Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I started this project late at night, just for fun. Luckily, it was really easy! It’s Mcalls 5318. The fit is great, but I am only 5’2, so anyone taller would probably need to add some inches to the length. You can read more, and see the story behind the name on my blog, experiments and accidents.

Nope! I believe the pattern is still in stores. The styling on the package is awful, but the shapes are great.
