Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I made this Colette Patterns Beignet from ivory gabardine. I used an ivory cotton for the pockets and a white rayon for the lining. The buttons are my favorite part. They are a lovely ivory that blends perfectly with the gabardine, but they have little silver flecks on them that give them a bit of life.
You can read more on my blog, Sew Well.
Material Notes
Ivory gabardine shell, ivory cotton pockets, white rayon lining, a bit of interfacing, and ten silver-flecked ivory shell buttons.
