Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I wanted to learn how to measure and cut my own pattern, so this was my practice project.
Material Notes
I used waterproof tablecloth cotton back material I found at WalMart for 2.50 a yard and some ribbon.

Thank you again, Mary! That means so much to me. I’m very proud of this piece since I didn’t use a store bought pattern. The grosgrain ribbon does the trick! I did add a ribbon to the interior neck line to give it a more finished look.
Thank you again. Looks to me like you really know how to sew. I love your gold number!
