Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I sure hope you aren’t sick of seeing my dresses, because that’s all I’m making as of late! This one was quite easy, and I’m happy with the way it turned out. Can you believe that it was upcycled from a soft curtain? An easy, 99 cent dress :) I made the back different by placing the straps diagonally and closer together. Other than that, I stuck close to the pattern. I would recommend this to beginners, it was pretty simple.
On the day Stephen and I took these photos, it was so cold at the water! By the end of the shoot, I was running to my jacket!

This is such a sweet dress – no one would guess it used to be a curtain! I am sooo jealous of your northern hemisphere summer too!
