These patterns are known to be quite difficult because there aren't any instructions, and the seam allowance is not included. I often sew Burda patterns from the actual magazine. You have to trace your color coded pattern size, add 5/8 seam allowances and read instructions without picture illustrations. I figured that since I have conquered my fear of sewing Burda patterns, that Marfy would definitely be worth giving a try.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18258785168232613624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699537904435529619.post-32636502364405140782014-01-24T17:29:12.276-08:002014-01-24T17:29:12.276-08:00Me, I am in.

This is not easy, I have already made four mockups of the bodice, and it still isn't right, but getting closer. I have wanted and needed a new coat/raincoat for years, and what stops me is not having a pattern that fits well enough to function.
