This is a dress based on 1/2013 Burdastyle pattern # 104. It’s made of a boucle tweed which is kind of a pain to work with because it frays so easily. I serged all my edges to keep it from becoming a frayed nightmare. Good pattern to work with.
I cut a size 18 and I didn’t alter it much but I did shorten by 3 inches.
1.5 yards boucle, 1.5 lining, 22 inch invisible zip, interfacing, thread, two buttons
