Description

I inherited this fabric from a wonderful woman who is sadly no longer with us – but everytime I wear this dress I think of her and it instantly makes me happy!! The pattern that I used happened to use the exact same material for the example on the cover! So I was pretty proud of it when I finished it and it looked exactly like the pattern!

Material Notes

Cotton stripe fabric from Jan. Pattern - Burda 7949

    This is beautiful and however did you get those stripes to match up? It fits you so well.

      Thank you!! Well, when I was cutting it out, I made sure the stripes for the two layers lined up exactly, that way when I sewed it they’d match up :)

    This is awesome! The stripes make the seams more prominent, but in a good way. :D

      I accidently posted the answer rather than replying and wasn’t sure whether it would notify you of it.. :P So just in case… – It’s Burda 7949
