Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Made from Simplicity 3835 a.k.a. Built By Wendy Mini Dress. This was a great project to cut my sewing teeth on. It was just challenging enough, employing some basic shaping, sewing curves and set in sleeves. I am overall very happy with how this came out!

Material Notes
I used this keen homespun plaid cotton. Classy stuff.

Thank you! I’m a little concerned about the accentuation of the boobage, though. I’m a busty gal and definitely do not need to draw any more attention to that particular…erm…hemisphere.

Looks good. I am a big fan of tunics like that. I like the narrow sleeves.

Nothing fancy, and yet the plaid makes it so cute! It looks very well put together too! And congratulate the photographer – great job!!!
