Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I was invited to a friend’s 60th birthday party with very little notice. I couldn’t think of anything in my closet that I wanted to wear or that might be appropriate, so I thought I’d check my stash of patterns and fabric to see if I could whip up a cool cotton dress. (The weather was really hot!) I succeeded in finishing the dress in time.
