Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I’m working on a bandage style cocktail dress, each panel needs to be pleated, basted, and hand sewn into place. I just finished basting the front together, so now it’s time to start on the back. I’ve been working on the project for about a month now.

It looks really good and interesting and it looks like it was a lot of work-also sounds like that. Waiting to see the back when it’s finished!
