Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I’ve been collecting vintage pattern magazines lately but so far, I’ve only looked at them for inspiration. I’m always drafting my own patterns. This time, I decided to have a go at a dress pattern from Dutch sewing magazine Marion from the 1950’s. With this result.
More pictures and the full story, both of the pattern I chose, and of the dress itself are at my blog.
