Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I made this for my “sewing proficiency” requirement for my school application. Made from cute vintage fabric I found at the Salvation Army last summer.
I made a few modifications to modernize it a bit. I left out the sleeve cuffs, shortened it, and made a belt instead of doing an elastic waistband.

very fresh and summery! i like the little gathers on the shoulders and your switching from elastic to a belt was a great idea.
