hey betty! i’ve been on the website burda style a whole bunch this week, and it’s my new favorite thing! they have a bunch of patterns available for you to print at home, for very small fees or even for free! a personal favorite of mine is the coffee date dress, which is super easy for novice sewers, and is (get this) totally free!
so how does this tie into our earth week theme? well, since you print your patterns at home, it’s up to you to choose what type of paper you print on! i’ve found the best weight paper for this is actually old newsprint. all you have to do it cut it down to the size of copy paper, pop it in your printer, and print out the patterns. voila! you have a free, eco-friendly pattern for a really amazing dress!
have fun and keep looking for eco-chic projects! everyday is earthday!
