Burda Style For people who sew

Straps
Fold the straps lengthwise, right side inside. Stitch the edges on top of each other according to the drawing; an opening needs to be left to turn it over. Turn it inside out. Then baste the edges, press and stitch narrowly, thereby stitching over the seam opening. Adjust the strap length and button position when trying the jumper on. Apply a BUTTONHOLE onto the strap ends. Sew the BUTTONS onto the front and back placket. Button the straps (a).

Hemline
Neaten the hemline, fold inside, press. Pin the pleats at the hem that meets the fold line. Press (b). Stitch the hemline approximately 1/2 “ (1 cm) from the edge, thereby also stitching the pleats ©.
