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This was a very quick project which I started yesterday :).
I used leftover fabric from my mother-in-law-to-be and some rest IKEA fabric.
I used the original sleeves and cut them half-rounded instead square.
I´m very happy with the result!
Material Notes
purple polka dot and white cotton

This is a cute version of Desira. I like how the sleeves are turned out. This one looks much nicer than the original version.

Thank you all for your nice comments!
Mira: the trick how I fixed it, is that I sewed the belt 3 times on the blouse (on each sideseam and at the front of the right side from the blouse).

I did a Desira but I like yours much better. I’m going to try again in cotton with the contrasting fabric.

This came out very cute! Nice moved on the sleeves.
Desira is my love and hate relationship,
I love the wrap part dearly but I dislike the original sleeves.
It reminds me of crews in Star trek’s ship.

Beautiful! I love the color on you; and the style is so flattering!

Looks great – I really like your sleeves! May I ask, how did you get the front to sit together so well? I used press studs on the front, and I don’t like how it is only connected at so few points- but i don’t want to put press studs everywhere as I’ve recently discovered that I don’t like press studs!
