My first ever BurdaStyle pattern. I’d been looking for a nice waistcoat pattern for ages, so when I found this one, I had to give it a go!
It was a little shorter than I was anticipating, but turned out pretty good, and is just what I wanted.
Velvet, taffeta, lining material and some pretty cotton off my Granny.
