Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This is my first make of the Lonsdale dress from Sewaholic Patterns. I fully lined the dress and the skirt. I omitted the bow tied at the back with the straps and instead sewed the straps into the bodice at the back. I folded the straps in half before sewing them down which I think has worked out quite well. I used an invisible zipper and enclosed it within the lining and bodice facing pieces.
Material Notes
Cotton gingham (possibly cotton blend)
