Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This is a little button up top I made for warmer fall days. It has elastic shirring around the waist and lots of drape. The print has grown on me, and I especially appreciate that it can be worn with a high waisted skirt or jeans.
The skirt was made about a year ago, based off of the tulip skirt by Wiksten Made.

That’s a very sweet top, and I think I particularly like it worn not tucked in – that way you notice the shirring and the shape. Is that a knit fabric? I’ve never tried to do buttonholes in a knit!

Thanks for the kind words! It was labeled “stretch rayon knit”, and was slightly stretchy- I just used a thick interfacing to help the fabric through with the button holes.
