Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Inspired by my new found love for Portlandia… I got this bird print jersey from Girl Charlee and made this Simplicity 4704, a really cute mock-wrap dress with princess seams. This one turned out a bit large on me, I cut a 14, so I would go down one, maybe two sizes next time. Still, I do love this version!

So cute! And I also love Portlandia… So funny!
We visited Portland last summer for the first time and after about 20 minutes, I was already planning to get a half-sleeve tattoo, lol!
