Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I made this dress to celebrate my 21st birthday on the 4th of July.
I first wore it at my birthday party which was 2 days before I left, and again on the day in New York City!
I took the pattern for this dress off my favourite store bought dress and altered it slightly.
The print is ‘Rocket Rascals’ by Michael Miller, my all-time favourite print!
And of course, what dress of mine would be complete without a matching bow?!
