Burda 5864

Burda is back with some clothing that will become a staple to your wardrobe.  Both the dress and tunic top in a trendy wrap look are the perfect pieces to flatter feminine curves. The full skirt skims your mid-section, an elastic casing gives it shape. The long dress features comfortable side slits. Shoulder tabs are an eye-catching detail on both styles.

If you are looking for that top that looks great as casual and dressy, look no further than Burda 5886. These tops are quite unique – a beautiful neckline and the asymmetric design with a twist give them a special touch. The sleeves are slim fitting and either long or 3/4-length with a flounce to make the difference.

Nothing here of interest, just as well I no longer bother to look at the big 4's offering as it is usually rubbish. Since I have been using more independent patterns I can't believe how much better they are! Now I can set in a sleeve (sensible seam allowances and amount of ease), put on a collar that I would actually consider wearing (again ease and seam allowances), no longer need to be constantly trimming seam allowances to what they should have been in the beginning, and I am starting to wonder what my seam ripper was actually used for!!!

How nice to Butterick's B6939 being reissued. My mother made this back in the late 1950's. It was a great look and very practical for weekend picnics etc.
