Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This dress was super easy to make. I’m trying to think of a way to modify it a bit, so that the elastic doesn’t ride up (maybe cutting the armholes further in at the shoulders?).
Material Notes
vintage cotton from my mom's stash (likely late 70's).

Good job – looks cute and well-fitting. I’m working on my first-ever anda and would be thrilled if it turns out this well!
