Trying to pick the pattern . . .

I have this fun rayon burn-out fabric from GorgeousFabric.com and I’ve been trying to figure out to use it. It’s a border print so it’s been kind of hard to use. It’s very see through so I’ll have to line it with something. I think a white or light color will really make the burn-out areas really stand out.

Here’s a larger section so you can see the border.

I think I’ve decided to make an A-line skirt out of it. I’ve narrowed it down to these choices in Burda. Had anyone figure out how to find the technical drawings now? When they changed their website to BurdaStyle, a bunch of good stuff went away. Now I go to the Russian site to see the tech drawings of the older Burdas. It’s actually not too bad because they go all the way back to 2001.

What do you guys think? I’m leaning toward the 12-2010-123 with a little added length or the 09-2009-126. I don’t think either one will mess up the print too much.
