Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This is my new summer dress pattern… I came up with it myself and you can find lots more pictures and a full tutorial – pattern – how-to on my blog Of Dreams and Seams
I’d love to hear from you if you make it! I hope my instructions are clear enough and I hope the pattern works out for all kinds of shapes and sizes, as I think it should… It is amazingly comfortable to wear, and what I probably like most about it is that it has no low neck, no super short skirt, nor is it super tight – and yet somehow it manages to be quite a sexy little number ;-)
Oh and by the way, it is a super simple, quick sew!
