Chambray Burda

For this month’s Minerva project I picked out some gorgeous striped chambray to make yet another button-front dress. The pattern is Burda 7078 with a couple of adjustments. It’s one of those patterns where the sample photographs aren’t particularly inspiring but the line drawing shows promise. I made a mix of the two views – the skirt and sleeveless bodice of A with the button-through front of B – and also extended out the shoulders by a couple of inches to add little cut-on cap sleeves. The funny thing is one of the things that initially attracted me to the pattern was the waist ties, but I actually removed...
