Buy the Ermine Blouse sewing pattern from Fibre Mood. For Ermine, the designer started with simple set-in sleeves, a round neckline, a separate button placket, and bias tape for the neckline finish. But then it was impossible not to add a romantic flourish! The triangular yoke features sweet gathers at the bottom. Stay understated and make Ermine in a simple solid, or turn up the sound with a print explosion. The outfit options are myriad in combination with trousers or a skirt. The more cheerful, the better! This sewing pattern is available to buy in the following formats: – PDF (available to download immediately after purchase). What is a PDF? – PDF pattern + Printed A0 copy shop (We print out the A0 pattern sheets, but you’ll need to download the digital instructions, as we don’t print these. The PDF files will be emailed immediately after purchase, and the A0 pattern sheets will be dispatched next working day). What is Copy Shop? Suggested fabrics: Ermine works well in all kinds of different fabrics, from drapey viscose (crepe), lyocell, and silk to somewhat stiffer fabrics like poplin, chambray, lace, and fine or baby wale corduroy. This pattern is a treat in solids and colourful prints alike. Wovens will produce the nicest result given the blouse's delicate details. Fabric requirements: 110 cm wide fabric: 185 - 270 cm // 140 cm wide fabric: 155 - 210 cm. Sizing: XS – XXXL (approx. UK 6 – 28/30, based on our standardised size chart).

DIY Slim Laptop Bag 13″ This is a slim bag that fits a 13-inch laptop. This bag has a zip pocket on the front and two pockets on the back. ...

I am 5'2" necessitating LOTS of hemming and shortening of pants, skirts, and dresses. I just can't find anything the right length. If you've ever priced the cost of professional seamstresses (and add in the time it takes to get your clothing back), it costs a fortune to have everything you buy hemmed. I learned years ago how to hem pants and skirts, but jeans always gave me grief. A couple of years ago my older sister showed me a pair of her jeans that she had hemmed professionally, and it was easy to see how it was done. The difference is that jeans typically have a worn edge. The hem is decorative, so cutting that edge off to shorten them takes away part of the character you're paying for. So I developed a tutorial for hemming jeans the way professional would. Hope you find this helpful! What you'll need: sewing machine dark thread to match the jeans iron straight pins measuring tape scissors The Process: You'll need to measure the desired length of the jeans. The easiest way I've found to do this is to have the person stand on a chair and scoot back so the heel of their shoes is even with the edge of the chair. It might be helpful to note that you definitely need to have them wear the shoes they'd typically wear with the jeans. I prefer to hem the jeans to the ground. So, using a safety pin or water-soluble marking pen, mark the desired length (in my case, where the shoe ends and the chair begins). Next, measure the amount you'll need to shorten them from the edge of the current hem to the mark you've made. In the jeans in this tutorial, they needed to be shortened 2 1/2 inches. Lay the jeans flat on a hard surface, and measure up the desired length (2 1/2 inches here) from the stitching on the current hem. Since the current hem will remain in place, that half inch or so will also remain. So, if you measure from the edge of your jeans, they'll still be a half an inch too long after hemming. Make sense? Now place a straight pin to mark. Next you'll fold the edge of your jeans up into a cuff matching the current stitching to just above the pin like this. Pin in place. To check your accuracy, divide your total amount needed to shorten (2 1/2 inches for me) by 2 (equalling 1 1/4 inches in my case). Measure from the fold to just under the current stitching making sure this amount is half of the amount you need to take it in. Next, keeping this length consistent, pin all the way around the cuff. Measure as you go to make sure you're still consistent. Repeat these steps on the second leg. When both legs are securely pinned, move the pants to your sewing machine. Carefully stitch in the ditch just along the fold of the current hem. Make sure to get as close to this fold as possible being careful not to sew on top of it or across the current stitching. Stitch all the way around backstitching where you stop and start. Repeat this step for the other leg. Remove your jeans from the machine, and turn the cuff up to the inside of the leg like this. With a steaming hot iron, press this new seam from the inside all the way around each leg. Now turn the pants inside-out revealing the new cuff on the inside of the leg. Using super sharp scissors, cut the cuff about a quarter inch from your stitching. Turn the jeans right-side-out, and iron again if necessary to reveal your finished hem. Easy, and your seam is almost invisible! As always, please feel free to comment with questions, and I'll do my best to answer.

"Trek je kind eens een ZAK aan!" was de titel van een blogbericht bij Toertjes & pateekes. Ik was meteen dol op dat pakje! Mijn dochter is ongeveer even oud als haar jongste dochter, toen ze de tutorial postte wou ik er meteen aan beginnen. Dus nam ik een groot vel papier en Amelie ging liggen... tot daar volgde ik die handleiding. De zak-jumpsuit van Debora is gevoerd en heeft plooitjes bovenaan, maar voor de zomer vind ik 2 lagen stof veel warm. Dus ging ik mijn eigen weg, à la minute verzon ik de werkwijze. Mijn handleiding in een notendop: Zijnaden sluiten Binnenbeennaad sluiten Onder de oksels 1 cm omstikken met tweelingnaald Vooraan 3 cm omstikken met tweelingnaald zodat er een tunnel ontstaat Achteraan 3 cm omstikken zodat er een tunnel ontstaat De broekspijpjes 1 cm omstikken Een koord maken (of kopen) en door de tunnel rijgen Aandoen en strik inleggen Dit is een jumpsuit die Amelie zelf kan aan- en uitdoen omdat de koord (van tricot) mee rekt, ze kan die over haar schouders trekken zonder de strik open te maken. Veel handiger dan de ally jumpsuit die ik eerder maakte. Amelie is er suuuuuper schattig mee dus ik waarschuw u op voorhand voor de overload aan foto's! Als je iets maakt met een handleiding of patroon van handmade mieke mag je een foto mailen naar [email protected], dan zet ik jouw foto in het mapje met voorbeelden/inspiratie en kan iedereen jouw werk bewonderen!
