Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I made this dress in a five hour rush of creativity. It’s my third piece, and it might be my favorite. I love the material, its a great pattern, and I love the design. I made this dress without a pattern. And it only cost about $4 for this fabric, and I still have about a yard left.
Material Notes
Cotton patterned fabric, thread, elastic.

This is a gorgeous dress you’ve made! congratulations. It’s similar to one I’ve been thinking up in my head for weeks, apart from a few details and completely different fabric. keep those creative rushes up, they turn out great results!

What a cute summer dress! I love the fabric , and the fact that you didn’t use a pattern is awesome. Great job!
