Description

The first dress I made when the sewing fever hit last winter. Sewn mostly by hand out of another vintage store fabric, chintz, maybe? I have a hard time naming fabrics as I usually just refer to them IRL as “this nice one, come feel it for yourself”. Something about the colours reminded me of soviet styles, hence the name.

Edit:pattern based on model 128 from the 08/2009 Burda.
