Burda Style For people who sew
Description
A classic summer dress – a fitted bodice with a full skirt that twirls nicely! This wasn’t very difficult to sew, although it was fiddly to get the bodice pieces sewn in neatly at the bust point. More details over at my blog: www.loweryourpresserfoot.blogspot.com
Material Notes
A border print cotton in bright mustard yellow and black graphic print.
