A 60ies pattern in a 70ies fabric

I've sewn this little dress a while ago, but yesterday I finally made pictures. The fabric is a gorgeous polyester knitt from the 70ies. I found it on Dawanda (you could say it's the german etsy), but unfortunately there was only 1 meter available. I picked a pattern from a german Burda from 1968 and made quite a few changes.

 That's the original dress from Burda.

Here's a picture of the fabric. Isn't it lovely?

I really like this dress and most of all the buttons :)

Well, I hope you like it!

Orange Daisy Dress

This is my first time to show a dress that I've sewn myself on this blog. It's from a lovely light orange cotton with little Daisys on it. I used the Jackie O pattern from the Burdastyle Book "Sewing Vintage modern" and drafted the collar myself. The collar goes all the way back but I forgot to take a picture. Sadly the pictures didn't turn out to well, but I hope next time they will.

Actually the collar is identical but one side looks smaller on the photo.
