Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I purchased this fabric in Vietnam during my summer vacation last month. This has beautiful asian style painting. I wanted to keep only white for upper bocide, sleevs and flowers on bottom of skirt. these flowers are printed regularly between few centimeter gap and diagonal. so i spent most of time for match color and pattern. also to avoid flowers come to somewhere on upper dress and sleeves..
I altered pattern from my last project. lowered front neck. raised back neck. made 1.5cm more narrow sleeves. hand stitched hemline. lined only upper part of dress.

Beautiful dress. I love simple cut with the bold print on the fabric, and that you kept the print on just the bottom.
