Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Adapted from several paper patterns to become an original! I will be making these to sell on Etsy.
Material Notes
I used kimono silk I found at aglais.com.au, and upcycled a wool skirt, the back of which I had burned standing too close to the combustion stove… a la Jo from Louisa May Alcott’s ‘Little Women’ :) It was a favourite skirt, so I’m glad it could become inspiration for something new!
