Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Casual knit dress with gathering at the bust and decorative banding on sleeves and bottom. From the magazine…“Sew up a holiday mood together with your new dress! Red bands glow on its sleeves and hem while decorative draping accentuates the seductive neckline. This dress also possesses another very attractive aspect; it’s quick and easy to make.”

Sieht super aus! Die Farben zum dunklen Teint sind so schön. Habe auch gerade die Geschichte dieses ’Baby’s’ gelesen und das Problem mit solchem superelastischen Jersey kenne ich auch. ;)

This looks great. I went to your blog to read up on your ET dress. I’m glad I did. I just purchased some super-stretch (4-way) knit. I will be very careful. Thanks for the advice. Cordially, Nehmah
