My first BurdaStyle project! Unfortunately it came out waaay to big for me so I have taken quite a bit off the sides. It would have been a lot better in a drapier fabric. The sleeves were a bit flouncy for me so I got rid of them and using bias binding instead.

Lovely! I’m a big bias-binding fan- it’s such a good way of not having to have facings, which I hate. Awesome fabric!
