Este ano retomei o projecto e terminei-o há cerca de um mês. Trata-se de um rectângulo em liga com as dimensões aproximadas de 50x100 cm onde no final se une o final do trabalho com a volta inicial ao rematar. Neste caso também adicionei uma corrente de croché numa das extremidades do tubo resultante, para poder aconchegar melhor ao pescoço. Usei agulhas de 10mm e fio acrílico (3 fios juntos) para obter este efeito bem volumoso. Podem ver mais fotos minhas a usá-lo &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/12/2011-12-13-royal-blue-snood-diy.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;.

This snood was started last winter and put aside because the winter was over before I could finish it. This year I resumed the project and was able to finish it about one month ago. It's basically a 40x20 inch rectangle knitted in garter stitch with the two shorter ends joined together. I also threaded a chain cord along one of the ends of the resulting tube, to be able to snug it around my neck. I used US15 (10mm) needles and three strands of yarn (100% acrylic) to obtain this chunky effect. You can see photos of me wearing it &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/12/2011-12-13-royal-blue-snood-diy.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.

O molde está escalado em 3 tamanhos (P, M e L – ver especificações na página ETSY do molde), eu cortei o M. É fornecido numa folha contínua de papel vegetal e contém já margens de costura (1,5cm) e bainhas (5cm), pronto a cortar e a colocar sobre o tecido. Também são fornecidos moldes para cortar o forro do casaco.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-EbYajDQq3VM/TtkPALxkRwI/AAAAAAAAMgw/YnlRaJOUXvY/s1600/02Pattern.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-EbYajDQq3VM/TtkPALxkRwI/AAAAAAAAMgw/YnlRaJOUXvY/s400/02Pattern.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Tecido usado:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Misto de lã e poliéster, efeito “lã feltrada”, comprado na Feira dos Tecidos a 19,95€/m.

Quanto ao forro, leva praticamente a mesma metragem.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mais fotos do casaco:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/--iRrNEpj2s0/TtkPDbeFZ2I/AAAAAAAAMg8/5uLbaEH-EtM/s1600/03View1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/--iRrNEpj2s0/TtkPDbeFZ2I/AAAAAAAAMg8/5uLbaEH-EtM/s400/03View1.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MS28nviEAlw/TtkPJCMuM_I/AAAAAAAAMhI/XBrXGNpPn8Y/s1600/04View2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MS28nviEAlw/TtkPJCMuM_I/AAAAAAAAMhI/XBrXGNpPn8Y/s400/04View2.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Confecção:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Este casaco é relativamente fácil de confeccionar (o molde não vem com instruções) e o Paco publicou já alguns passo-a-passos muito úteis:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Artigo sobre a confecção do Casaco T: &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2011/01/patron-abrigo-t-t-coat-pattern.html"&gt;http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2011/01/patron-abrigo-t-t-coat-pattern.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Artigo sobre a confecção industrial (para verem como se aplica o forro ao casaco, obtendo um acabamento industrial): &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2008/01/chaqueta-confeccin-industrial.html"&gt;http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2008/01/chaqueta-confeccin-industrial.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Artigo sobre a confecção de bolsos metidos na costura: &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2010/10/bolsillos-integrados-en-las-costuras.html"&gt;http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2010/10/bolsillos-integrados-en-las-costuras.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aqui vou listar os principais passos na ordem como os segui e também mostrar o processo de aplicação da gola em pé ao casaco:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1º Apliquei entretela termo-colante suave na gola, nas frentes (ao longo do meio da frente e também na vista incorporada, nas bainhas do casaco e das mangas. Apliquei também tiras de entretela para reforçar a entrada dos bolsos.&lt;br /&gt;2º - Cosi o encaixe da frente às partes de baixo da frente, deixando a abertura para a casa de botão na frente direita e na respectiva vista incorporada&lt;br /&gt;3º - Cosi a costura do meio das costas&lt;br /&gt;4º - Cosi as costuras dos ombros&lt;br /&gt;5º - Cosi as mangas abertas na costura das cavas&lt;br /&gt;6º - Reforcei todo o decote com um pesponto&lt;br /&gt;7º - Cosi as costuras laterais do casaco (deixando as aberturas para os bolsos) e, em continuação, as costuras das mangas&lt;br /&gt;8º - Confeccionei os bolsos metidos na costura&lt;br /&gt;9º - Cosi o encaixe da frente em forro às partes inferiores da frente&lt;br /&gt;10º - Cosi as partes da frente em forro às vistas da frente&lt;br /&gt;11º - Cosi a costura do meio de trás do forro, deixando uma prega como indicado no molde; reforcei o decote com um pesponto&lt;br /&gt;12º – Cosi a costura dos ombros das costas em forro aos ombros da frente+ vistas, obtendo uma abertura circular, onde se aplicará a gola em pé:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--ZConhiuIHI/TtkPNLgkcKI/AAAAAAAAMhU/3kZGFWX18MI/s1600/05Collar1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--ZConhiuIHI/TtkPNLgkcKI/AAAAAAAAMhU/3kZGFWX18MI/s400/05Collar1.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-RPpY5TOwod8/TtkPRAJDlwI/AAAAAAAAMhg/euht4IgERMk/s1600/06Collar2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-RPpY5TOwod8/TtkPRAJDlwI/AAAAAAAAMhg/euht4IgERMk/s400/06Collar2.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;13º – Cosi e virei a gola, golpeando nos cantos:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-X8QgALqZ53g/TtkPWV2nbuI/AAAAAAAAMhs/PtV7u2b6JKc/s1600/07Collar3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-X8QgALqZ53g/TtkPWV2nbuI/AAAAAAAAMhs/PtV7u2b6JKc/s400/07Collar3.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;14º - Inseri a gola na abertura, golpeando ao longo dos valores de costura da abertura, reforçados com um pesponto:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YAuXJe7mJpQ/TtkPaQOQ7AI/AAAAAAAAMh4/3Cmg37hPmVI/s1600/08Collar4.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YAuXJe7mJpQ/TtkPaQOQ7AI/AAAAAAAAMh4/3Cmg37hPmVI/s400/08Collar4.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-75BtIsn5cJY/TtkPeIb8wlI/AAAAAAAAMiE/lhjG2CJiV0U/s1600/09Collar5.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-75BtIsn5cJY/TtkPeIb8wlI/AAAAAAAAMiE/lhjG2CJiV0U/s400/09Collar5.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;15º - Depois de coser a toda a volta (não esquecer de deixar as aberturas para a casa de botão aqui também), dei uns piques nos valores de costura da gola, abri as costuras a ferro evirei tudo para o direito. Cosi as costuras sobrepostas com pontos atrás mesmo na linha da costura e assentei tudo a ferro:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-GqTFgf8Nla4/TtkPh-IfIAI/AAAAAAAAMiQ/c2I1mUyYTYM/s1600/10Collar6.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-GqTFgf8Nla4/TtkPh-IfIAI/AAAAAAAAMiQ/c2I1mUyYTYM/s400/10Collar6.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;16º - Prossegui com a confecção do forro, cosendo as mangas às cavas e depois fechando a costura lateral e a das mangas na continuação. Deixei uma abertura no forro numa das mangas, para poder virar o casaco depois de aplicar o forro pelo método industrial&lt;br /&gt;17º - Apliquei o forro pelo método industrial, virei o casaco para o direito, alinhavei todas as bainhas no lugar, alinhavei também as vistas da frente à frente na sua posição definitiva, virei de novo para o avesso, cosi as bainhas à mão, cosi as vistas à frente do casaco, tudo no avesso. Depois foi só virar o casaco para o direito pela abertura no forro e fechar a abertura com pontos à mão.&lt;br /&gt;18º - Dei uns pontos invisíveis à mão nas casas de botão e apliquei os botões; depois de uma última passagem a ferro ao casaco e ao forro, o trabalho está concluído!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Modificações ao molde:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; As mangas na opção A são bastante compridas; acabei por fazê-las mais curtas 6cm, obtendo assim umas bainhas mais largas que permitem usar as mangas com punhos virados, como mostro a seguir:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Wbk2VjPrJ6Y/TtkPmhcbB7I/AAAAAAAAMic/R3NPsOPz5eQ/s1600/11Turnups.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Wbk2VjPrJ6Y/TtkPmhcbB7I/AAAAAAAAMic/R3NPsOPz5eQ/s400/11Turnups.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Mais detalhes:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Os botões são muito giros na minha opinião:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Um excelente molde, como aliás o Paco nos tem habituado e para casaco é dos mais fáceis de confeccionar, uma vez que o molde é simples (a gola é bastante fácil, os bolsos idem, e não tem detalhes muito difíceis). Gosto do estilo minimalista e recto, das linhas puras que ao mesmo tempo respeitam a anatomia do corpo e creio que o resultado final foi bem conseguido. Como sempre, podem ver-me a usar este casaco &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/12/2011-12-02-turquoise-beauty-beleza.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;.

It features dropped shoulder and two options for the sleeves: long or ¾ with turn-ups (there are cutting lines for both options on the pattern, and for the lining as well)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Pattern:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Haute-Couture Original by Paco Peralta (available for sale &lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/66040732/t-coat-pattern-special-price-for-this"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;). The pattern comes graded in three sizes (S, M and L – specifics on the patterns webpage) and I cut the M. It’s drafted by hand on a continuous pattern paper and includes 5/8 seam allowances and 2” hem allowances, ready to be cut and placed on the fabric. The lining pattern is also included.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-EbYajDQq3VM/TtkPALxkRwI/AAAAAAAAMgw/YnlRaJOUXvY/s1600/02Pattern.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-EbYajDQq3VM/TtkPALxkRwI/AAAAAAAAMgw/YnlRaJOUXvY/s400/02Pattern.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Fabric:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Wool/polyester blend, sort of boiled wool finished, bought locally. I used 2.5 yards of fabric and roughly the same in lining (buy extra fabric, to be safe).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A couple more pictures of the finished coat:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

This is an easy project (I mean for a coat; it’s important to know that this pattern doesn’t include instructions or cutting layouts) and Paco already published some useful tutorials that provide good insight on how to make this coat:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Making the T coat: &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2011/01/patron-abrigo-t-t-coat-pattern.html"&gt;http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2011/01/patron-abrigo-t-t-coat-pattern.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The industrial method (great bagging tutorial): &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2008/01/chaqueta-confeccin-industrial.html"&gt;http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2008/01/chaqueta-confeccin-industrial.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In-seam pocket how-to: &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2010/10/bolsillos-integrados-en-las-costuras.html"&gt;http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2010/10/bolsillos-integrados-en-las-costuras.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the present article I will describe the main steps and construction order that I used, showing in more detail the making of the stand-up collar:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1º Apply interfacings (I used soft fusible interfacing, similar to pro-weft interfacing): collar, facings, along center front (roughly facing wide), hem allowances (5 inches wide) and pocket openings.&lt;br /&gt;2º - Stitch the front yoke/facing to the bottom front/facing, leaving openings for the buttonhole on both right front and facing&lt;br /&gt;3º - Stitch the center back seam&lt;br /&gt;4º - Stitch the shoulder seams&lt;br /&gt;5º - Stitch the sleeve pieces to the armholes&lt;br /&gt;6º - Reinforce the neckline stitching near the seam line (you can also reinforce the neckline with fusing tape or a strip of lining selvage; I didn’t because the collar piece is cut on the grain and it is stable enough)&lt;br /&gt;7º - Stitch the side seams (leaving the pocket openings unstitched) and the sleeves seams in a continuous step&lt;br /&gt;8º - Construct the in-seam pockets&lt;br /&gt;9º - Stitch the lining front yoke to the bottom front&lt;br /&gt;10º - Stitch the lining fronts to the front facings&lt;br /&gt;11º - Stitch the lining back seam leaving a fold for ease of movement, as indicated in the pattern&lt;br /&gt;12º –Stitch the lining back to the lining front/facing along the shoulders, obtaining a circular opening, where the collar will be later inserted:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--ZConhiuIHI/TtkPNLgkcKI/AAAAAAAAMhU/3kZGFWX18MI/s1600/05Collar1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--ZConhiuIHI/TtkPNLgkcKI/AAAAAAAAMhU/3kZGFWX18MI/s400/05Collar1.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Turn everything to the right side and backstitch on the ditch around the neckline, making sure the seams match on the right side and lining side.

I left an opening in one of the sleeve seams to be able to turn the coat/lining to the right side once the lining is bagged&lt;br /&gt;17º - I bagged the lining using the industrial method explained by Paco. Turned the coat/lining to the right side and basted the front facings in place, and all the hems; turned the coat/lining to the wrong side again and hand-tacked the hems and the front facing to the front. Turned the coat/lining to the right side, closed the lining opening and removed the bastings&lt;br /&gt;18º - Slipstitched the buttonholes by hand and stitched in the buttons; after&amp;nbsp;one last pressing the coat is finished!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Alterations:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; The only alteration was shortening the sleeves by a little more than 2”,&amp;nbsp;and because of this&amp;nbsp;I got&amp;nbsp;a wider hem allowance. This way I can also do turn-ups if desired:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Wbk2VjPrJ6Y/TtkPmhcbB7I/AAAAAAAAMic/R3NPsOPz5eQ/s1600/11Turnups.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Wbk2VjPrJ6Y/TtkPmhcbB7I/AAAAAAAAMic/R3NPsOPz5eQ/s400/11Turnups.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;More details:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I really love the buttons:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VMYe8zFUkNc/TtkPqXWMbdI/AAAAAAAAMio/3BQf1IXX558/s1600/12Buttons1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VMYe8zFUkNc/TtkPqXWMbdI/AAAAAAAAMio/3BQf1IXX558/s400/12Buttons1.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gcoxW3t-2dg/TtkPuhxboHI/AAAAAAAAMi0/5vM7viAaSzo/s1600/13Buttons2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gcoxW3t-2dg/TtkPuhxboHI/AAAAAAAAMi0/5vM7viAaSzo/s400/13Buttons2.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;The in-seam pockets:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-llDvSVHydGM/TtkPzm6mSVI/AAAAAAAAMjA/r50Dp8nUtxM/s1600/14Pockets.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="266" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-llDvSVHydGM/TtkPzm6mSVI/AAAAAAAAMjA/r50Dp8nUtxM/s400/14Pockets.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Here’s the lining:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-AVZuzHPwlsI/TtkP3dJXupI/AAAAAAAAMjM/nCFFqbXrDcc/s1600/15Lining1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-AVZuzHPwlsI/TtkP3dJXupI/AAAAAAAAMjM/nCFFqbXrDcc/s400/15Lining1.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HFzckXJ3PVY/TtkP9KnLxmI/AAAAAAAAMjY/L2NBK4O1qi8/s1600/16Lining2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HFzckXJ3PVY/TtkP9KnLxmI/AAAAAAAAMjY/L2NBK4O1qi8/s400/16Lining2.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;The facing/hem/lining corner obtained by the industrial bagging method explained by Paco:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-yDCCMo7rz58/TtkQBba7wUI/AAAAAAAAMjk/jG_9X14cu9E/s1600/17Lining3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-yDCCMo7rz58/TtkQBba7wUI/AAAAAAAAMjk/jG_9X14cu9E/s400/17Lining3.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-2KQRJa-YvY8/TtkQFH__UEI/AAAAAAAAMjw/Z134biSo_ag/s1600/18Lining4.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-2KQRJa-YvY8/TtkQFH__UEI/AAAAAAAAMjw/Z134biSo_ag/s400/18Lining4.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;The designer’s label (there’s one included with each of Paco’s patterns), along with mine:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-A9vLO-9tygI/TtkQJ6wNUQI/AAAAAAAAMj8/7JkIN4NsA7A/s1600/19Labels.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-A9vLO-9tygI/TtkQJ6wNUQI/AAAAAAAAMj8/7JkIN4NsA7A/s400/19Labels.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; This pattern is rated excellent by my book, nothing less should be expected from Paco; everything is carefully marked and labeled, all pattern pieces match perfectly. This coat is fairly easy to make (the collar is very easy, the in-seam pockets are quite straight forward as well; there aren’t any real challenging details). I like the clean straight lines, the minimalistic style yet respecting the body’s anatomical characteristics, and I believe the end result is quite outstanding. As usual, there are more pictures of me wearing this coat &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/12/2011-12-02-turquoise-beauty-beleza.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.

Para tornar o modelo único, fiz algumas alterações: uma gola alta torcida e costuras franzidas nos lados à altura da anca e nas mangas na zona do cotovelo. Mudei o plano de corte (cortando atravessado no tecido) para que as bainhas coincidissem com a aurela do tecido, evitando assim ter de coser bainhas. O molde incluí instruções para cortar uma tira estreita de remate para o decote; usando o mesmo comprimento, cortei esta tira duas vezes (uma para a gola interior e outra para a gola exterior) e muito mais larga (uns 12cm de largura). Cosi as duas tiras, direito contra direito, ao longo de uma das beiras compridas e depois cosi os extremos mais estreitos das duas tiras (direito contra direito), fechando assim a costura das costas da gola. Se fosse coser uma gola alta normal, dobrava a parte interior da gola para dentro e unia as duas partes ao decote, formando a gola; o que fiz foi apenas desencontrar a beira de dentro da gola com a de fora antes de coser tudo ao decote, obtendo assim o efeito torcido, é mesmo muito fácil. Depois é só rematar a costura por dentro e a gola fica pronta.&lt;br /&gt;Para franzir as costuras basta coser com ponto ziguezague elástico de franzir transparente às orlas das costuras por dentro, estas franzirão naturalmente.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aqui têm mais algumas fotos com detalhes:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QkKxeGBjYMc/TrwbsgObf9I/AAAAAAAAMcs/SVRLtfbVBn0/s1600/03collar1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QkKxeGBjYMc/TrwbsgObf9I/AAAAAAAAMcs/SVRLtfbVBn0/s400/03collar1.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9WcdqJKdX-I/Trwb0OPfURI/AAAAAAAAMc4/BMr9qIm_R8A/s1600/04collar2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9WcdqJKdX-I/Trwb0OPfURI/AAAAAAAAMc4/BMr9qIm_R8A/s400/04collar2.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Lng_oFpB3Lg/Trwb5SRfjlI/AAAAAAAAMdE/0oDo9meabKo/s1600/05SideSeams.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Lng_oFpB3Lg/Trwb5SRfjlI/AAAAAAAAMdE/0oDo9meabKo/s400/05SideSeams.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gZwHDj5q01k/Trwb8TK_xRI/AAAAAAAAMdQ/umfRMnid9uU/s1600/06SleeveSeam.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gZwHDj5q01k/Trwb8TK_xRI/AAAAAAAAMdQ/umfRMnid9uU/s400/06SleeveSeam.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;NOTA: Encontrei um tutorial de como debruar uma gola com vivo torcido que pode ajudar a perceber como se faz este tipo de gola, pois o princípio é o mesmo: &lt;a href="http://sewintriguing.blogspot.com/2007/05/twisted-binding.html"&gt;Sew Intriguing - Twisted binding&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NOTA2 (2011-11-13): Descobri um tutorial que explica esta técnica também &lt;a href="http://off-the-cuff-style.blogspot.com/2011/11/tutorial-spiral-cowl-collar.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Também fiz um par de calças usando o molde &lt;a href="http://mccallpattern.mccall.com/m6404-products-14667.php?page_id=114"&gt;McCalls 6404 (vista D)&lt;/a&gt;, e uma malha estável cinza clara, mas adicionei umas tiras pretas de lado, com cerca de 1,5cm de largura. Queria que as calças não ficassem tão justas (mais ao estilo calça-de-treino) e assim mais confortáveis. Também deixei uma racha na bainha, mesmo na frente da calça, para lhe dar um toque sofisticado, principalmente se usar a calça com sapatos de salto alto (stilletos). Ainda não tenho fotos da calça, mas tenciono brevemente tirar fotos com o conjunto completo para publicar no meu blogue de guarda-roupa. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finalmente, queria falar-vos de algo que me tem incomodado há já algum tempo (já mencionei o mesmo no meu outro blogue):&lt;br /&gt;Alguns amigos têm-me escrito com queixas de malware/vírus nos meus blogues; &lt;strong&gt;posso garantir com toda a certeza que os meus blogues não estão infectados&lt;/strong&gt; (tenho diagnosticado frequentemente usando as ferramentas Webmaster do blogger). Sei que há alguns problemas de compatibilidade com alguns browsers além do Internet Explorer e não posso garantir que alguns dos links na barra lateral não estejam a despoletar estes avisos. Uma solução seria eliminar a lista de blogues na barra lateral, mas preferia não ter de o fazer. Também ouvi dizer que os contadores de visitas também podem estar a despoletar avisos de vírus, mas o que realmente desconfio é que algumas firmas comerciais de venda de anti-virus estão a despoletar estes avisos para levar as pessoas a adquirir o seu software de protecção.&lt;br /&gt;Por favor digam-me se têm tido experiência de algum destes problemas nos meus blogues. Obrigada.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English101111"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-P9xo-KNWWxI/TrwbUcKEqsI/AAAAAAAAMcg/ke1SPhozvpU/s1600/01Main.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-P9xo-KNWWxI/TrwbUcKEqsI/AAAAAAAAMcg/ke1SPhozvpU/s400/01Main.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;I made this top from my TNT raglan top base pattern, the February 2010 BWOF model 112:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MnbjGZegGjs/TrwbOVSB8RI/AAAAAAAAMcU/fyXZE9WrPQ4/s1600/02BWOF201002_blusa112A_02.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="276" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MnbjGZegGjs/TrwbOVSB8RI/AAAAAAAAMcU/fyXZE9WrPQ4/s400/02BWOF201002_blusa112A_02.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;I used a very original light grey jersey fabric, slightly see-through and with some kind of wrinkle effect on it. I customized this top with a twisted collar and some shirring along the sleeve seam at the elbow and the side seams on the hip area. I changed the cutting layout so the hems coincide with the knit selvage, thus avoiding any hem seaming. The pattern includes instructions for cutting a self-fabric binding tape; instead of the required tape width, I cut the same length but much wider (as wide as the intended collar height); I cut it twice (outer collar plus inner collar). Instead of sewing it like a regular turtle-neck with a seam on the top, I did something different: first joined the two collar pieces wrong sides facing each other and stitched along one of the longer edges; then opened the sewn collar rectangle and joined the narrower edges of the outer and inner collar, wrong sides facing, thus closing the back neck seam in one single step. If you fold the inner collar to the inside, you’ll obtain a regular turtleneck that can be sewn directly to the top’s neckline. What I did differently was shifting the inner collar layer by about 3 inches before stitching the collar to the neckline, it’s this easy.&lt;br /&gt;For the shirred seams, all I did was to zigzag some clear elastic tape over the inner seam allowances.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are a few detail pictures for your viewing pleasure:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QkKxeGBjYMc/TrwbsgObf9I/AAAAAAAAMcs/SVRLtfbVBn0/s1600/03collar1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QkKxeGBjYMc/TrwbsgObf9I/AAAAAAAAMcs/SVRLtfbVBn0/s400/03collar1.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9WcdqJKdX-I/Trwb0OPfURI/AAAAAAAAMc4/BMr9qIm_R8A/s1600/04collar2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9WcdqJKdX-I/Trwb0OPfURI/AAAAAAAAMc4/BMr9qIm_R8A/s400/04collar2.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Lng_oFpB3Lg/Trwb5SRfjlI/AAAAAAAAMdE/0oDo9meabKo/s1600/05SideSeams.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Lng_oFpB3Lg/Trwb5SRfjlI/AAAAAAAAMdE/0oDo9meabKo/s400/05SideSeams.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gZwHDj5q01k/Trwb8TK_xRI/AAAAAAAAMdQ/umfRMnid9uU/s1600/06SleeveSeam.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gZwHDj5q01k/Trwb8TK_xRI/AAAAAAAAMdQ/umfRMnid9uU/s400/06SleeveSeam.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;b&gt;ETA: I found a tutorial from Liana of Sew Intruguing that applies the same principle used for making the twisted collar: &lt;a href="http://sewintriguing.blogspot.com/2007/05/twisted-binding.html"&gt;Sew Intriguing - Twisted binding&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ETA2 (2011-11-13): Found another great tutorial at Off The Cuff blog, check it out &lt;a href="http://off-the-cuff-style.blogspot.com/2011/11/tutorial-spiral-cowl-collar.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also made a pair of pants to match this top (2011#31 to be reviewed later if I find the time), using some kind of light grey pontiroma knit. I used &lt;a href="http://mccallpattern.mccall.com/m6404-products-14667.php?page_id=114"&gt;McCalls 6404 view D&lt;/a&gt; but added a black 1/2 inch wide side panel since I wanted the pants to be more relaxed and not so close fitting. At hem level I also added a front slit. I don’t have pictures of the pants yet but hopefully I’ll be able to photograph the entire outfit later this week and publish it over at my wardrobe blog.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a side note I want to address something that has been bothering me for some time, I already stated this on my other blog:&lt;br /&gt;Some friends have been writing to me complaining about malware on my blogs; &lt;strong&gt;I can assure you all that my blogs are not infected&lt;/strong&gt; (I’ve been checking regularly using blogger Webmaster tools); there are a few compatibility problems with browsers other than Internet Explorer and I can’t guarantee that some of the links on the sidebar aren’t triggering virus warnings either. One solution would be to eliminate my blogroll on the sidebar but I’d prefer not to do that. I’ve also heard that the visit counters used on most blogs also trigger these warnings, but I also suspect some virus warnings are triggered by commercial entities with the intent of convincing people to buy their anti-virus software. Please let me know by email or comment if you are experiencing any problems with my blogs and again, be reassured that my blogs are malware free. Thanks.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Couture et Tricot is licensed with a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs license&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1707374644461378032-534611985375049439?l=tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/feeds/534611985375049439/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1707374644461378032&amp;postID=534611985375049439&amp;isPopup=true' title='17 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1707374644461378032/posts/default/534611985375049439'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1707374644461378032/posts/default/534611985375049439'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/11/201131-twisted-collar-raglan-top-top.html' title='2011#31 – &lt;em&gt;Twisted collar raglan top&lt;/em&gt; – Top raglan com gola torcida'/><author><name>Tany</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01073735708031525696</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://www.friendsofpr.com/tany/Blue_Goth_Girl.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-P9xo-KNWWxI/TrwbUcKEqsI/AAAAAAAAMcg/ke1SPhozvpU/s72-c/01Main.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>17</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1707374644461378032.post-4285981262395100496</id><published>2011-11-03T16:18:00.000Z</published><updated>2011-11-03T16:18:30.389Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Crimson Dress'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='costura 2011 - 2011 Sewing Projects'/><title type='text'>2011#30 – The crimson dress – O vestido carmesim</title><content type='html'>&lt;b&gt;Português&lt;/b&gt;&lt;input value="ButtonPortuguese" onclick="portugueseexpandcollapse('Portuguese031111')" type="checkbox" checked=true&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffff33;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;em&gt;English (uncheck the other box and check this one)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;input value="ButtonEnglish" onclick="englishexpandcollapse('English031111')" type="checkbox"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postportugueseshow" id="Portuguese031111"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-qisFK_zhNos/TrK2x25KTpI/AAAAAAAAMZM/CG7g3wkXlM4/s1600/01Main.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-qisFK_zhNos/TrK2x25KTpI/AAAAAAAAMZM/CG7g3wkXlM4/s400/01Main.JPG" width="286" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;(mais fotos minhas a usar o vestido &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/10/crimson-dress.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Modelo original:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Revista BurdaStyle 10/2011, modelo 123A&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SYnYaT4_hAU/TrK2-Kzkd7I/AAAAAAAAMZY/NCBCbHuuDag/s1600/02BS201110_vestido123A.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="292" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SYnYaT4_hAU/TrK2-Kzkd7I/AAAAAAAAMZY/NCBCbHuuDag/s400/02BS201110_vestido123A.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Descrição:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Vestido cruzado de comprimento abaixo do joelho, tem mangas ajustadas com fecho invisível no punho, tiras de atar na cintura e um folho lateral drapeado&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Tecido usado:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; crepe carmesim (Feira dos tecidos); podem usar qualquer tecido ou malha suaves com bom cair.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Confecção:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Segui as instruções da revista e não tive problemas. A única coisa que fiz a mais foi reforçar as cavas além da orla superior das frentes (pode ser feito com um pesponto ou com fita Termo colante própria). Quanto a mim este vestido tem um grau de dificuldade médio. Vou mostrar alguns pormenores para no caso de o quererem fazer ficarem já a contar com o que vos espera!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O decote cruzado é reforçado por vistas:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-T4pBv4Y3glk/TrK3K2zk6DI/AAAAAAAAMZk/cEh1Ukds-Eg/s1600/03FrontNeckline.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-T4pBv4Y3glk/TrK3K2zk6DI/AAAAAAAAMZk/cEh1Ukds-Eg/s400/03FrontNeckline.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Podem ver aqui a terminação da vista (avesso) na frente direita (a que contém o folho), que cobre a pinça posicionada no extremo do pano frontal da saia (à esquerda da vista têm o folho lateral):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-jz1vBSMfeEU/TrK3UE6TClI/AAAAAAAAMZw/gmHg6vAhp00/s1600/04SkirtDart.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-jz1vBSMfeEU/TrK3UE6TClI/AAAAAAAAMZw/gmHg6vAhp00/s400/04SkirtDart.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Do lado direito podem ver a fita de atar que está presa na costura da pinça:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-21S3strxIww/TrK3cnOhlTI/AAAAAAAAMZ8/W2GRenU7K4A/s1600/05RightFront.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-21S3strxIww/TrK3cnOhlTI/AAAAAAAAMZ8/W2GRenU7K4A/s400/05RightFront.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;O lado esquerdo da frente não tem o folho, apenas a tira de atar:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-qbCOTD9lK_w/TrK3ksKEMWI/AAAAAAAAMaI/4L48xNUBXT0/s1600/06LeftFront.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-qbCOTD9lK_w/TrK3ksKEMWI/AAAAAAAAMaI/4L48xNUBXT0/s400/06LeftFront.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Toda a bainha e orlas da frente (folho incluído) foram acabadas numa orla enrolada pespontada (bainha estreita):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-JVyPm6X03Uk/TrK3tn9I18I/AAAAAAAAMaU/dxRuIPeWoMo/s1600/07EdgeFinishing.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-JVyPm6X03Uk/TrK3tn9I18I/AAAAAAAAMaU/dxRuIPeWoMo/s400/07EdgeFinishing.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Aqui podem ver um pouco melhor o folho:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YpIRZn5GfM4/TrK32RL3OXI/AAAAAAAAMag/irGI_weK6Oc/s1600/08Draping.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YpIRZn5GfM4/TrK32RL3OXI/AAAAAAAAMag/irGI_weK6Oc/s400/08Draping.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Outro detalhe diferente é o fecho invisível nas mangas, colocado na pinça de ajuste das mesmas (se não se sentirem confortáveis na aplicação do fecho podem omitir este detalhe, fechando a pinça normalmente; o punho é suficientemente largo para passar a mão):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sXKv2i0V6UI/TrK4CyqMFkI/AAAAAAAAMas/oafgGP0jLL8/s1600/09SleeveZipper.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gp8BL8T_5U4/TrK4T69jJjI/AAAAAAAAMbE/TDRa6P8k5o8/s1600/11WaistShapingPleats.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gp8BL8T_5U4/TrK4T69jJjI/AAAAAAAAMbE/TDRa6P8k5o8/s400/11WaistShapingPleats.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Conclusão:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; O resultado final é bastante aproximado às fotos da revista, no entanto estas dão a ilusão que o vestido é mais evasé do que realmente é. Gostei muito do resultado final e creio que este vestido pode facilmente ser adaptado para se usar no dia-a-dia, bastando por exemplo adicionar um colete de pelo, ou mesmo uma jaqueta mais casual, e botas ou botins. Espero que tenham gostado, uma vez mais relembro que podem ver mais fotos minhas a usar o vestido &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/10/crimson-dress.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PS – O Couture et Tricot tem agora 500 seguidores no Google Friend Connect (a caixinha de seguidores está na barra lateral direita do blog, se quiserem aderir)!

The reinforcement can be done by stitching on the SA very close to the stitching line or by fusing special purpose interfacing tape. I rate this dress as medium in difficulty level. I’ll show you some details so you’ll know what to expect if you decide to make this dress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The neckline is faced (upper front edges and back neckline):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-T4pBv4Y3glk/TrK3K2zk6DI/AAAAAAAAMZk/cEh1Ukds-Eg/s1600/03FrontNeckline.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-T4pBv4Y3glk/TrK3K2zk6DI/AAAAAAAAMZk/cEh1Ukds-Eg/s400/03FrontNeckline.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Here’s the wrong side of the right front (the one with the flounce); the facing covers a shaping dart in between the front and the flounce (the flounce is on the left, with the topstitched rolled hem):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-jz1vBSMfeEU/TrK3UE6TClI/AAAAAAAAMZw/gmHg6vAhp00/s1600/04SkirtDart.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-jz1vBSMfeEU/TrK3UE6TClI/AAAAAAAAMZw/gmHg6vAhp00/s400/04SkirtDart.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;On the right side you can see the right tie, which is caught in the shaping dart:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-21S3strxIww/TrK3cnOhlTI/AAAAAAAAMZ8/W2GRenU7K4A/s1600/05RightFront.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-21S3strxIww/TrK3cnOhlTI/AAAAAAAAMZ8/W2GRenU7K4A/s400/05RightFront.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;The left front doesn’t get a flounce; the left front will be hidden inside the dress:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-qbCOTD9lK_w/TrK3ksKEMWI/AAAAAAAAMaI/4L48xNUBXT0/s1600/06LeftFront.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-qbCOTD9lK_w/TrK3ksKEMWI/AAAAAAAAMaI/4L48xNUBXT0/s400/06LeftFront.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;The hem and lower front edges (including the draped flounce) are all finished with a rolled hem:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-JVyPm6X03Uk/TrK3tn9I18I/AAAAAAAAMaU/dxRuIPeWoMo/s1600/07EdgeFinishing.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-JVyPm6X03Uk/TrK3tn9I18I/AAAAAAAAMaU/dxRuIPeWoMo/s400/07EdgeFinishing.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;I raised the flounce so you can see how it is shaped:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YpIRZn5GfM4/TrK32RL3OXI/AAAAAAAAMag/irGI_weK6Oc/s1600/08Draping.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YpIRZn5GfM4/TrK32RL3OXI/AAAAAAAAMag/irGI_weK6Oc/s400/08Draping.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Another detail is the cuff invisible zipper, applied within the sleeve shaping dart. This detail can be omitted because if you stitch the dart without the zipper it will still be possible to slip your hand through the cuffs, they are not too narrow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sXKv2i0V6UI/TrK4CyqMFkI/AAAAAAAAMas/oafgGP0jLL8/s1600/09SleeveZipper.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sXKv2i0V6UI/TrK4CyqMFkI/AAAAAAAAMas/oafgGP0jLL8/s400/09SleeveZipper.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;The zipper on the wrong side:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-jgKEEfkVai8/TrK4JrqdViI/AAAAAAAAMa4/NIipsyC_qK4/s1600/10ZipperInside.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-jgKEEfkVai8/TrK4JrqdViI/AAAAAAAAMa4/NIipsyC_qK4/s400/10ZipperInside.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;I’m not sure you can notice it in the picture, but there is some additional shaping on the waist, managed by four topstitched pleats (two on the front and two on the back) placed where vertical darts would be on a dress:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gp8BL8T_5U4/TrK4T69jJjI/AAAAAAAAMbE/TDRa6P8k5o8/s1600/11WaistShapingPleats.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gp8BL8T_5U4/TrK4T69jJjI/AAAAAAAAMbE/TDRa6P8k5o8/s400/11WaistShapingPleats.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; The final result is pretty close to the magazine’s photos, except the dress is not as A-line as the model pictures may suggest. I really love this dress and already thought of ways of dressing it down (like adding a fur waistcoat or a causal jacket and rough boots, for example). I hope you all liked this dress as much as I did. Again, more pictures of me wearing it are published &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/10/crimson-dress.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.

text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-x9ZQxyoBJuo/Tpro2uKy5aI/AAAAAAAAMRU/LR-PyyZM6kE/s1600/Fig1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400px" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-x9ZQxyoBJuo/Tpro2uKy5aI/AAAAAAAAMRU/LR-PyyZM6kE/s400/Fig1.JPG" width="300px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Tecido usado&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;: Jersey acetinado antracite (creio que a composição seja poliéster e lycra, mas não sei as percentagens; é uma malha com cair pesado que comprei na Feira dos Tecidos; é o mesmo tipo de malha que usei para a saia meio-círculo do Paco e top raglan a condizer)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Confecção:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Creio que seria impossível documentar o processo de construção do top, que é bastante complicado, com tantas peças e drapeados (a saia, pelo contrário, é bastante simples). Há duas “reviews” excelentes acerca deste molde, onde poderão inclusivamente ver fotos do desenho das peças do molde e alguns conselhos excelentes para não se perderem na construção. Em Inglês têm um excelente artigo da Melissa Fehr:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.fehrtrade.com/gallery/508/the-vogue-1259-donna-karan-gathered-skirt-set"&gt;http://www.fehrtrade.com/gallery/508/the-vogue-1259-donna-karan-gathered-skirt-set&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A Melissa explica um pouco sobre o processo “tortuoso” de construção do top, dando dicas preciosas para não se perderem no meio de tantas peças e costuras. Outro artigo muito bom é do blogue Oui Patrons, desta vez escrito em Francês, onde a autora explica algumas modificações que fez ao molde para que este lhe assentasse melhor:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://ouipatrons.com/2011/08/28/vogue-v1259-by-donna-karan/"&gt;http://ouipatrons.com/2011/08/28/vogue-v1259-by-donna-karan/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A autora explica que no final o top não ficou tão justo na cintura como a foto do modelo original dá a entender (o que é verdade, reparei o mesmo), tendo ajustado esta peça do molde de forma a ficar mais justa. No meu caso decidi manter a forma um pouco solta do drapeado, pois não me desagradou.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Modificações:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Fiz o acabamento das costuras franzidas expostas um pouco diferente; em vez de aparar as margens rente ao 2º pesponto, deixei-as para formarem uma espécie de mini-folho (ou mini-babado em brasileiro):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s-4FQJI8e68/Tpro-7uFN8I/AAAAAAAAMRc/Z6ecbjWJ5o4/s1600/Fig2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300px" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s-4FQJI8e68/Tpro-7uFN8I/AAAAAAAAMRc/Z6ecbjWJ5o4/s400/Fig2.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Outra coisa que fiz diferente foi a costura indicada pelas setas vermelhas nas costas do top; decidi fazê-la normalmente pelo avesso, uma vez que sem o folho ficaria um pouco sem graça:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2cm7j1C1sFY/TprpF4qU_1I/AAAAAAAAMRo/Fl7d_40DqVI/s1600/Fig3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400px" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2cm7j1C1sFY/TprpF4qU_1I/AAAAAAAAMRo/Fl7d_40DqVI/s400/Fig3.jpg" width="265px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uQDPI1sZv2Y/TprpJ2_hgrI/AAAAAAAAMR0/j02-1NZRrU4/s1600/Fig4.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400px" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uQDPI1sZv2Y/TprpJ2_hgrI/AAAAAAAAMR0/j02-1NZRrU4/s400/Fig4.JPG" width="300px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Na gola utilizei molas de pressão de plástico, como podem ver:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-I477i0J75_0/TprpO1A0DEI/AAAAAAAAMSA/6IHvru5crhU/s1600/Fig5.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300px" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-I477i0J75_0/TprpO1A0DEI/AAAAAAAAMSA/6IHvru5crhU/s400/Fig5.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-CGxOSDWlq4c/TprpUTfrIOI/AAAAAAAAMSM/ElHNLJNqK_A/s1600/Fig6.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300px" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-CGxOSDWlq4c/TprpUTfrIOI/AAAAAAAAMSM/ElHNLJNqK_A/s400/Fig6.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Mais algumas fotos:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GBC9MqfofUE/TprpZXuHOvI/AAAAAAAAMSY/w3kZFD3ATXE/s1600/Fig7.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300px" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GBC9MqfofUE/TprpZXuHOvI/AAAAAAAAMSY/w3kZFD3ATXE/s400/Fig7.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-I-Ftbxluaq8/Tprpfj8nJ4I/AAAAAAAAMSk/v_1cPxePdfM/s1600/Fig8.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400px" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-I-Ftbxluaq8/Tprpfj8nJ4I/AAAAAAAAMSk/v_1cPxePdfM/s400/Fig8.JPG" width="300px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Conclusão:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Um modelo complicado de fazer (um verdadeiro puzzle), à excepção da saia que penso estar ao alcance de qualquer principiante. Não fica tão justo como a foto do molde deixa adivinhar, mas acho que mesmo assim é um modelo muito original e bonito! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A seguir tenho para vos mostrar um vestido da Burda de Outubro que me deixou completamente rendida! Vamos ver consigo algum tempo para escrever o artigo sem grande demora! Obrigada a todos pela visita!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English161011"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sEr1nLnVe2Q/Tproj4_0vAI/AAAAAAAAMQ4/Spqe57ZLYQU/s1600/20111016_5.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400px" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sEr1nLnVe2Q/Tproj4_0vAI/AAAAAAAAMQ4/Spqe57ZLYQU/s400/20111016_5.JPG" width="259px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;More pictures of me wearing this ensemble (click &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/10/donna-karan-top-and-skirt-diy-vogue1259.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pattern: &lt;a href="http://voguepatterns.mccall.com/v1259-products-14706.php?page_id=174"&gt;V1259&lt;/a&gt; Donna Karan Misses top and skirt&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9u4hvz75ENg/TproxGn8xzI/AAAAAAAAMRE/b-mapkf_WOU/s1600/V1259.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400px" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9u4hvz75ENg/TproxGn8xzI/AAAAAAAAMRE/b-mapkf_WOU/s400/V1259.jpg" width="379px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;This is one of those projects that you really can’t tell how it looks from the dressform picture, which ruins the skirt's effect completely.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-x9ZQxyoBJuo/Tpro2uKy5aI/AAAAAAAAMRU/LR-PyyZM6kE/s1600/Fig1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400px" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-x9ZQxyoBJuo/Tpro2uKy5aI/AAAAAAAAMRU/LR-PyyZM6kE/s400/Fig1.JPG" width="300px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Fabric used:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; It’s a anthracite polyester jersey knit (I’m not quite sure of its composition though; I can tell it’s heavier than the regular jersey and it drapes much better; it’s the same kind of knit I used on Paco’s half-circle skirt)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Construction:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; It would be impossible to document the construction process for the top, because it's visually complicated with lots of pieces and different seams (the skirt however is quite easy to make). I found two excellent reviews that provide a wealth of information about this pattern, along with some very useful tips for the assembling of the top. Melissa made an excellent job; you’ll find her review really useful if you plan on making this set:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.fehrtrade.com/gallery/508/the-vogue-1259-donna-karan-gathered-skirt-set"&gt;http://www.fehrtrade.com/gallery/508/the-vogue-1259-donna-karan-gathered-skirt-set&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I’ve also found another excellent post at Oui Patrons (in French). The author explains that she had to alter the pattern for a better fit around the waist:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://ouipatrons.com/2011/08/28/vogue-v1259-by-donna-karan/"&gt;http://ouipatrons.com/2011/08/28/vogue-v1259-by-donna-karan/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She came to realize that the top is not as figure hugging as the original model picture makes believe (this is very true, I realized the same but chose to keep the top as it came out originally). She went back unstitching some of the seams, and redrafted the front pieces for a better fit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Alterations:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; I didn’t finish the exposed seams as the instructions tell you to do; instead of trimming the excess seam allowances, I kept them to form a small frill: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s-4FQJI8e68/Tpro-7uFN8I/AAAAAAAAMRc/Z6ecbjWJ5o4/s1600/Fig2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300px" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s-4FQJI8e68/Tpro-7uFN8I/AAAAAAAAMRc/Z6ecbjWJ5o4/s400/Fig2.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;I also did the seaming differently on the back; I went for a regular seam instead of the exposed seam on the section between the red arrows:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2cm7j1C1sFY/TprpF4qU_1I/AAAAAAAAMRo/Fl7d_40DqVI/s1600/Fig3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400px" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2cm7j1C1sFY/TprpF4qU_1I/AAAAAAAAMRo/Fl7d_40DqVI/s400/Fig3.jpg" width="265px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uQDPI1sZv2Y/TprpJ2_hgrI/AAAAAAAAMR0/j02-1NZRrU4/s1600/Fig4.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400px" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uQDPI1sZv2Y/TprpJ2_hgrI/AAAAAAAAMR0/j02-1NZRrU4/s400/Fig4.JPG" width="300px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;I used plastic pressure snaps (less bulk, these are very thin) for the back neck closure, as you can see:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-I477i0J75_0/TprpO1A0DEI/AAAAAAAAMSA/6IHvru5crhU/s1600/Fig5.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300px" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-I477i0J75_0/TprpO1A0DEI/AAAAAAAAMSA/6IHvru5crhU/s400/Fig5.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-CGxOSDWlq4c/TprpUTfrIOI/AAAAAAAAMSM/ElHNLJNqK_A/s1600/Fig6.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300px" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-CGxOSDWlq4c/TprpUTfrIOI/AAAAAAAAMSM/ElHNLJNqK_A/s400/Fig6.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Here’re a couple more photos:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GBC9MqfofUE/TprpZXuHOvI/AAAAAAAAMSY/w3kZFD3ATXE/s1600/Fig7.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300px" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GBC9MqfofUE/TprpZXuHOvI/AAAAAAAAMSY/w3kZFD3ATXE/s400/Fig7.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-I-Ftbxluaq8/Tprpfj8nJ4I/AAAAAAAAMSk/v_1cPxePdfM/s1600/Fig8.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400px" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-I-Ftbxluaq8/Tprpfj8nJ4I/AAAAAAAAMSk/v_1cPxePdfM/s400/Fig8.JPG" width="300px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; I kid you not, this is a hard one (a true puzzle), except for the skirt which I believe is doable by a beginner. In my opinion this pattern is worth all the trouble if you are up for the challenge!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next I will show you a BurdaStyle dress (from the October edition) that really took my breath away! I’m really looking forward to show you this dress, yet I don’t know when I’ll find the time to post about it; the only thing I can do is promise you that I’ll do it as soon as I can.

Desculpem-me, mas a minha gestão de tempo tem sido surreal…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-AiUVGhbCmoE/TpIEpjKBT5I/AAAAAAAAMPE/n1SJo1ssKfw/s1600/20110917_1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400px" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-AiUVGhbCmoE/TpIEpjKBT5I/AAAAAAAAMPE/n1SJo1ssKfw/s400/20110917_1.JPG" width="276px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Podem ver mais fotos a usar a saia &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/09/blown-by-wind-ao-sabor-do-vento.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Descrição:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Saia tipo meio-círculo com cós aplicado e fecho invisível, cortada em viés e desenhada a partir do molde básico de saia direita, o que preserva a linha da cintura natural e não um meio-círculo. Este detalhe faz toda a diferença no cair da saia (vejam a comparação na figura seguinte – à esquerda o pano da saia cortada do molde do Paco, à direita um pano de saia cortado em meio-circulo puro, ou seja a curva da cintura também é um meio-círculo):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bOKEBxIGB-A/TpIEp9R8-PI/AAAAAAAAMPM/SaD7-qqxJa0/s1600/Panorama%2Bfalda%2B1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320px" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bOKEBxIGB-A/TpIEp9R8-PI/AAAAAAAAMPM/SaD7-qqxJa0/s400/Panorama%2Bfalda%2B1.jpg" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Notem que o pano da saia cortada com o molde do Paco inclusivamente fica menos “pingão” à frente (deforma menos com o viés) e também que as pregas do drapeado ficam mais uniformes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Tecido usado:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Jersey com cair “pesado”, de poliéster cor azul petróleo. Optei por não forrar a saia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Confecção:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; O Paco disponibilizou um &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2011/09/falda-half-circle-skirt.html"&gt;tutorial bastante detalhado&lt;/a&gt; dos passos de confecção que necessitam de cuidado especial, nomeadamente a estabilização da linha da cintura, a aplicação de forro opcional, etc. Podem clicar &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2011/09/falda-half-circle-skirt.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt; para estes detalhes e também para adquirir o molde, se o desejarem. No meu caso, cortei o tecido em viés, com cuidado para não estirar o tecido, reforcei a linha da cintura e deixe os panos da saia no manequim de um dia para o outro. No dia seguinte cosi as costuras laterais e apliquei o cós, deixando d novo a saia no manequim com alfinetes. Depois de umas horas medi a abertura do fecho e cortei umas tiras de entretela de malha, no sentido vertical (para não deformarem), da largura dos valores de costura e uns dois cm mais compridas que a medida da abertura que medi no manequim. Apliquei a ferro a entretela nos valores de costura da abertura, esticando o tecido até ao comprimento que tinha medido anteriormente. Só depois apliquei o forro invisível, ficando com a certeza que não iria repuxar o tecido da saia, uma vez que a abertura estaria estabilizada para o comprimento correcto com o cair da saia e o peso do tecido.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Detalhes:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OSvCSDqu3fM/TpIEqC2jFiI/AAAAAAAAMPU/z4D9y4lHsQg/s1600/Fig2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400px" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OSvCSDqu3fM/TpIEqC2jFiI/AAAAAAAAMPU/z4D9y4lHsQg/s400/Fig2.JPG" width="300px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-yQj0zOv3HB0/TpIEqHe9-FI/AAAAAAAAMPc/oCyJ1vRx9Eg/s1600/Fig3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300px" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-yQj0zOv3HB0/TpIEqHe9-FI/AAAAAAAAMPc/oCyJ1vRx9Eg/s400/Fig3.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NbEuPFk-LZ8/TpIFXNdfbBI/AAAAAAAAMPs/sU9luTPRLFg/s1600/Fig4.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300px" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NbEuPFk-LZ8/TpIFXNdfbBI/AAAAAAAAMPs/sU9luTPRLFg/s400/Fig4.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Conclusão:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Um molde simples mas que inclui a sofisticação e o bom corte a que o Paco nos tem habituado. O efeito é muito bonito e moderno, e com as devidas precauções é muito fácil de confeccionar. O molde está disponível também para um comprimento “midi” e em quatro tamanhos diferentes (guiem-se pela medida da cintura para escolherem o tamanho). Nota máxima para este molde!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O molde está disponível para compra &lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/81976795/new-half-ciclre-skirt-pattern"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;2011#27 – Top raglan&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-D-7gSAQ_J2M/TpIF9b2RGxI/AAAAAAAAMP0/eD9Gys50Il8/s1600/Fig5.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400px" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-D-7gSAQ_J2M/TpIF9b2RGxI/AAAAAAAAMP0/eD9Gys50Il8/s400/Fig5.JPG" width="300px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Este top é mais uma versão do &lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2010/11/projectos-rapidos-quick-projects.html"&gt;modelo 112A da Burda de Fevereiro de 2010&lt;/a&gt; (Já o tinha feiro anteriormente em malha estável azul-marinho e em malha estável preta com mangas em napa). É um top simples e confortável, que complementa a saia num look monocromático.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Abraço e fiquem bem!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English091011"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-T0zDIBJqpn0/TpIFJqcpRxI/AAAAAAAAMPk/hUBOYncgUVI/s1600/Fig1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400px" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-T0zDIBJqpn0/TpIFJqcpRxI/AAAAAAAAMPk/hUBOYncgUVI/s400/Fig1.JPG" width="300px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;At last… I know I’m late, but here’s Paco’s maxi-skirt review as promised! I apologize but my time schedule has been really surreal lately…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-AiUVGhbCmoE/TpIEpjKBT5I/AAAAAAAAMPE/n1SJo1ssKfw/s1600/20110917_1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400px" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-AiUVGhbCmoE/TpIEpjKBT5I/AAAAAAAAMPE/n1SJo1ssKfw/s400/20110917_1.JPG" width="276px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;You can see more pictures of me wearing the skirt &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/09/blown-by-wind-ao-sabor-do-vento.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Description:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Half-circle skirt with set-in waistband and invisible side zipper, cut on the bias; the pattern is drawn from the skirt basic block pattern, thus maintaining its waist curve, instead of the half-circle curve usually featured in half-circle skirts. This detail makes all the difference on the way the skirt hangs and also on the evenness of its drape (just check the difference on the picture bellow, where a skirt resulting from Paco’s pattern is shown on the left, compared with a skirt cut as a pure half circle, including the waist curve): &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bOKEBxIGB-A/TpIEp9R8-PI/AAAAAAAAMPM/SaD7-qqxJa0/s1600/Panorama%2Bfalda%2B1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320px" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bOKEBxIGB-A/TpIEp9R8-PI/AAAAAAAAMPM/SaD7-qqxJa0/s400/Panorama%2Bfalda%2B1.jpg" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Also note that Paco’s skirt hem is less uneven; the “growing” effect due to the bias cut is better distributed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Fabric used:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Heavy drape knit (polyester), the color is dark teal. I opted for not including a lining on my version because this knit is not see-through and the skirt is heavy as it is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Construction:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Paco published an &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2011/09/falda-half-circle-skirt.html"&gt;excellent tutorial highlighting the trickier construction aspects for this skirt&lt;/a&gt;, so I have little to add. You can click &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2011/09/falda-half-circle-skirt.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; for Paco’s article, where you’ll also find a link to purchase this pattern. It’s very important to stabilize the waist line to guarantee an even drape and it’s also advisable to let the skirt hang before stitching the zipper in place. I left the skirt hang overnight, then re-measured the zipper opening on the dressform; I cut two 5/8” wide strips of thin interfacing to stabilize the opening allowances (the length of the strips should be the re-measure of the side opening plus an inch), being careful to stretch the opening into the re-measured size before interfacing. Then I sewed in the invisible zipper as usual.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Details:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OSvCSDqu3fM/TpIEqC2jFiI/AAAAAAAAMPU/z4D9y4lHsQg/s1600/Fig2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400px" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OSvCSDqu3fM/TpIEqC2jFiI/AAAAAAAAMPU/z4D9y4lHsQg/s400/Fig2.JPG" width="300px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-yQj0zOv3HB0/TpIEqHe9-FI/AAAAAAAAMPc/oCyJ1vRx9Eg/s1600/Fig3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300px" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-yQj0zOv3HB0/TpIEqHe9-FI/AAAAAAAAMPc/oCyJ1vRx9Eg/s400/Fig3.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NbEuPFk-LZ8/TpIFXNdfbBI/AAAAAAAAMPs/sU9luTPRLFg/s1600/Fig4.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300px" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NbEuPFk-LZ8/TpIFXNdfbBI/AAAAAAAAMPs/sU9luTPRLFg/s400/Fig4.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; As usual with Paco’s patterns, its apparent simplicity hides some sophistication and a great cut. The overall effect is beautiful and modern, and providing you take some simple precautions, it’s fairly easy to execute. The pattern also comes in midi-length but I chose to make the longer version. It’s also available in four different sizes (just use your waist measure to pick the correct size). I rate this pattern with five out of five stars!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The pattern is available for purchasing &lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/81976795/new-half-ciclre-skirt-pattern"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;2011#27 – Another raglan top&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-D-7gSAQ_J2M/TpIF9b2RGxI/AAAAAAAAMP0/eD9Gys50Il8/s1600/Fig5.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400px" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-D-7gSAQ_J2M/TpIF9b2RGxI/AAAAAAAAMP0/eD9Gys50Il8/s400/Fig5.JPG" width="300px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;This top is just another version of &lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2010/11/projectos-rapidos-quick-projects.html"&gt;BurdaStyle 02/2010, model 112A&lt;/a&gt; (previously made in navy blue double knit and black double knit with pleather sleeves). It’s easy and comfortable, and complements the skirt wonderfully for a monochromatic look.&amp;nbsp;Notice the ripple on the hem, it wasn't pressed yet at the time I took the picture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hugs and thank you all for visiting!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Couture et Tricot is licensed with a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs license&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1707374644461378032-9149740956986783942?l=tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/feeds/9149740956986783942/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1707374644461378032&amp;postID=9149740956986783942&amp;isPopup=true' title='11 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1707374644461378032/posts/default/9149740956986783942'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1707374644461378032/posts/default/9149740956986783942'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/10/201126-paco-peraltas-half-circle-skirt.html' title='2011#26 – &lt;em&gt;Paco Peralta’s half circle skirt&lt;/em&gt; – A saia meio-círculo (molde de Paco Peralta)'/><author><name>Tany</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01073735708031525696</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://www.friendsofpr.com/tany/Blue_Goth_Girl.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-T0zDIBJqpn0/TpIFJqcpRxI/AAAAAAAAMPk/hUBOYncgUVI/s72-c/Fig1.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>11</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1707374644461378032.post-2206137057620727399</id><published>2011-08-16T16:39:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2011-08-16T16:39:01.924+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='V2752 Guy Laroche'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='costura 2011 - 2011 Sewing Projects'/><title type='text'>2011#25 – Salmon pink jacket (V2752) – Jaqueta salmão</title><content type='html'>&lt;b&gt;Português&lt;/b&gt;&lt;input value="ButtonPortuguese" onclick="portugueseexpandcollapse('Portuguese160811')" type="checkbox" checked=true&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffff33;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;em&gt;English (uncheck the other box and check this one)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;input value="ButtonEnglish" onclick="englishexpandcollapse('English160811')" type="checkbox"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postportugueseshow" id="Portuguese160811"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-i-S9eqssSuw/TkqGcNUz-qI/AAAAAAAAMLg/5Z1hA8u2yUM/s1600/Fig1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="640" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-i-S9eqssSuw/TkqGcNUz-qI/AAAAAAAAMLg/5Z1hA8u2yUM/s640/Fig1.JPG" width="480" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Molde usado:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Vogue 2752 (ver detalhes no &lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/08/201124-salmon-pink-flared-pants-v2752.html"&gt;artigo anterior&lt;/a&gt;, onde mostrei o molde e as calças do conjunto)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Fotos&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; minhas a usar a jaqueta (clicar &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/08/salmon-pink-jacket-diy-jaqueta-salmao.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Descrição:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Jaqueta semi-justa, completamente entretelada, leva chumaços, tem linhas princesa, gola em pé, mangas largas a ¾ e molas de pressão.

Já agora, a entretela que usei foi termo-colante de malha fininha, uma entretela muito flexível e ligeira. A intenção não era que a jaqueta ficasse muito estruturada. Ah, e também acrescentei uma corrente de pendurar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0-2h1DRyiYg/TkqGx_1pE_I/AAAAAAAAML4/p3HsMOOFBRg/s1600/Fig4.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0-2h1DRyiYg/TkqGx_1pE_I/AAAAAAAAML4/p3HsMOOFBRg/s400/Fig4.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-eR96u_LeMBA/TkqG3JheDcI/AAAAAAAAMMA/Um94Z6n9PIs/s1600/Fig5.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-eR96u_LeMBA/TkqG3JheDcI/AAAAAAAAMMA/Um94Z6n9PIs/s400/Fig5.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Z7M0Ln03Ui0/TkqG6KlJ0gI/AAAAAAAAMMI/1PBW8bK4NyI/s1600/Fig6.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Z7M0Ln03Ui0/TkqG6KlJ0gI/AAAAAAAAMMI/1PBW8bK4NyI/s400/Fig6.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-h4mbmjadPAs/TkqHA576U_I/AAAAAAAAMMQ/zYXltSsXM0I/s1600/Fig7.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-h4mbmjadPAs/TkqHA576U_I/AAAAAAAAMMQ/zYXltSsXM0I/s400/Fig7.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Conclusão:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Um projecto trabalhoso e com muitas peças para unir, mas na minha opinião valeu bem a pena o trabalho (em consequência das muitas horas seguidas a costurar ganhei uma boa dor de costas). Em conjunto com as &lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/08/201124-salmon-pink-flared-pants-v2752.html"&gt;calças&lt;/a&gt;, forma um fato bem chique, mas estas peças podem usar-se também separadamente, em conjuntos menos formais. Gostei mais de ver a jaqueta com cinto, mas pode também ser usada simples, ou até com um lenço de voile em tom salmão escuro atado atrás (aqui a fazer lembrar a Angelina Jolie no filme “O Turista”). Fotos minhas a usar a jaqueta já estão no Tany et la Mode (clicar &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/08/salmon-pink-jacket-diy-jaqueta-salmao.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;).

In my opinion this is a beautiful and interesting pattern.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MahC0oNGFjY/TkqGn2ztGXI/AAAAAAAAMLo/X6iIctAP4yE/s1600/Fig2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MahC0oNGFjY/TkqGn2ztGXI/AAAAAAAAMLo/X6iIctAP4yE/s400/Fig2.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-2sPjcjCQKEg/TkqGs4DbgmI/AAAAAAAAMLw/b0mN-4uL2sA/s1600/Fig3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-2sPjcjCQKEg/TkqGs4DbgmI/AAAAAAAAMLw/b0mN-4uL2sA/s400/Fig3.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Alterations:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; none to the pattern but I diverged from the instructions on two points: I also interfaced the front facing (I don’t know why, but in the instructions this is the only piece which is not interfaced; it didn’t make sense to me, so I interfaced it as well). I also changed the placement of the pressure snaps and added another one just above the two that are placed at waist level. By the way, I used thin knit fusible interfacing, the same I usually use for blouses and silk fabrics. The goal was providing some structure and stability to the fabric without stiffening the jacket. Oh, and I also added a hanging chain loop to the back collar facing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0-2h1DRyiYg/TkqGx_1pE_I/AAAAAAAAML4/p3HsMOOFBRg/s1600/Fig4.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0-2h1DRyiYg/TkqGx_1pE_I/AAAAAAAAML4/p3HsMOOFBRg/s400/Fig4.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-eR96u_LeMBA/TkqG3JheDcI/AAAAAAAAMMA/Um94Z6n9PIs/s1600/Fig5.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-eR96u_LeMBA/TkqG3JheDcI/AAAAAAAAMMA/Um94Z6n9PIs/s400/Fig5.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Z7M0Ln03Ui0/TkqG6KlJ0gI/AAAAAAAAMMI/1PBW8bK4NyI/s1600/Fig6.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Z7M0Ln03Ui0/TkqG6KlJ0gI/AAAAAAAAMMI/1PBW8bK4NyI/s400/Fig6.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-h4mbmjadPAs/TkqHA576U_I/AAAAAAAAMMQ/zYXltSsXM0I/s1600/Fig7.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-h4mbmjadPAs/TkqHA576U_I/AAAAAAAAMMQ/zYXltSsXM0I/s400/Fig7.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; It was a work intensive project but the end result was worth it (I also&amp;nbsp;ended up having&amp;nbsp;some back pain in consequence of spending too many hours in a row just sewing… it was a busy weekend after all, *smile*). Wearing the complete suit to the office is perhaps too much, but both jacket and &lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/08/201124-salmon-pink-flared-pants-v2752.html"&gt;pants&lt;/a&gt; will get plenty of wear as separates! I really love the jacket with a belt, but it also works single. I could also wear it with a dark salmon voile scarf as belt, tied on the back (channeling Angelina Jolie in The Tourist, she wears the most amazing wardrobe in that movie, don’t you think?). Pictures of me wearing the jacket are already up (click &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/08/salmon-pink-jacket-diy-jaqueta-salmao.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;).

Resolvi então substituir as vistas por um cós estreito, com duas pontas de atar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-oCL4Jb1u5qk/TkZYMOGg3eI/AAAAAAAAMKE/GI0EAkeVT9M/s1600/Fig5.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400px" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-oCL4Jb1u5qk/TkZYMOGg3eI/AAAAAAAAMKE/GI0EAkeVT9M/s400/Fig5.JPG" width="277px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--JTCyiYvfho/TkZYQaZm7KI/AAAAAAAAMKM/YwqDiZ0DuUw/s1600/Fig6.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300px" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--JTCyiYvfho/TkZYQaZm7KI/AAAAAAAAMKM/YwqDiZ0DuUw/s400/Fig6.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;A &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;confecção&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; decorreu sem problemas apenas alterando o processo de confecção do cós. Os acabamentos das margens foram feitos com corta-e-cose (menos na costura do gancho, onde prefiro usar o ponto de rematar orlas da máquina de coser, porque a orla é redonda e é mais difícil de obter precisão nas curvas com a corta-e-cose). Podem ver as bainhas cosidas à mão na foto seguinte:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gK6BiVQVc-U/TkZYT-6sHQI/AAAAAAAAMKU/vMClmxKRBFk/s1600/Fig7.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300px" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gK6BiVQVc-U/TkZYT-6sHQI/AAAAAAAAMKU/vMClmxKRBFk/s400/Fig7.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Conclusão:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Muto satisfeita com o resultado e acho que a modificação no cós lhe deu um toque mais moderno! A seguir vou tentar fazer a jaqueta, no mesmo tecido, para ficar com o fato completo! Quando puder publico fotos no meu blogue de guarda-roupa!)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English130811"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-NRAMj9MmSmk/TkZXspoATpI/AAAAAAAAMJU/sMgRy_FIxRo/s1600/Fig1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="640px" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-NRAMj9MmSmk/TkZXspoATpI/AAAAAAAAMJU/sMgRy_FIxRo/s640/Fig1.JPG" width="443px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Pattern:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Vogue 2752, Guy Laroche Paris Original (Out of Print, it was released in 2003):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Awzo6dusDtQ/TkZXx6aiujI/AAAAAAAAMJc/Z7jcm0zRIHY/s1600/V2752.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="295px" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Awzo6dusDtQ/TkZXx6aiujI/AAAAAAAAMJc/Z7jcm0zRIHY/s400/V2752.jpg" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Y1LkPiGf9P8/TkZX2oNPbfI/AAAAAAAAMJk/dvElXb1BY6U/s1600/V2752_ld.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="346px" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Y1LkPiGf9P8/TkZX2oNPbfI/AAAAAAAAMJk/dvElXb1BY6U/s400/V2752_ld.gif" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Pants description:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Floor length flared pants have contour waist (the original has) and invisible side-zipper closure.

So I made a narrow separate waistband instead, ending in two ties (I left the end of the ties unfinished so I could turn them more easily and kind of liked it that way).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-oCL4Jb1u5qk/TkZYMOGg3eI/AAAAAAAAMKE/GI0EAkeVT9M/s1600/Fig5.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400px" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-oCL4Jb1u5qk/TkZYMOGg3eI/AAAAAAAAMKE/GI0EAkeVT9M/s400/Fig5.JPG" width="277px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--JTCyiYvfho/TkZYQaZm7KI/AAAAAAAAMKM/YwqDiZ0DuUw/s1600/Fig6.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300px" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--JTCyiYvfho/TkZYQaZm7KI/AAAAAAAAMKM/YwqDiZ0DuUw/s400/Fig6.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;construction&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; went well, just altering the waist finishing. The SAs were all serged except for the crotch; there I used the special purpose stitch from my sewing machine, because it’s easier to control around curved edges. The hems were handstitched (a far more perfect finishing than using the hemming stitch from the sewing machine, which I used before on quick/easy projects):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gK6BiVQVc-U/TkZYT-6sHQI/AAAAAAAAMKU/vMClmxKRBFk/s1600/Fig7.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300px" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gK6BiVQVc-U/TkZYT-6sHQI/AAAAAAAAMKU/vMClmxKRBFk/s400/Fig7.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Couldn’t be happier with the end result and I think my alterations added a modern touch to the original design. Next I will attempt making the jacket, using the same fabric.&lt;br /&gt;When I can I will publish pictures on my wardrobe blog.

Um dos detalhes é um pequeno botão de segurança no fecho (não é absolutamente necessário neste caso, mas valoriza o acabamento):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jDeod-I-2cs/TkAgXGwDNdI/AAAAAAAAMHk/iKB8SEIAkT0/s1600/Fig2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" naa="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jDeod-I-2cs/TkAgXGwDNdI/AAAAAAAAMHk/iKB8SEIAkT0/s400/Fig2.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Como os tecidos brancos são sempre sujeitos a transparência, optei por um forro do tom da pele (“nude”), a melhor opção para reduzir a transparência de tecidos brancos. Para não se notar tanto no direito do vestido o contraste da transição do tecido das vistas (que é branco) para o forro (tom de pele), forrei o avesso das vistas (a parte que fica&amp;nbsp;virada contra&amp;nbsp;o tecido branco do vestido) com o forro também. As fotos seguintes mostram as vistas pelo avesso, onde podem também observar o escalado/golpeado das costuras por dentro nas orlas das cavas e decote do vestido e a junção do forro às vistas:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7OC-wjZ3U5Q/TkAgZXpY37I/AAAAAAAAMHo/Ll8dOW_ZyN0/s1600/Fig3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" naa="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7OC-wjZ3U5Q/TkAgZXpY37I/AAAAAAAAMHo/Ll8dOW_ZyN0/s400/Fig3.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-KiKsH2y3o9I/TkAgb-RIp5I/AAAAAAAAMHs/5gCRRIEY0wY/s1600/Fig4.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" naa="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-KiKsH2y3o9I/TkAgb-RIp5I/AAAAAAAAMHs/5gCRRIEY0wY/s400/Fig4.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Algumas de vocês&amp;nbsp;realçaram a&amp;nbsp;forma como acabei os cantos da abertura atrás; podem ver um tutorial em Inglês da revista Threads (clicar &lt;a href="http://www.threadsmagazine.com/item/7438/create-perfectly-mitered-corners"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;) que explica a base do processo. Não é difícil, só dá um pouquinho mais de trabalho, mas o efeito final vale bem a pena se bem executado.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-g2DZUyrYASs/TkAgfhupheI/AAAAAAAAMHw/foURk-bCOhc/s1600/Fig5.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" naa="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-g2DZUyrYASs/TkAgfhupheI/AAAAAAAAMHw/foURk-bCOhc/s400/Fig5.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Mais fotos do vestido:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-W36etcRG6nw/TkAgjLcaQzI/AAAAAAAAMH0/HqMBunS4qV0/s1600/Fig6.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" naa="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-W36etcRG6nw/TkAgjLcaQzI/AAAAAAAAMH0/HqMBunS4qV0/s400/Fig6.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-NhQvkD57dM8/TkAglwstRYI/AAAAAAAAMH4/z6r7hDDW53Q/s1600/Fig7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" naa="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-NhQvkD57dM8/TkAglwstRYI/AAAAAAAAMH4/z6r7hDDW53Q/s400/Fig7.jpg" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Apenas uma nota final para quem faz um vestido destes; tomem cuidado para as costuras coincidirem nas junções; o alinhavar bem as marcações tem um papel fundamental para tudo ficar certo no final (foto do fecho invisível atrás, onde há a junção das costuras das pinças na vertical e da costura horizontal do cós):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-rCOwqcSK5OE/TkAhNvu5lSI/AAAAAAAAMIA/frNQtd5BTx0/s1600/P1010234.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-rCOwqcSK5OE/TkAhNvu5lSI/AAAAAAAAMIA/frNQtd5BTx0/s400/P1010234.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Conclusão:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Gosto tanto deste modelo simples que tenho a certeza que ainda voltarei a ele! Os looks “branco total” estão muito em voga agora no verão, e um vestido minimalista como este pode ser usado “a solo” com acessórios bonitos (aqui cuidado para não ficarmos a parecer a “noiva”, lol), com um blazer ou jaqueta a contrastar ou até com uma camisa solta ou cingida com um nó ou cinto (para um visual mais desportivo), etc. Com certeza irão ver fotos minhas a usá-lo em breve no meu blogue de guarda-roupa!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Queria também agradecer os comentários no meu &lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/08/publications-featuring-couture-et.html"&gt;artigo anterior&lt;/a&gt;! Sabe bem quando o nosso trabalho é reconhecido, e ainda mais quando o é internacionalmente! Um abraço a todos(as)!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English080811"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-glohiZ9jmuw/TkAgUds_fZI/AAAAAAAAMHg/Z1RyfQBdTlM/s1600/Fig1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" naa="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-glohiZ9jmuw/TkAgUds_fZI/AAAAAAAAMHg/Z1RyfQBdTlM/s400/Fig1.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;This dress was the 2nd dress I made with the Patrones nº284mod26 pattern (click &lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/07/201122-snake-print-dress-vestido.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; for the first dress – the snake print dress - and more details about the pattern).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Fabric used:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; white crepe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This dress is exactly the same as the previous snake print dress, except for some minor details on the inside finishing. For this dress I added a security button on top of the invisible zipper (not absolutely necessary in this case, but it’s a fine detail that adds to the final result):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jDeod-I-2cs/TkAgXGwDNdI/AAAAAAAAMHk/iKB8SEIAkT0/s1600/Fig2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" naa="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jDeod-I-2cs/TkAgXGwDNdI/AAAAAAAAMHk/iKB8SEIAkT0/s400/Fig2.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;White fabrics are always subject to some degree of transparency, so I opted for the best color lining in this case, which is nude. Even with the nude lining, the facings outline would be very noticeable on the right side, because the facings are interfaced in white. To minimize this effect I also lined the wrong side of the facings with the nude lining. Next pictures show the wrong side of the facings, the scaling/notching/clipping of the seam allowances on rounded edges, all on the wrong side of the dress, all very important to a better end result on the right side of the dress:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7OC-wjZ3U5Q/TkAgZXpY37I/AAAAAAAAMHo/Ll8dOW_ZyN0/s1600/Fig3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" naa="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7OC-wjZ3U5Q/TkAgZXpY37I/AAAAAAAAMHo/Ll8dOW_ZyN0/s400/Fig3.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-KiKsH2y3o9I/TkAgb-RIp5I/AAAAAAAAMHs/5gCRRIEY0wY/s1600/Fig4.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" naa="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-KiKsH2y3o9I/TkAgb-RIp5I/AAAAAAAAMHs/5gCRRIEY0wY/s400/Fig4.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Some of you mentioned the mitered corners on the back slit; there’s a threads online tutorial (click &lt;a href="http://www.threadsmagazine.com/item/7438/create-perfectly-mitered-corners"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;) that outlines the basics of the process. It’s not difficult (just needs some precise work and some more time), and adds a lot to the final result.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-g2DZUyrYASs/TkAgfhupheI/AAAAAAAAMHw/foURk-bCOhc/s1600/Fig5.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" naa="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-g2DZUyrYASs/TkAgfhupheI/AAAAAAAAMHw/foURk-bCOhc/s400/Fig5.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;More pictures of the dress:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-W36etcRG6nw/TkAgjLcaQzI/AAAAAAAAMH0/HqMBunS4qV0/s1600/Fig6.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" naa="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-W36etcRG6nw/TkAgjLcaQzI/AAAAAAAAMH0/HqMBunS4qV0/s400/Fig6.JPG" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-NhQvkD57dM8/TkAglwstRYI/AAAAAAAAMH4/z6r7hDDW53Q/s1600/Fig7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" naa="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-NhQvkD57dM8/TkAglwstRYI/AAAAAAAAMH4/z6r7hDDW53Q/s400/Fig7.jpg" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Finally, I just want to highlight the importance of precise sewing and thread tracing to achieve better results when matching all seams at junctions (the following picture shows how vertical darts are matching, and the horizontal waist seam is also matched for right and left side of the back of the dress, where there’s also the invisible zipper on the center back):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-rCOwqcSK5OE/TkAhNvu5lSI/AAAAAAAAMIA/frNQtd5BTx0/s1600/P1010234.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-rCOwqcSK5OE/TkAhNvu5lSI/AAAAAAAAMIA/frNQtd5BTx0/s400/P1010234.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; My second take on this pattern and possibly not the last. I love this simple and perfectly fitted design! The total white looks are quite trendy this summer (aren’t they all summers??) and a minimalistic white dress can be worn “solo” with beautiful accessories (some restrains apply to not ending up looking like a bride or a nurse, lol!), paired with a contrasting blazer or even with a shirt (loose, tied or belted for a sportive look), etc. I’m quite sure this dress will soon make a few outfit posts at my wardrobe blog (I’ll update with the link as soon as I publish it)! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a final note I want to thank all the nice comments on my&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/08/publications-featuring-couture-et.html"&gt;previous post&lt;/a&gt;! It feels great when our work is appreciated and even more when it’s appreciated internationally!

O artigo foi escrito pela Samina Mirza, membro administrativo do &lt;a href="http://www.asg.org/"&gt;American Sewing Guild&lt;/a&gt;, a quem devo agradecer também per me ter enviado um exemplar da revista!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xd_5u5XhrzM/Tj7btB47mKI/AAAAAAAAMHQ/n47sokt7Tao/s1600/Fig2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="556px" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xd_5u5XhrzM/Tj7btB47mKI/AAAAAAAAMHQ/n47sokt7Tao/s640/Fig2.JPG" width="640px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English070811"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Couture et Tricot is getting some press, dear friends and readers!

The article entitled “The New Sewing Enablers” was written by Samina Mirza, a staff member at the &lt;a href="http://www.asg.org/"&gt;American Sewing Guild&lt;/a&gt;’s National Headquarters, who was so kind to send me a printed copy of the magazine!

Pode ser utilizado como modelo básico de prova e a partir dele, por manipulação do molde, pode-se construir uma variedade grande de moldes. Descobri que quase sem modificações este modelo me assenta muito bem, por isso tenciono aproveitar o molde pelo menos para fazer outro vestido em napa, outro “must” na minha lista de projectos futuros.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Tecido usado:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; sarja de algodão com elasticidade com padrão cobra impresso. Comprei o tecido na Feira dos Tecidos em Aveiro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Confecção:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Já expliquei várias vezes como fazer um vestido deste género (consultem o índice dos passo-a-passo por exemplos), desta vez vou apenas mostrar fotos do acabamento interior, uma vez que me têm pedido para o fazer. O vestido pode-se construir todo como se não fosse forrado e no final apenas coser o forro (depois de completamente cosido) às beiras das vistas. O forro é depois cosido à mão à fita do fecho invisível e à racha atrás. Eis algumas fotos do interior do vestido já com as vistas, antes de coser o forro às vistas:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-WEYzFHFbHw0/Ti6ryAjS6_I/AAAAAAAAMDU/2SsT_dYJyNw/s1600/05Facings.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633629059516918770" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-WEYzFHFbHw0/Ti6ryAjS6_I/AAAAAAAAMDU/2SsT_dYJyNw/s400/05Facings.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Detalhe das beiras do vestido do lado das vistas, onde se pode ver o pesponto que se faz depois de assentar os valores de costura (previamente escalados e golpeados nas curvas) para as vistas; reparem como ajuda a costura a “enrolar” para o lado da vista, providenciando um acabamento perfeito do lado de fora do vestido:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0E3F8e-08bo/Ti6rt5l4UjI/AAAAAAAAMDM/YbUpaR3F094/s1600/06Understitching.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628988929233458" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0E3F8e-08bo/Ti6rt5l4UjI/AAAAAAAAMDM/YbUpaR3F094/s400/06Understitching.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As vistas ainda não estão cosidas às fitas do fecho; primeiro cose-se o forro às vistas e depois faz-se este acabamento à mão, tanto nas vistas como no forro. Há outras formas de o fazer, mas desta vez fiz assim.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-N4Yz9qjLo7Q/Ti6rpvKS_ZI/AAAAAAAAMDE/kJ_m7vrfaW8/s1600/07ZipperFacings.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628917409709458" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-N4Yz9qjLo7Q/Ti6rpvKS_ZI/AAAAAAAAMDE/kJ_m7vrfaW8/s400/07ZipperFacings.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-FgmlOvuLURM/Ti6rlqC3XVI/AAAAAAAAMC8/y_E56kMu4Fo/s1600/08Invisible.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628847316884818" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-FgmlOvuLURM/Ti6rlqC3XVI/AAAAAAAAMC8/y_E56kMu4Fo/s400/08Invisible.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Costuras verticais e da cintura:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EWVUEpt5nBU/Ti6rg2C34rI/AAAAAAAAMC0/zEsggQQCCj0/s1600/09Seams.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628764638798514" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EWVUEpt5nBU/Ti6rg2C34rI/AAAAAAAAMC0/zEsggQQCCj0/s400/09Seams.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O acabamento da abertura atrás:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-icbHaGX7EU4/Ti6rcKleh6I/AAAAAAAAMCs/4j8P2uXAVh0/s1600/10BackSlit.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628684253300642" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-icbHaGX7EU4/Ti6rcKleh6I/AAAAAAAAMCs/4j8P2uXAVh0/s400/10BackSlit.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Depois de colocar o forro, o interior fica assim:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RHdfLz61OjA/Ti6rXfTj8lI/AAAAAAAAMCk/EvDU4RRaITY/s1600/11Lining.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628603915956818" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RHdfLz61OjA/Ti6rXfTj8lI/AAAAAAAAMCk/EvDU4RRaITY/s400/11Lining.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-e0rqk2vRSiQ/Ti6rSval3-I/AAAAAAAAMCc/5uMblQT3f8I/s1600/12LiningFront.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628522341064674" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-e0rqk2vRSiQ/Ti6rSval3-I/AAAAAAAAMCc/5uMblQT3f8I/s400/12LiningFront.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zUJhktQgkXQ/Ti6rO_YgAfI/AAAAAAAAMCU/g8-tfy3tAkk/s1600/13LiningBack.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628457907782130" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zUJhktQgkXQ/Ti6rO_YgAfI/AAAAAAAAMCU/g8-tfy3tAkk/s400/13LiningBack.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YeREMgJ5_wQ/Ti6q6HL90JI/AAAAAAAAMCE/ZyryzVSDv0U/s1600/14LiningSlit.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628099225440402" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YeREMgJ5_wQ/Ti6q6HL90JI/AAAAAAAAMCE/ZyryzVSDv0U/s400/14LiningSlit.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mais alguns detalhes do exterior depois de pronto:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-h0Xw3Yw-BoE/Ti6q0WV2_TI/AAAAAAAAMB8/JDcGX0WkYZg/s1600/15FrontDetail.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628000214252850" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-h0Xw3Yw-BoE/Ti6q0WV2_TI/AAAAAAAAMB8/JDcGX0WkYZg/s400/15FrontDetail.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0Dt6fP1POls/Ti6qv_6ZWcI/AAAAAAAAMB0/PJ1wi8BhggQ/s1600/16BackDetail.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633627925474007490" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0Dt6fP1POls/Ti6qv_6ZWcI/AAAAAAAAMB0/PJ1wi8BhggQ/s400/16BackDetail.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Conclusão:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Excelente na minha opinião, este molde vai com certeza render-me mais alguns vestidos!

The dress can also be worn in summer, if the weather is mild. &lt;strong&gt;You can see pictures of me wearing the dress at my wardrobe blog (click &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/07/diy-snake-print-dress-vestido-estampado.html"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;here&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;).&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Yj_Od-v-i60/Ti6sSuH4tsI/AAAAAAAAMDs/vLUt6aN2Zjk/s1600/02Side%2526Back.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 369px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633629621505799874" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Yj_Od-v-i60/Ti6sSuH4tsI/AAAAAAAAMDs/vLUt6aN2Zjk/s400/02Side%2526Back.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Pattern used:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Patrones magazine nº284, model 26 (cut size 44, slightly adjusting the waist on the back):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--U7tZ3ZnX8U/Ti6sN800UXI/AAAAAAAAMDk/mBJoPpPRHc8/s1600/03Original.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633629539553005938" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--U7tZ3ZnX8U/Ti6sN800UXI/AAAAAAAAMDk/mBJoPpPRHc8/s400/03Original.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Description:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Close fitting sleeveless dress is cut on the waist and has slanted waist darts. Has an invisible zipper on the center back and a back slit. It’s fully lined and has armhole/neckline all-in-one facings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kaVQUI7tkYk/Ti6sJbvvxfI/AAAAAAAAMDc/KKEUiIAIOck/s1600/04Instructions.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633629461953889778" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kaVQUI7tkYk/Ti6sJbvvxfI/AAAAAAAAMDc/KKEUiIAIOck/s400/04Instructions.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This pattern caught my eye mainly because the slated darts on the waist. It can also be used as a fitting shell, and thus it’s possible to manipulate this pattern to achieve a multitude of different designs. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that it fitted perfectly on me almost without any alteration, so I intend to keep it as a “true and trued” (TNT) pattern and as a base pattern for other styles. I intend to make this dress again at least in black pleather and if I have the time, a white crepe version would be very nice too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Fabric used:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Snake print stretch cotton twill. I bought the fabric at a local fabric store.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Construction:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; I’ve addressed this type of dress before (find it in the tutorial index), so today I will focus more on the finishing details inside, since I’ve received several requests asking to show more details of the interior of the dress. The dress can be constructed together with the facings and the lining attached by machine as a final step (just because the facings are neckline and armhole all-in-one). Basically the dress is built as if it would be unlined except for the facing finishing next to the zipper tape. The finished lining is then machine stitched all around the facings and then the center back opening is handstitched to the zipper tape. The lining is also handstitched to the back vent (you’ll have to leave a small fold above the vent for wearing ease). Here are a few photos of the wrong side of the dress before attaching the lining:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-WEYzFHFbHw0/Ti6ryAjS6_I/AAAAAAAAMDU/2SsT_dYJyNw/s1600/05Facings.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633629059516918770" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-WEYzFHFbHw0/Ti6ryAjS6_I/AAAAAAAAMDU/2SsT_dYJyNw/s400/05Facings.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This photo shows the understitching on the facing side. Notice how it helps favoring the right side of the dress for a perfect finishing:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0E3F8e-08bo/Ti6rt5l4UjI/AAAAAAAAMDM/YbUpaR3F094/s1600/06Understitching.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628988929233458" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0E3F8e-08bo/Ti6rt5l4UjI/AAAAAAAAMDM/YbUpaR3F094/s400/06Understitching.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The facings are not stitched to the zipper tape just yet; first the lining will be stitched to the facings and then the CB seams are handstitched to the zipper tape. There are other more elegant ways to do this (some were mentioned in this blog already), but this time I decided to go this way instead and finishing it by hand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-N4Yz9qjLo7Q/Ti6rpvKS_ZI/AAAAAAAAMDE/kJ_m7vrfaW8/s1600/07ZipperFacings.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628917409709458" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-N4Yz9qjLo7Q/Ti6rpvKS_ZI/AAAAAAAAMDE/kJ_m7vrfaW8/s400/07ZipperFacings.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-FgmlOvuLURM/Ti6rlqC3XVI/AAAAAAAAMC8/y_E56kMu4Fo/s1600/08Invisible.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628847316884818" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-FgmlOvuLURM/Ti6rlqC3XVI/AAAAAAAAMC8/y_E56kMu4Fo/s400/08Invisible.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are the vertical/horizontal waist seams on the wrong side:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EWVUEpt5nBU/Ti6rg2C34rI/AAAAAAAAMC0/zEsggQQCCj0/s1600/09Seams.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628764638798514" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EWVUEpt5nBU/Ti6rg2C34rI/AAAAAAAAMC0/zEsggQQCCj0/s400/09Seams.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The finishing on the back vent:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-icbHaGX7EU4/Ti6rcKleh6I/AAAAAAAAMCs/4j8P2uXAVh0/s1600/10BackSlit.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628684253300642" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-icbHaGX7EU4/Ti6rcKleh6I/AAAAAAAAMCs/4j8P2uXAVh0/s400/10BackSlit.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is how it looks after the lining is all set:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RHdfLz61OjA/Ti6rXfTj8lI/AAAAAAAAMCk/EvDU4RRaITY/s1600/11Lining.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628603915956818" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RHdfLz61OjA/Ti6rXfTj8lI/AAAAAAAAMCk/EvDU4RRaITY/s400/11Lining.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-e0rqk2vRSiQ/Ti6rSval3-I/AAAAAAAAMCc/5uMblQT3f8I/s1600/12LiningFront.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628522341064674" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-e0rqk2vRSiQ/Ti6rSval3-I/AAAAAAAAMCc/5uMblQT3f8I/s400/12LiningFront.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zUJhktQgkXQ/Ti6rO_YgAfI/AAAAAAAAMCU/g8-tfy3tAkk/s1600/13LiningBack.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628457907782130" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zUJhktQgkXQ/Ti6rO_YgAfI/AAAAAAAAMCU/g8-tfy3tAkk/s400/13LiningBack.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YeREMgJ5_wQ/Ti6q6HL90JI/AAAAAAAAMCE/ZyryzVSDv0U/s1600/14LiningSlit.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628099225440402" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YeREMgJ5_wQ/Ti6q6HL90JI/AAAAAAAAMCE/ZyryzVSDv0U/s400/14LiningSlit.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A couple more details of the right side of the dress:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-h0Xw3Yw-BoE/Ti6q0WV2_TI/AAAAAAAAMB8/JDcGX0WkYZg/s1600/15FrontDetail.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633628000214252850" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-h0Xw3Yw-BoE/Ti6q0WV2_TI/AAAAAAAAMB8/JDcGX0WkYZg/s400/15FrontDetail.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0Dt6fP1POls/Ti6qv_6ZWcI/AAAAAAAAMB0/PJ1wi8BhggQ/s1600/16BackDetail.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633627925474007490" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0Dt6fP1POls/Ti6qv_6ZWcI/AAAAAAAAMB0/PJ1wi8BhggQ/s400/16BackDetail.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; As far as I’m concerned, this pattern is rated excellent and it will most certainly be reused.

As orlas da frente, costuras laterais e cintura são adornadas com pontos corridos feitos à mão.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Molde usado:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; molde desenhado e testado pelos métodos de alta-costura tradicional, da autoria de Paco Peralta. O molde está disponível para venda &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2011/06/falda-portefeuille-skirt.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iXQ4qqs36d0/TiXI5v1v0DI/AAAAAAAAL_k/aI8tcyeyc48/s1600/Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631127803516670002" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iXQ4qqs36d0/TiXI5v1v0DI/AAAAAAAAL_k/aI8tcyeyc48/s400/Fig1.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Tecido:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Linho azul-turquesa escuro (1,8m) e forro azul.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Antes de mostrar os detalhes, queria agradecer os calorosos elogios à &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/07/couture-et-tricot-exhibit-exposicao.html"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Exposição Couture et Tricot&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;, que creio ter sido um sucesso. Esta exposição nasceu no contexto de uma iniciativa do gabinete de comunicação e imagem da &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.ptinovacao.pt/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PT Inovação&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;, que visa divulgar e promover os passatempos dos seus colaboradores. A maioria das peças expostas foram mostradas aqui, inclusivamente o &lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/search/label/casaco%20Orwell%20-%20Orwell%20Coat"&gt;casaco Orwell&lt;/a&gt; (o preto e branco) foi extensamente documentado, foi o projecto estreia deste blogue. A máquina de costura foi emprestada, para ajudar a criar um canto estilo Ateliê de costura, creio que foi o adereço perfeito. A todos, MUITO OBRIGADA!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prosseguindo com a saia, o modelo aparentemente simples contém detalhes muito elaborados, tanto no corte como na confecção. Cortei o tamanho M e a única alteração que fiz foi omitir a costura central das costas, cortando as costas na dobra (descontando os valores de costura incluídos no molde). O molde contém peças separadas para o forro e vistas, e tudo encaixa na perfeição. Optei por fechar completamente o forro, cosendo-o à bainha. A confecção não é complicada, eis um &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;resumo dos passos que segui&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1 – Tratar os tecidos lavando-os num programa ligeiro e passando muito bem a ferro com vapor, para encolherem o que tiverem de encolher&lt;br /&gt;2 – Copiar o molde e cortar as peças em tecido e em forro (convém sempre certificar as medidas do nosso corpo com as do molde, se necessário fazer um modelo de prova)&lt;br /&gt;3 – Cortar e aplicar a ferro as entretelas (entretela de malha mais fina para “underlining”, ou seja, reforço ligeiro das partes da frente e costas, o que ajuda a estabilizar o tecido e a reduzir as engelhas; entretela tecida ligeiramente mais forte para as vistas da cintura e vistas orlas da frente)&lt;br /&gt;4 – Passar todas as marcações do molde para as peças de tecido entreteladas com alinhavos&lt;br /&gt;5 – Iniciar a confecção cosendo as pinças tanto nas peças em tecido como nas de forro; assentar as pinças a ferro para o centro (pode-se alinhavar as pinças e as costuras laterais dos panos da saia para uma primeira prova, antes de coser à máquina)&lt;br /&gt;6 – Coser as costuras laterais (nos panos da saia, nos panos do forro e nas vistas da cintura); assentar os valores de costura para as costas na saia, para a frente nas vistas da cintura, tendo o cuidado de escalar as margens de costura; abrir a ferro as costuras laterais do forro)&lt;br /&gt;7 – Coser as vistas das orlas da frente ao forro, tendo atenção ao canto em baixo, que deve conter uma dobra do excedente do forro; assentar as margens em direcção ao forro&lt;br /&gt;8 – Coser as vistas da cintura ao forro/vistas das orlas; fica assim completa a camada interior da saia&lt;br /&gt;9 – Coser à mão pontos corridos com linha torçal ao longo da costura lateral da saia (terminamos a camada exterior)&lt;br /&gt;10 – Unir a saia ao forro/vistas pela costura da cintura apenas; terminar no canto (não atravessar os valores de costura laterais). Assentar as margens em direcção da vista da cintura, escalar e pespontar rente à costura do lado da vista&lt;br /&gt;11 – Virar o forro para fora, direito contra direito e fechar as costuras das orlas da frente. Escalar as orlas e não esquecer de golpear ao longo das orlas arredondadas; unir o extremo da vista da orla com as margens da bainha das costas da saia (atenção, é preciso aparar os cantos e abrir as costuras a ferro para reduzir o volume destas costuras)&lt;br /&gt;12 – Virar tudo para o direito, alinhavar e assentar a ferro as orlas e a baínha atrás&lt;br /&gt;13 – Coser a bainha da saia atrás à mão; coser também à mão a orla da bainha do forro à bainha da saia, fechando assim completamente o forro&lt;br /&gt;14 – Coser pontos corridos com torçal ao longo da orla da frente e da cintura&lt;br /&gt;15 – Forrar mola de pressão e aplica-la no cós na linha central da frente&lt;br /&gt;16 – Coser os colchetes na orla direita da frente e na aposição desta orla na saia, de forma a não ficarem visíveis&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mais fotos da saia:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-M6VOSNAWenM/TiXIxcd3QrI/AAAAAAAAL_c/falguHcB1O4/s1600/02Front.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631127660877267634" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-M6VOSNAWenM/TiXIxcd3QrI/AAAAAAAAL_c/falguHcB1O4/s400/02Front.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6M0B60dR4hQ/TiXIuNxOPjI/AAAAAAAAL_U/SfsIyWA6CpI/s1600/05Back.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631127605392326194" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6M0B60dR4hQ/TiXIuNxOPjI/AAAAAAAAL_U/SfsIyWA6CpI/s400/05Back.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;De lado:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-acsOQnXPj0s/TiXIqB9XYMI/AAAAAAAAL_M/zE0uCFTvAvU/s1600/03Side.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631127533502554306" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-acsOQnXPj0s/TiXIqB9XYMI/AAAAAAAAL_M/zE0uCFTvAvU/s400/03Side.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-SlQx8C_lS-A/TiXImGEGKHI/AAAAAAAAL_E/yt6F_D_4cFw/s1600/04SideDetail.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631127465885050994" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-SlQx8C_lS-A/TiXImGEGKHI/AAAAAAAAL_E/yt6F_D_4cFw/s400/04SideDetail.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Os colchetes e a mola de pressão forrada:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nCWLsCyEKHA/TiXIe7yiSfI/AAAAAAAAL-8/79mnEE43fWw/s1600/06Closure.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631127342867958258" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nCWLsCyEKHA/TiXIe7yiSfI/AAAAAAAAL-8/79mnEE43fWw/s400/06Closure.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Znya6cZ81XQ/TiXIV8pstII/AAAAAAAAL-0/etZ4Ot0j5pY/s1600/07CoveredSnap.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631127188480504962" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Znya6cZ81XQ/TiXIV8pstII/AAAAAAAAL-0/etZ4Ot0j5pY/s400/07CoveredSnap.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O canto do forro na vista da orla da frente:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Aw4WgZVJn5U/TiXIRyjMPEI/AAAAAAAAL-s/7LgBhuxK-18/s1600/08RoundCornerLining.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631127117049379906" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Aw4WgZVJn5U/TiXIRyjMPEI/AAAAAAAAL-s/7LgBhuxK-18/s400/08RoundCornerLining.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As etiquetas (minha e do paco):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-nQ8az7BvTeo/TiXINmZIt4I/AAAAAAAAL-k/KFVxZjVCI2k/s1600/09TwoLabels.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631127045066504066" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-nQ8az7BvTeo/TiXINmZIt4I/AAAAAAAAL-k/KFVxZjVCI2k/s400/09TwoLabels.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Conclusão:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Foi com enorme prazer que concluí mais uma peça baseada num molde do Paco. Sou sincera, não costumo usar saias deste comprimento, mas adorei esta em particular e acho que me fica muito bem (comprovem &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/07/haute-couture-skirt-pattern-by-paco.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;). Como já tinha referido no &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2011/06/falda-portefeuille-skirt.html"&gt;seu artigo&lt;/a&gt;, o Paco inspirou-se em alguns modelos vintage de Yves Saint Laurent quando criou este modelo; mais tarde verificou que a casa Yves Saint Laurent, provavelmente inspirando-se nos seus mesmos modelos passados, recriou as mesmas linhas (ver &lt;a href="http://www.style.com/fashionshows/complete/2011PF-YSLRG"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt; e também &lt;a href="http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/164154"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt; exemplos). Creio que as saias deste género vão ver-se muito, especialmente na próxima estação, baseando-me nas leituras mais recentes das próximas tendências para este prognóstico. Espero que tenham gostado de mas esta aventura de costura!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English190711"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OWe_2-4PxL0/TiXI_jZjQ4I/AAAAAAAAL_s/MtDS2XvaOAU/s1600/01Main.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 252px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631127903256396674" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OWe_2-4PxL0/TiXI_jZjQ4I/AAAAAAAAL_s/MtDS2XvaOAU/s400/01Main.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(More pictures are published &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/07/haute-couture-skirt-pattern-by-paco.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Description:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Crossed-over A-line skirt has waist finished with inner facing. The skirt is fully lined and its slightly high waist is adjusted by darts.

The pattern is available for purchase (click &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2011/06/falda-portefeuille-skirt.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iXQ4qqs36d0/TiXI5v1v0DI/AAAAAAAAL_k/aI8tcyeyc48/s1600/Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631127803516670002" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iXQ4qqs36d0/TiXI5v1v0DI/AAAAAAAAL_k/aI8tcyeyc48/s400/Fig1.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Fabric:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Dark turquoise linen (around 6 feet) and blue lining.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Before continuing this review I’d like to thank you all for the very positive feedback regarding &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/07/couture-et-tricot-exhibit-exposicao.html"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;the Couture et Tricot Exhibit&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt; which ended last Sunday, and was a great success IMO. This Exhibit came to life because my Company (&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.ptinovacao.pt/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PT Inovacao&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;) is sponsoring a program dedicated to displaying some of their employee’s hobbies, and I was much honored to be chosen among a few other colleagues of mine. Most of the garments displayed were reviewed here (for example, the black&amp;white coat, AKA &lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/search/label/casaco%20Orwell%20-%20Orwell%20Coat"&gt;Orwell coat&lt;/a&gt;, was my starring project when I started this blog and all the construction process was thoroughly documented). The vintage “Oliva” sewing machine was a loan and was the perfect adornment for creating a “Couture Atelier-like corner” in the display space. To all of you, my deepest thanks!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Resuming the skirt review, don’t be fooled by the apparent simplicity of this model. It comprises very elaborate details, both in the architecture and finishing. I cut a M (medium) size and the only alteration (by personal choice and not necessity) was omitting the center-back seam, cutting the back on the fold (taking off the CB SA width which is included in the pattern). The pattern includes separate pieces for the lining and facings and everything came together smoothly and precisely. I also opted for sewing the lining to the skirt hem, therefore closing it completely, but this is optional. Here’s a wrap-up of what I did:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1 – Pre-treated the fabric, washing on a gentle cycle and steam pressing&lt;br /&gt;2 – Copied and cut the pattern, cut the fabric and lining pieces (always confront your personal measurements with the pattern’s measurements; if necessary make a muslin to test the fit first)&lt;br /&gt;3 – Cut and apply all the fusible interfacings (thin knit for underlining back and front and slightly heavier woven interfacing for the waist and front edge facings)&lt;br /&gt;4 – Thread-trace all the relevant markings (darts, center lines, notches), transferring them from the pattern to the interfaced fabric&lt;br /&gt;5 –Start the construction by stitching the darts and pressing them towards the center line (on both fabric and lining pieces); before this step, if you didn’t make a muslin, you may hand baste the darts and the side seams and test the fit, making adjustments if necessary)&lt;br /&gt;6 – Stitch the skirt side seams (skirt and lining pieces) and the waist facing side seams; grade and press the allowances to the back (skirt), to the front on the waist facings and press open the lining side seams&lt;br /&gt;7 – Stitch the front edge/hem facings to the lining; mind the bottom corner which should comprise a small fold on the lining for wearing ease. Press the allowances towards the lining&lt;br /&gt;8 – Stitch the waist facings to the lining/edge facings; the inner layer is complete&lt;br /&gt;9 – Finish the “pressed towards the back” side seams with saddle stitches using buttonhole thread; the outer shell is complete&lt;br /&gt;10 – Place both shells right sides facing and stitch along the waist seam, not crossing over the edge allowances (ending 5/8” before the edge). Press towards the facing and understitch&lt;br /&gt;11- With right sides facing together, stitch along the front edges and bottom edge, ending at the side seam. Grade all the allowances; don’t forget to also notch along the round corners. Stitch the facing side seam to the side back hem allowance, notching/clipping the corners and pressing open all seams to reduce bulk.&lt;br /&gt;12 – Turn everything to the right side, baste and press the back hem and all edges.&lt;br /&gt;13 – Hand stitch the back hem; also hand stitch the lining back hem to the skirt back hem, thus closing the lining completely.&lt;br /&gt;14 – Saddle stitch along the waist and front edges, ending at the side seams&lt;br /&gt;15 – Apply a covered snap to the upper center point on the front of the skirt&lt;br /&gt;16 – Apply hook &amp;amp; Eyes to the right upper front edge and to the opposing point on the skirt&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More pictures:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-M6VOSNAWenM/TiXIxcd3QrI/AAAAAAAAL_c/falguHcB1O4/s1600/02Front.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631127660877267634" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-M6VOSNAWenM/TiXIxcd3QrI/AAAAAAAAL_c/falguHcB1O4/s400/02Front.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6M0B60dR4hQ/TiXIuNxOPjI/AAAAAAAAL_U/SfsIyWA6CpI/s1600/05Back.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631127605392326194" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6M0B60dR4hQ/TiXIuNxOPjI/AAAAAAAAL_U/SfsIyWA6CpI/s400/05Back.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Side view:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-acsOQnXPj0s/TiXIqB9XYMI/AAAAAAAAL_M/zE0uCFTvAvU/s1600/03Side.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631127533502554306" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-acsOQnXPj0s/TiXIqB9XYMI/AAAAAAAAL_M/zE0uCFTvAvU/s400/03Side.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-SlQx8C_lS-A/TiXImGEGKHI/AAAAAAAAL_E/yt6F_D_4cFw/s1600/04SideDetail.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631127465885050994" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-SlQx8C_lS-A/TiXImGEGKHI/AAAAAAAAL_E/yt6F_D_4cFw/s400/04SideDetail.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The hook&amp;amp;eyes and the covered snap:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nCWLsCyEKHA/TiXIe7yiSfI/AAAAAAAAL-8/79mnEE43fWw/s1600/06Closure.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631127342867958258" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nCWLsCyEKHA/TiXIe7yiSfI/AAAAAAAAL-8/79mnEE43fWw/s400/06Closure.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Znya6cZ81XQ/TiXIV8pstII/AAAAAAAAL-0/etZ4Ot0j5pY/s1600/07CoveredSnap.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631127188480504962" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Znya6cZ81XQ/TiXIV8pstII/AAAAAAAAL-0/etZ4Ot0j5pY/s400/07CoveredSnap.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The bottom front corner on the inside:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Aw4WgZVJn5U/TiXIRyjMPEI/AAAAAAAAL-s/7LgBhuxK-18/s1600/08RoundCornerLining.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631127117049379906" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Aw4WgZVJn5U/TiXIRyjMPEI/AAAAAAAAL-s/7LgBhuxK-18/s400/08RoundCornerLining.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My label and Paco’s side by side:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-nQ8az7BvTeo/TiXINmZIt4I/AAAAAAAAL-k/KFVxZjVCI2k/s1600/09TwoLabels.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631127045066504066" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-nQ8az7BvTeo/TiXINmZIt4I/AAAAAAAAL-k/KFVxZjVCI2k/s400/09TwoLabels.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; It was with great pleasure that I took this project based on Paco’s pattern into such a great quality garment. I kid you not: I don’t usually wear skirts of this length since they are not my style, but when I saw this skirt I loved it, I knew right away I had to make one and I honestly think it looks great on me (more pictures &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/07/haute-couture-skirt-pattern-by-paco.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;). As Paco already mentioned &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2011/06/falda-portefeuille-skirt.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;, he found his inspiration in some vintage YSL skirt models. Proof that great minds think alike, the house of YSL also featured very similar style skirts recently (just a few examples &lt;a href="http://www.style.com/fashionshows/complete/2011PF-YSLRG"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/164154"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;) and it’s my belief that this style of midi-skirts will be a strong trend next season. Hope you enjoyed this sewing adventure as much as I did!!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Couture et Tricot is licensed with a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs license&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1707374644461378032-8795042786112365084?l=tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/feeds/8795042786112365084/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1707374644461378032&amp;postID=8795042786112365084&amp;isPopup=true' title='19 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1707374644461378032/posts/default/8795042786112365084'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1707374644461378032/posts/default/8795042786112365084'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/07/201121-falda-portefeuille-pattern-by.html' title='2011#21 – “Falda Portefeuille” (pattern by Paco Peralta)'/><author><name>Tany</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01073735708031525696</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://www.friendsofpr.com/tany/Blue_Goth_Girl.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OWe_2-4PxL0/TiXI_jZjQ4I/AAAAAAAAL_s/MtDS2XvaOAU/s72-c/01Main.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>19</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1707374644461378032.post-8811220961483783431</id><published>2011-07-11T21:09:00.017+01:00</published><updated>2011-07-11T21:29:59.875+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Geral - General'/><title type='text'>Couture et Tricot Exhibit – Exposição Couture et Tricot</title><content type='html'>&lt;b&gt;Português&lt;/b&gt;&lt;input value="ButtonPortuguese" onclick="portugueseexpandcollapse('Portuguese110711')" type="checkbox" checked=true&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffff33;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;em&gt;English (uncheck the other box and check this one)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;input value="ButtonEnglish" onclick="englishexpandcollapse('English110711')" type="checkbox"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postportugueseshow" id="Portuguese110711"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-chcgeMvRLXQ/ThtaIlgfIAI/AAAAAAAAL9g/M8RuxLcimyE/s1600/Fig1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-chcgeMvRLXQ/ThtaIlgfIAI/AAAAAAAAL9g/M8RuxLcimyE/s400/Fig1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5628191262883389442" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Há algum tempo fui convidada pelo Gabinete de Comunicação e Imagem da PT Inovação (local onde trabalho) para elaborar uma pequena mostra acerca do meu passatempo favorito.

today the exhibit went open and here are a few first hand photos just before the grand opening. This exhibit includes some of my favorite pieces, all handcrafted with love, and also souvenirs of some friends that I had the great honor of meeting through blogging. Thank you all for your kind support, you guys are the absolute best!

Este modelo não me correu bem de início. Demasiado confiante na tabela de medidas e em experiências anteriores com calças Patrones, não me ocorreu medir o molde. A verdade é que já tinha as calças praticamente terminadas quando as provei e cheguei à triste conclusão que não as conseguia apertar. A primeira coisa que me passou pela cabeça foi por as calças de lado, talvez comprar umas numa loja (já tinha visto umas semelhantes à venda). Depois pensei em faze-las de novo, alargando o molde. Fui tentar arranjar tecido igual, mas já tinha esgotado… Finalmente resolvi desmanchar as calças de lado e coser umas tiras do pouco tecido que tinha sobrado (tive de cortar as tiras ao longo da largura do tecido, pois tinha sobrado pouco). É claro que não foi uma tarefa simples: tive que descoser os pespontos do cós, os bolsos, e as costuras laterais, mas no final consegui fazer com que as calças resultassem e servissem. As tiras apenas levaram entretela na parte superior, com uma largura do dobro da vista do cós, de forma a serem cosidas às costuras laterais das calças e das vistas numa só costura. Os bolsos tiveram de ser quase completamente refeitos. Deu-me muito trabalho, mas acho que valeu a pena, e gosto mais das linhas destas calças do que das que vi na loja.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Detalhes:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Frente e costas:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-3CznsOmPECk/ThhmT92ot2I/AAAAAAAAL6A/VydQblaMWQ4/s1600/04Front.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5627360227606706018" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-3CznsOmPECk/ThhmT92ot2I/AAAAAAAAL6A/VydQblaMWQ4/s400/04Front.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VtovXhlljio/ThhmQUIHl4I/AAAAAAAAL54/Mu3KR-sfYGQ/s1600/05Back.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5627360164866135938" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VtovXhlljio/ThhmQUIHl4I/AAAAAAAAL54/Mu3KR-sfYGQ/s400/05Back.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Os bolsos metidos nas costuras:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fZJhFiV3yqE/ThhmM7ZmNUI/AAAAAAAAL5w/aniQm_suif8/s1600/06SidePocket.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5627360106688951618" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fZJhFiV3yqE/ThhmM7ZmNUI/AAAAAAAAL5w/aniQm_suif8/s400/06SidePocket.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Os botões metálicos estilo marinheiro:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-pXjQDxp6SiE/ThhmIyb0emI/AAAAAAAAL5o/Z-kw413xztg/s1600/07Button.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5627360035562879586" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-pXjQDxp6SiE/ThhmIyb0emI/AAAAAAAAL5o/Z-kw413xztg/s400/07Button.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O acabamento por dentro:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-cVLehib0I18/ThhmFAjJNmI/AAAAAAAAL5g/5oR7WexUcr8/s1600/08WrongSide.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5627359970632218210" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-cVLehib0I18/ThhmFAjJNmI/AAAAAAAAL5g/5oR7WexUcr8/s400/08WrongSide.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As aberturas de abotoar são talvez a parte mais desafiante deste projecto. O método fez-me lembrar a construção de uma abertura de manga avivada, só que aqui o vivo é bem maior. O molde tem uma espécie de pinça onde ficará a abertura. Reforcei com um pesponto à máquina antes de cortar a abertura e reforcei com um quadrado de entretela o seu vértice; no restante segui a metodologia explicada nas instruções.

Com a minha falta de tempo demorei quase três semanas a ter estas calças prontas,… As coisas devem melhorar em termos de tempo lá para meados da próxima semana, uma vez que vou tirar uns dias de férias. &lt;s&gt;Mais tarde mostro-vos fotos com as calças vestidas no meu outro blogue&lt;/s&gt; Já me podem ver a usar as calças &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/07/red-sailor-pants-diy-calcas-marinheiro.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;.

Eager to get the pants done, I trusted my previous experience with Patrones pants and went ahead without measuring the pattern and checking its sizing. The pants were nearly done (this happened last weekend), just needed hemming and sewing in the buttons, when I first tried them on. To my dismay, I learned that it was impossible to button up the pants closed on my body. When this happened my first reaction was tossing the pants away and looking to buy similar ones (I happened to spot similar style red pants earlier in the week at a RTW shop). Having had so much work to get the plackets done properly, making them all over again from scratch seemed like a masochistic task. The next day I went to the RTW store and picked up the red pants but something in the model was off, I wasn’t satisfied and instead of buying it I went to the nearby fabric store to buy some more red crepe (I was more receptive to the thought of starting all over again by then; a good night sleep makes wonders to your perspective). Again I was devastated because there wasn’t any red crepe left, it was sold out. Getting back to the RTW store and buying the other red pants was an option, but I didn’t go for it. I started thinking of a way to save at least part of my previous work and I came up with the idea of adding side panels (I had to cut them on grosgrain because I had just a small length of leftover red crepe at home). Armed with the seam ripper, the side seams, the side pockets and all the topstitching had to go; I cut two side panels, interfaced one end of each by two times the waist facing width and stitched them to the side seams and waist facings, remaking the inseam pockets in the process. The upper end of the panels would function as facing. It was time consuming but it was well worth it in the end; the pants fit quite well and I liked their style lines much better than those from the RTW store.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Details:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Front and back:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-3CznsOmPECk/ThhmT92ot2I/AAAAAAAAL6A/VydQblaMWQ4/s1600/04Front.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5627360227606706018" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-3CznsOmPECk/ThhmT92ot2I/AAAAAAAAL6A/VydQblaMWQ4/s400/04Front.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VtovXhlljio/ThhmQUIHl4I/AAAAAAAAL54/Mu3KR-sfYGQ/s1600/05Back.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5627360164866135938" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VtovXhlljio/ThhmQUIHl4I/AAAAAAAAL54/Mu3KR-sfYGQ/s400/05Back.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The in-seam pockets:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fZJhFiV3yqE/ThhmM7ZmNUI/AAAAAAAAL5w/aniQm_suif8/s1600/06SidePocket.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5627360106688951618" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fZJhFiV3yqE/ThhmM7ZmNUI/AAAAAAAAL5w/aniQm_suif8/s400/06SidePocket.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The sailor style metal buttons:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-pXjQDxp6SiE/ThhmIyb0emI/AAAAAAAAL5o/Z-kw413xztg/s1600/07Button.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5627360035562879586" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-pXjQDxp6SiE/ThhmIyb0emI/AAAAAAAAL5o/Z-kw413xztg/s400/07Button.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The finishing on the wrong side:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-cVLehib0I18/ThhmFAjJNmI/AAAAAAAAL5g/5oR7WexUcr8/s1600/08WrongSide.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5627359970632218210" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-cVLehib0I18/ThhmFAjJNmI/AAAAAAAAL5g/5oR7WexUcr8/s400/08WrongSide.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The front placket construction is the most defying part of this project. I followed the magazine’s instructions but added a few steps of my own, like reinforcing the stitching lines of the vertical opening with a machine stitch and interfacing its vertex before cutting it open (the opening outline resembles a vertical dart). The construction somehow reminded me of the way of finishing a shirt sleeve opening. I didn’t have the time to document the process and I don’t advise this pattern to the inexperienced.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-qY3q5WDFCgM/ThhmBhddoVI/AAAAAAAAL5Y/VFzWZEGTL4g/s1600/09ButtonPlacket.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5627359910747283794" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-qY3q5WDFCgM/ThhmBhddoVI/AAAAAAAAL5Y/VFzWZEGTL4g/s400/09ButtonPlacket.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The hem allowance is nearly three inches long and is topstitched:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-uKgbdPoh4ko/ThhliZJvEAI/AAAAAAAAL5Q/YyA-XrGS8-w/s1600/10Hem.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5627359375941111810" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-uKgbdPoh4ko/ThhliZJvEAI/AAAAAAAAL5Q/YyA-XrGS8-w/s400/10Hem.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here’s my label on the back’s wrong side:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-N5k6e0y_zKo/ThhlOYDj7jI/AAAAAAAAL5I/bcsuB_F6nko/s1600/11Label.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5627359032049397298" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-N5k6e0y_zKo/ThhlOYDj7jI/AAAAAAAAL5I/bcsuB_F6nko/s400/11Label.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; I’m glad I didn’t throw down the towel because the pants came out really awesome. It was time consuming and troublesome, and with my lack of time these pants were in the making for almost three weeks. I’m hoping to get more time soon and to be able to catch up on my friends blogs as well. From Wednesday on I’ll be at home for a short break so I’ll get a well deserved rest and some quality time for my hobbies! &lt;s&gt;I’ll publish pictures of me wearing these pants as soon as I can, over at my wardrobe blog&lt;/s&gt; Click &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/07/red-sailor-pants-diy-calcas-marinheiro.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; to see me wearing these pants.

Aqui têm um resumo do que fiz durante este tempo:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;2011#14 – Calças largas marfim com cós elástico negro&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-PMS0SINFfhk/TguJvP0S0jI/AAAAAAAAL4M/m3rYDle4AZc/s1600/Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5623740004494922290" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-PMS0SINFfhk/TguJvP0S0jI/AAAAAAAAL4M/m3rYDle4AZc/s400/Fig1.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Molde utilizado: BurdaStyle Junho 2011, modelo 114B&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bCP5f2THLhY/TguJrx77cII/AAAAAAAAL4E/zBU_Y91mAUE/s1600/Fig2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 314px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5623739944934273154" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bCP5f2THLhY/TguJrx77cII/AAAAAAAAL4E/zBU_Y91mAUE/s400/Fig2.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Em vez do cós com elásticos metidos optei por um elástico próprio que se aplica directamente na orla superior das calças (franze-se a orla com um ponto corrido solto ao tamanho do elástico, e cose-se o elástico com um ponto de ziguezague sobre o direito das calças).

O plano de corte indica cortar todas as partes (frente e costas) em viés, mas como temos uma costura no centro das costas optei por cortar apenas a frente em viés. Isto evita que a costura do centro das costas deforme por ser cortada em viés.

Antecipando este problema, a Burda Portuguesa fornece instruções com esquemas destes passos, uma ajuda preciosa às principiantes!&lt;br /&gt;O tecido é uma imitação de camurça sintética (conseguida através de um Amigo), não é difícil de coser mas pode dar alguns problemas a passar a ferro. O aspecto resultante é parecido ao da camurça natural fininha.

Fui pondo a napa à volta da anca à medida que fazia o plissado, até achar que a saia tinha a roda pretendida. Depois fiz uma bainha estreita, franzi a orla superior e cosi o elástico para o cós. Por último foi necessário fechar a costura central de trás, cosendo sobre a napa e o elástico de uma só vez, tendo atenção para respeitar o plissado (a costura coincide com uma nervura cosida no avesso, e assim nem se nota a costura). Fácil de fazer, mas bastante trabalhosa!

Fiquem bem e boas costuras!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English290611"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;As you’ve probably noticed, I’ve been absent from blogging for some time now… My time is very short and there have been other concerns that keep me busy and focused elsewhere. In spite of this, those who know me well know that I always find a way of sewing something, if nothing else some simple/quick projects to fulfill my addiction. Here’s a roundup of the projects completed during my absence:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;2011#14 – Ivory wide pants with contrasting black elastic waist&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-PMS0SINFfhk/TguJvP0S0jI/AAAAAAAAL4M/m3rYDle4AZc/s1600/Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5623740004494922290" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-PMS0SINFfhk/TguJvP0S0jI/AAAAAAAAL4M/m3rYDle4AZc/s400/Fig1.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pattern used: BurdaStyle June 2011, model 114B&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bCP5f2THLhY/TguJrx77cII/AAAAAAAAL4E/zBU_Y91mAUE/s1600/Fig2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 314px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5623739944934273154" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bCP5f2THLhY/TguJrx77cII/AAAAAAAAL4E/zBU_Y91mAUE/s400/Fig2.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The original model has an elastic casing waistband but I opted for ready-on waistband elastic instead. It’s very easy to apply; first ease stitch the waist edge of the pants with a loose running stitch, until it matches the elastic waistband (cut with enough length to be tight yet comfortable around the waist, plus seam allowances). Then pin the elastic band to the waist edge of the pants and zigzag stitch along the edge (just above the elastic frill). It’s easy and effective and the pants turned out really nice and comfortable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-aNSYDmPBuGk/TguJolgWi-I/AAAAAAAAL38/T-Xz0USJIb0/s1600/Fig3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5623739890057776098" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-aNSYDmPBuGk/TguJolgWi-I/AAAAAAAAL38/T-Xz0USJIb0/s400/Fig3.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-qStdPZjzI_4/TguJlFkmRdI/AAAAAAAAL30/qiSqXz2FDWA/s1600/Fig4.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5623739829946041810" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-qStdPZjzI_4/TguJlFkmRdI/AAAAAAAAL30/qiSqXz2FDWA/s400/Fig4.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;2011#15 – Grey wide pants with contrasting elastic waist&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-LnuyJLuLmZY/TguJg2H7jmI/AAAAAAAAL3s/bxOwXHhOGyc/s1600/Fig5.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5623739757079793250" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-LnuyJLuLmZY/TguJg2H7jmI/AAAAAAAAL3s/bxOwXHhOGyc/s400/Fig5.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ups, there’s a cat sitting there… Sorry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-oSGm71sM5-k/TguJdcnLSGI/AAAAAAAAL3k/PGo4gdLwemM/s1600/Fig6.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5623739698691917922" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-oSGm71sM5-k/TguJdcnLSGI/AAAAAAAAL3k/PGo4gdLwemM/s400/Fig6.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are the same as the previous pants, just used other fabric.

The cutting layout has you cutting both front and backs on the bias; I don’t think this is a good idea when there's a center back seam (it will inevitably stretch), so I cut the back pieces on grain instead.

The Portuguese BurdaStyle anticipated this problem and included a few schematic drawings illustrating the process. I have no idea if the other language BurdaStyles included the same illustrated instructions or not.&lt;br /&gt;The fabric mimics faux suede very well, yet it’s not easy to press (it’s not crisp, and the stitching tends to get puckered). I got the fabric with the help of a good friend. It resembles the thin suede quite well, so I'm happy with the end result.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-XQahBWx_FFI/TguIiuOVOXI/AAAAAAAAL1s/UpODWo08VVM/s1600/Fig21.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5623738689807268210" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-XQahBWx_FFI/TguIiuOVOXI/AAAAAAAAL1s/UpODWo08VVM/s400/Fig21.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OsRyDD4y0nQ/TguIfA7uW-I/AAAAAAAAL1k/80nffnbvUwg/s1600/Fig22.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5623738626110020578" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OsRyDD4y0nQ/TguIfA7uW-I/AAAAAAAAL1k/80nffnbvUwg/s400/Fig22.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7v_3vOFYqq0/TguIbmHCtyI/AAAAAAAAL1c/eSm66ndBUAo/s1600/Fig23.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5623738567370127138" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7v_3vOFYqq0/TguIbmHCtyI/AAAAAAAAL1c/eSm66ndBUAo/s400/Fig23.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;2011#19 – Pleated leather mini-skirt&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-uV7reuuG9ns/TguIWW2drZI/AAAAAAAAL1U/qu6DpDC0Knk/s1600/Fig24.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5623738477374713234" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-uV7reuuG9ns/TguIWW2drZI/AAAAAAAAL1U/qu6DpDC0Knk/s400/Fig24.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you care to see pictures of me wearing this skirt, click &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/11/2011-11-09-skater-style-diy-skirt-saia.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I made this mini-skirt inspired by some RTW models that I’ve been seeing around. I tried on some of these RTW leather pleated skirts and they were either too short for me, too full or a little of both, so I decided to make my own. I cut a long rectangle of pleather (I think I started with nearly twice my hip measure) as wide as the intended skirt length plus hem allowance. Then I chalk traced the pleats (they are a little more than an inch apart) on the wrong side and start stitching along the folds, alternating the stitching on the right side and the wrong side, forming the pleats. When I reached my hip measure (the pleated pleather, I mean), I made a few more pleats, trying on the rectangle around my hips until I got the intended fullness. Then I stitched a narrow hem and ease stitched the opposing edge (the waistline) to meet the length of the elastic. In the end I stitched the back seam on both pleather and elastic in a single step. The only concern is making sure the back seam coincides with an inward pleat, thus making this seam completely unnoticeable to the eye. And ta-dah! We have a pleated leather skirt! It’s easy to do, yet very time consuming. Here are a couple more detail shots:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-50ueV6QKYpQ/TguIS8KdL9I/AAAAAAAAL1M/P5IpUYcD-Z4/s1600/Fig25.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5623738418671202258" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-50ueV6QKYpQ/TguIS8KdL9I/AAAAAAAAL1M/P5IpUYcD-Z4/s400/Fig25.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0BTkR4r5fZo/TguIOekZhoI/AAAAAAAAL1E/bJQLmdqnIMw/s1600/Fig26.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5623738342007473794" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0BTkR4r5fZo/TguIOekZhoI/AAAAAAAAL1E/bJQLmdqnIMw/s400/Fig26.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope you liked this set of easy/quick projects… It’s always hard to find the time to make everything I envision, and even more to update my blogs regularly but I do my best to keep you guys posted whenever I can.

As fotos estão escuras, foram tiradas à noite mal o terminei, mas o vestido não tem assim tantos detalhes, por isso acho que passam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Molde usado&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;: &lt;a href="http://voguepatterns.mccall.com/v1250-products-14161.php?page_id=174"&gt;Vogue 1250&lt;/a&gt; (tamanho 12, um pouco mais comprido)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-wk4r9vG0awg/Td1M5Vkc4ZI/AAAAAAAALxo/c1NugEAXoRo/s1600/V1250.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 379px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610725258699792786" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-wk4r9vG0awg/Td1M5Vkc4ZI/AAAAAAAALxo/c1NugEAXoRo/s400/V1250.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-PnEco9Z0U5Y/Td1M16YTUYI/AAAAAAAALxg/WTp56TpkF_4/s1600/V1250_ld.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 365px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 397px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610725199861469570" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-PnEco9Z0U5Y/Td1M16YTUYI/AAAAAAAALxg/WTp56TpkF_4/s400/V1250_ld.gif" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Descrição:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; O vestido é justo e tem apenas duas peças: a frente do vestido (inteira) e a saia são cortados numa peça só com uma costura central atrás; as costas superiores são a peça restante, que se cose à saia atrás, aos lados e aos ombros. Não se consegue muito mais fácil do que isto…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Tecido:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; é recomendado usar tecidos de malha bi-extensíveis apenas. Usei um jersey fininho com aspecto acetinado.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Vrmn2BhDzlo/Td1MxAfzj-I/AAAAAAAALxY/lGcMUMKC9v8/s1600/02Back.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 286px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610725115604209634" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Vrmn2BhDzlo/Td1MxAfzj-I/AAAAAAAALxY/lGcMUMKC9v8/s400/02Back.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A característica mais marcante do vestido é o decote, que é realmente muito bonito:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kkz2CB_o4cw/Td1MhAvlG6I/AAAAAAAALxI/aQBXwCdcaFE/s1600/03Detail.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610724840792464290" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kkz2CB_o4cw/Td1MhAvlG6I/AAAAAAAALxI/aQBXwCdcaFE/s400/03Detail.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Conclusão:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Aprovado! Demorou-me cerca de duas horas a fazer e fica muito bem (fotos de mim a usá-lo serão publicadas mais tarde no meu blogue de guarda-roupa).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;2011#13 – Um vestido para a Miss Francisca&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bV94ilTRV9I/Td1MppTzXdI/AAAAAAAALxQ/5Bc3kjW7dj8/s1600/04Main.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610724989120765394" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bV94ilTRV9I/Td1MppTzXdI/AAAAAAAALxQ/5Bc3kjW7dj8/s400/04Main.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Esta foi a minha prenda de Aniversário para a minha afilhada! O molde (basicamente o molde do corpete, a saia é um rectângulo) foi desenhado a olho, sem tirar medidas, pois queria que fosse uma surpresa também para os Pais! O vestido tem um corte muito simples, mas um tecido de algodão tipo cambraia muito bonito, bordado com fios brancos e prateados e com umas folhagens pintadas em tons de amarelo e preto. Atrás tem um fecho invisível e é completamente forrado com cambraia branca.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As costas:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TfCrVlok4Ig/Td1McN8pMMI/AAAAAAAALxA/SIrfHtCWqeM/s1600/05Back.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610724758437572802" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TfCrVlok4Ig/Td1McN8pMMI/AAAAAAAALxA/SIrfHtCWqeM/s400/05Back.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O fecho invisível e o forro:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1uAo5GVyxOI/Td1MVULetAI/AAAAAAAALw4/w7lRfX90nsA/s1600/06Zipper.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610724639851328514" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1uAo5GVyxOI/Td1MVULetAI/AAAAAAAALw4/w7lRfX90nsA/s400/06Zipper.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Ti9ScjcpZlU/Td1MPzcMj7I/AAAAAAAALww/-cbfk_3DISo/s1600/07Skirt.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610724545163726770" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Ti9ScjcpZlU/Td1MPzcMj7I/AAAAAAAALww/-cbfk_3DISo/s400/07Skirt.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Foi uma emoção até à hora de vestir o vestido, a ver se lhe servia! E serviu mesmo! Eu bem disse que guardei o melhor para o fim, não disse?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3WBE6FFSRqM/Td1MLLgsVDI/AAAAAAAALwo/A5EuFV_rTx0/s1600/008Francisca.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 394px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610724465725690930" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3WBE6FFSRqM/Td1MLLgsVDI/AAAAAAAALwo/A5EuFV_rTx0/s400/008Francisca.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English250511"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;2011#12 – LBD with cowl neckline&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-wx7B9d7jtfM/Td1M9VU_r5I/AAAAAAAALxw/4A15HKK8wCY/s1600/01Main.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 295px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610725327354441618" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-wx7B9d7jtfM/Td1M9VU_r5I/AAAAAAAALxw/4A15HKK8wCY/s400/01Main.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe one of the easiest dresses that I’ve made so far… I intended to wear it at dinner party but I ended up not being able to attend so I haven’t worn it yet. The pictures were taken in the evening, just right after finishing the dress and are dark, but since there isn’t many details worth pointing out, I think they’ll pass.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Pattern used:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;a href="http://voguepatterns.mccall.com/v1250-products-14161.php?page_id=174"&gt;Vogue 1250&lt;/a&gt; (size 12, slightly lengthened)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-wk4r9vG0awg/Td1M5Vkc4ZI/AAAAAAAALxo/c1NugEAXoRo/s1600/V1250.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 379px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610725258699792786" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-wk4r9vG0awg/Td1M5Vkc4ZI/AAAAAAAALxo/c1NugEAXoRo/s400/V1250.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-PnEco9Z0U5Y/Td1M16YTUYI/AAAAAAAALxg/WTp56TpkF_4/s1600/V1250_ld.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 365px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 397px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610725199861469570" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-PnEco9Z0U5Y/Td1M16YTUYI/AAAAAAAALxg/WTp56TpkF_4/s400/V1250_ld.gif" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Description:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Close fitting dress has two pieces: the entire front and the skirt back are cut in a single piece with a CB seam on the skirt and the remaining piece is the upper back which is sewn to the skirt, sides and shoulders of the dress. It doesn’t get much easier than this…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Fabric:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; It’s recommended the use of two-way stretch knits only. I used black thin satin jersey for my dress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Vrmn2BhDzlo/Td1MxAfzj-I/AAAAAAAALxY/lGcMUMKC9v8/s1600/02Back.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 286px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610725115604209634" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Vrmn2BhDzlo/Td1MxAfzj-I/AAAAAAAALxY/lGcMUMKC9v8/s400/02Back.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The main feature of the dress is its cowl neckline, it drapes beautifully:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kkz2CB_o4cw/Td1MhAvlG6I/AAAAAAAALxI/aQBXwCdcaFE/s1600/03Detail.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610724840792464290" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kkz2CB_o4cw/Td1MhAvlG6I/AAAAAAAALxI/aQBXwCdcaFE/s400/03Detail.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Approved! It took me about two hours to complete and it looks really well on (pictures will follow – at my wardrobe blog - as soon as I get some time to take them… )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;2011#13 – Miss Francisca’s dress&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bV94ilTRV9I/Td1MppTzXdI/AAAAAAAALxQ/5Bc3kjW7dj8/s1600/04Main.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610724989120765394" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bV94ilTRV9I/Td1MppTzXdI/AAAAAAAALxQ/5Bc3kjW7dj8/s400/04Main.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This dress was my 3rd Birthday gift to my Goddaughter! The pattern was self drafted eyeing her measurements (I didn’t want to spoil the surprise for the parents!). The style lines are really simple (basically it’s a plain sleeveless bodice and the skirt is a rectangle), but the cotton fabric is really beautiful, with thin topstitching lines in white and silver and some painted leaves in yellow and black. On the center back there’s an invisible zipper and the dress is fully lined in white chambray.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The back:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TfCrVlok4Ig/Td1McN8pMMI/AAAAAAAALxA/SIrfHtCWqeM/s1600/05Back.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610724758437572802" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TfCrVlok4Ig/Td1McN8pMMI/AAAAAAAALxA/SIrfHtCWqeM/s400/05Back.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The invisible zipper and the lining:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1uAo5GVyxOI/Td1MVULetAI/AAAAAAAALw4/w7lRfX90nsA/s1600/06Zipper.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610724639851328514" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1uAo5GVyxOI/Td1MVULetAI/AAAAAAAALw4/w7lRfX90nsA/s400/06Zipper.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Ti9ScjcpZlU/Td1MPzcMj7I/AAAAAAAALww/-cbfk_3DISo/s1600/07Skirt.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610724545163726770" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Ti9ScjcpZlU/Td1MPzcMj7I/AAAAAAAALww/-cbfk_3DISo/s400/07Skirt.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was really anxious to see if the dress would fit, like I said I didn’t take any measurements… And it fitted her like a charm!

Este vestido foi feito (e usado) no domingo passado no aniversário do meu pai.

Um vestido relativamente fácil (“relativamente” porque o encaixe necessita de alguma habilidade para ficar perfeito), que me demorou cerca de 5 horas a fazer. O estilo lembra-me um pouco os vestidos dos anos 60, e acho que ficou muito bem. Na festa de anos do meu pai usai-o com um blazer branco e sandálias brancas, mas não tive tempo de tirar fotos antes de sair de casa… Ficará para uma próxima vez! Entretanto ainda tenho mais dois projectos para mostrar… Fiquem bem!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English220511"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-8Qb4xVzSyAk/TdjhDR2HijI/AAAAAAAALv4/NRPFeqpOwQk/s1600/01Main.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 270px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5609480782336199218" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-8Qb4xVzSyAk/TdjhDR2HijI/AAAAAAAALv4/NRPFeqpOwQk/s400/01Main.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ETA: pictures of me wearing the dress are published &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/08/tangerine-dress-diy-o-vestido-tangerina.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I’ve been quite busy again and very short of time, but during the weekends I still manage to sew something. Last weekend I had my father’s birthday party to attend and I decided to make a dress for the event. I finished it in the last minute and didn’t have time to take pictures of the outfit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Description:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Straight line dress with front and back yoke, in-seam topstitched pockets and back zipper.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Pattern used:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.simplicity.com/p-1828-missmiss-petite-dresses.aspx"&gt;Simplicity2922&lt;/a&gt;, the sleeveless dress version (cut size 12 and lengthened it a little, enough to cover the knee)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-NpMBvKdZwfA/TdjhABaXMpI/AAAAAAAALvw/EVUSXPaPeJQ/s1600/Simplicity2922.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

This dress was relatively easy to make (I say “relatively” because the yoke requires some skill to be done properly), and it took me around 5 hours to complete. Its style reminds me of some dresses in the 60’s and I think it turned out quite well in spite of being made in a hurry. I wore it with a white blazer and white sandals at my father’s birthday party, but I left home in a hurry and didn’t have time to snap some outfit photos,... I’ll take a rain check for that, if you don’t mind! I still have two more completed projects to show, I’ll try to post them as soon as I can!

Lembro-me que na altura pensei em usar um tecido cinza prateado, para um efeito “espacial”, mas entretanto, influenciada pelas montras de algumas lojas e pelas recentes tendências, comecei a desejar um blazer cor-de-rosa e como tinha apenas 1,55m deste tecido, e era essa a quantidade de tecido necessária para este blazer, resolvi fazê-lo em rosa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Molde usado:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Revista Patrones nº300, modelo 33 (tracei o tamanho intermédio 42):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-biZan_sOSN4/Tc8CkAzE8iI/AAAAAAAALuY/q1U8CmEX2so/s1600/Patrones300mod33.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702878812336674" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-biZan_sOSN4/Tc8CkAzE8iI/AAAAAAAALuY/q1U8CmEX2so/s400/Patrones300mod33.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-j2zUAMsVtn8/Tc8Cg4c8vHI/AAAAAAAALuQ/bKXygsNBZcM/s1600/Patrones300mod33_ld.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 293px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702825032432754" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-j2zUAMsVtn8/Tc8Cg4c8vHI/AAAAAAAALuQ/bKXygsNBZcM/s400/Patrones300mod33_ld.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Material:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; 1,55m de sarja sintética em rosa vivo, 1,10m de forro, entretela termo-colante, linhas de coser e dois pares de colchetes. O tecido é baratucho (provavelmente poliéster) e foi comprado ao retalho (juntamente com mais peças do mesmo tecido noutras cores também muito na moda que estiveram disponíveis em saldo). Apesar de ser um tecido barato, trabalha-se bem e o resultado agradou-me bastante.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iWfHJbWMq5w/Tc8CcfqSPCI/AAAAAAAALuI/-LFlxC5ambE/s1600/Fig2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 351px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702749658004514" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iWfHJbWMq5w/Tc8CcfqSPCI/AAAAAAAALuI/-LFlxC5ambE/s400/Fig2.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Artigos relacionados:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/05/pink-blazer-on-making-blazer-cor-de.html"&gt;Construção da parte exterior (aplicação adicional de entretelas)&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/05/inner-shell-of-pink-blazer-parte-de.html"&gt;Construção da parte interior e acabamentos finais&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vamos então dar uma olhada nos &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;detalhes&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;; em primeiro lugar, a gola de alfaiate em pé, a característica que inicialmente me atraiu neste modelo&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-I4lAKrGP85Q/Tc8CYhhGZmI/AAAAAAAALuA/La1QNjm8Yjk/s1600/Fig3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702681436874338" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-I4lAKrGP85Q/Tc8CYhhGZmI/AAAAAAAALuA/La1QNjm8Yjk/s400/Fig3.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As mangas também são fora do vulgar, embora isso não seja aparente numa análise superficial do modelo na revista; os ombros são estreitos e a sua largura reduzida é compensada por uma extensão da cabeça da manga, a qual tem uma costura superior à semelhança de uma manga raglan. No meu entender esta manga é um misto de manga normal com raglan, com um efeito de ombros poderosos muito ao estilo “Balmain”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YrKW3rh0_KE/Tc8CU5Z4ogI/AAAAAAAALt4/J9tmOiITT0I/s1600/Fig4.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702619129586178" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YrKW3rh0_KE/Tc8CU5Z4ogI/AAAAAAAALt4/J9tmOiITT0I/s400/Fig4.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-YOFpsa1OK9M/Tc8CRRjkDzI/AAAAAAAALtw/p2-nXZKM_vo/s1600/Fig5.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702556893155122" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-YOFpsa1OK9M/Tc8CRRjkDzI/AAAAAAAALtw/p2-nXZKM_vo/s400/Fig5.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Outra característica é a banda da cintura que existe apenas na parte frontal e o fecho com colchetes, um toque minimalista também muito actual.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-OX5KQ4vV1X8/Tc8CNjQD4LI/AAAAAAAALto/hCrK7KXQJpU/s1600/Fig6.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702492923715762" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-OX5KQ4vV1X8/Tc8CNjQD4LI/AAAAAAAALto/hCrK7KXQJpU/s400/Fig6.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Decidi usar forro branco ao reparar que este tecido é ligeiramente transparente, deixando antever as entretelas brancas usadas como reforço pelo lado direito.

Uma das modificações que ela fez foi abater um pouco a curva das mangas para não ficarem tão saídas e estreitar a manga. No meu caso optei pela forma original, mas também poderia ter ajustado um pouco a manga em largura, mesmo deixando a curva em cima, uma vez que tem ainda folga para isso… Tenho que dizer que já tive a experiência contrária com moldes Patrones, mangas demasiado justas, por isso é sempre melhor não confiar e medir o molde se pretenderem um efeito específico.&lt;br /&gt;A propósito, alguém reparou que este molde também se pode adaptar facilmente a uma jaqueta sem gola? Basta retirar as lapelas e a gola e desenhar umas vistas para a zona do decote atrás e ao longo da orla superior da frente… Talvez tente esta interpretação no futuro! Fiquem bem e obrigada por todo o apoio!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fotos de mim a usar o blazer &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/05/pink-blazer-diy-blazer-cor-de-rosa.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Editado para acrescentar: se quiserem ver fotos dos chumaços que usei, cliquem &lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2008/02/chumaos-de-alfaiate-tailor-shoulder.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt; e desçam até às últimas duas fotos.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English150511"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ureYsUkS3Vs/Tc8Cn1XlJyI/AAAAAAAALug/lWyv7JnkgXc/s1600/Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702944463693602" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ureYsUkS3Vs/Tc8Cn1XlJyI/AAAAAAAALug/lWyv7JnkgXc/s400/Fig1.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Description:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Lined blazer with standing notched collar, power shoulders, waist inset on the front and hook&amp;amp;eye closure&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I first saw this model I knew I had to make it because I was looking for a collar design like this for quite some time. I remember that my first thought was to make it in silvery fabric because I had seen a blazer in silver with a standing notched collar and really loved its style. Sometime later the spring collections hit the stores and I became really inspired by color, I start coveting a pink blazer that I saw and, before buying it I decided to see if I could find some pink fabric and make my own pink blazer. I saw this remnant at the fabric store, there was only 1.7 yards left, the exact amount needed for the Patrones blazer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Pattern used:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Patrones magazine n300, model 33 (I traced the intermediate size 42)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-biZan_sOSN4/Tc8CkAzE8iI/AAAAAAAALuY/q1U8CmEX2so/s1600/Patrones300mod33.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702878812336674" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-biZan_sOSN4/Tc8CkAzE8iI/AAAAAAAALuY/q1U8CmEX2so/s400/Patrones300mod33.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-j2zUAMsVtn8/Tc8Cg4c8vHI/AAAAAAAALuQ/bKXygsNBZcM/s1600/Patrones300mod33_ld.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 293px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702825032432754" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-j2zUAMsVtn8/Tc8Cg4c8vHI/AAAAAAAALuQ/bKXygsNBZcM/s400/Patrones300mod33_ld.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Materials:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; 1.7 yards of synthetic blend fabric, 1.2 yards of lining, fusible interfacing, sewing thread and two hook&amp;amp;eye sets. The fabric was cheap (I bought a small amount of remnant fabrics all in fashionable spring colors at very good price). Besides being no big deal of a fabric, it was quite easy to work with and the end result was great in my opinion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iWfHJbWMq5w/Tc8CcfqSPCI/AAAAAAAALuI/-LFlxC5ambE/s1600/Fig2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 351px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702749658004514" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iWfHJbWMq5w/Tc8CcfqSPCI/AAAAAAAALuI/-LFlxC5ambE/s400/Fig2.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Related posts on this project:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/05/pink-blazer-on-making-blazer-cor-de.html"&gt;Outer shell construction (includes additional interfacing)&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/05/inner-shell-of-pink-blazer-parte-de.html"&gt;Inner shell construction and finishing details&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let’s take a look at the details then. First, the standing notched collar, the feature that first attracted me in this model:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-I4lAKrGP85Q/Tc8CYhhGZmI/AAAAAAAALuA/La1QNjm8Yjk/s1600/Fig3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702681436874338" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-I4lAKrGP85Q/Tc8CYhhGZmI/AAAAAAAALuA/La1QNjm8Yjk/s400/Fig3.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The sleeves are also out of the ordinary, though that fact is not immediately apparent from the model pictures/line drawing. The shoulders are narrower than usual and the sleeve caps compensate the shorter length by standing out a little extra. The sleeves also have a upper seam, similar to some raglan sleeve patterns, so in my opinion this sleeve style corresponds to something in between a raglan sleeve and a regular sleeve. The outcome is a somehow “Balmainish” style with power shoulders standing out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YrKW3rh0_KE/Tc8CU5Z4ogI/AAAAAAAALt4/J9tmOiITT0I/s1600/Fig4.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702619129586178" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YrKW3rh0_KE/Tc8CU5Z4ogI/AAAAAAAALt4/J9tmOiITT0I/s400/Fig4.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-YOFpsa1OK9M/Tc8CRRjkDzI/AAAAAAAALtw/p2-nXZKM_vo/s1600/Fig5.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702556893155122" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-YOFpsa1OK9M/Tc8CRRjkDzI/AAAAAAAALtw/p2-nXZKM_vo/s400/Fig5.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another feature is the waist insets/bands that exist only on the front of the blazer and the hook&amp;amp;eye closure, a minimalistic touch also very trendy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-OX5KQ4vV1X8/Tc8CNjQD4LI/AAAAAAAALto/hCrK7KXQJpU/s1600/Fig6.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702492923715762" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-OX5KQ4vV1X8/Tc8CNjQD4LI/AAAAAAAALto/hCrK7KXQJpU/s400/Fig6.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I decided on using white lining because I noticed that the white reinforcements were noticeable on the outside if using a pink lining on the inside; with a white lining the fusible blend in completely.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-dP7Oe2V7JPk/Tc8CI50HvII/AAAAAAAALtg/Asc3iI7opwU/s1600/Fig7.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702413081197698" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-dP7Oe2V7JPk/Tc8CI50HvII/AAAAAAAALtg/Asc3iI7opwU/s400/Fig7.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are the waist insets on the inside and the hooks&amp;amp;eyes sewn to the allowance inside the seam:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vAqflJXF1Bo/Tc8CEyv5_hI/AAAAAAAALtY/ZAIrbeHqdOU/s1600/Fig8.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702342464994834" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vAqflJXF1Bo/Tc8CEyv5_hI/AAAAAAAALtY/ZAIrbeHqdOU/s400/Fig8.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-nXglDUBkbjc/Tc8CBfn3VRI/AAAAAAAALtQ/oEHxrI6bM-M/s1600/Fig9.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702285791384850" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-nXglDUBkbjc/Tc8CBfn3VRI/AAAAAAAALtQ/oEHxrI6bM-M/s400/Fig9.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the lining/hem/facing junction detail (the later also known as lower center front panel):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-w0zWpmMbnSg/Tc8B9eVZvnI/AAAAAAAALtI/4w-sy4VCDeM/s1600/Fig10.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702216726036082" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-w0zWpmMbnSg/Tc8B9eVZvnI/AAAAAAAALtI/4w-sy4VCDeM/s400/Fig10.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The notched collar angle:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-AD1d_PHzbcI/Tc8B43_vmaI/AAAAAAAALtA/utPDuaJlrWs/s1600/Fig11.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606702137715169698" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-AD1d_PHzbcI/Tc8B43_vmaI/AAAAAAAALtA/utPDuaJlrWs/s400/Fig11.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Final notes:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; As I already mentioned, &lt;a href="http://scpbanks.blogspot.com/"&gt;Summerset&lt;/a&gt; is also making this blazer and I really love her interpretation, richer in details and with some modifications to the original pattern. One of the alterations Summerset did was narrowing the sleeves; I didn’t adjust the sleeve width but I recognize these are wide sleeves, so take that into account if you’re making this blazer. I don’t dislike the sleeves as they are, but narrowing them a little wouldn’t be bad either.&lt;br /&gt;Wrapping it all up, this project ended up exactly as I envisioned it, so I’m very pleased. By the way, do you realize that this pattern could also make a really cute collarless jacket? Just take out the lapels and the collar and add facings around the neckline and upper front edges and voilà! I might try this different approach myself!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pictures of me wearing the pink blazer are published &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/05/pink-blazer-diy-blazer-cor-de-rosa.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ETA: If you want to see pictures of the shoulderpads I used, click &lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2008/02/chumaos-de-alfaiate-tailor-shoulder.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; (the type I used is pictured on the last couple of pics)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Couture et Tricot is licensed with a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs license&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1707374644461378032-9066312640019775605?l=tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/feeds/9066312640019775605/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1707374644461378032&amp;postID=9066312640019775605&amp;isPopup=true' title='26 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1707374644461378032/posts/default/9066312640019775605'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1707374644461378032/posts/default/9066312640019775605'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/05/201110-pink-blazer-blazer-cor-de-rosa.html' title='2011#10: &lt;em&gt;Pink blazer&lt;/em&gt; – Blazer cor-de-rosa'/><author><name>Tany</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01073735708031525696</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://www.friendsofpr.com/tany/Blue_Goth_Girl.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ureYsUkS3Vs/Tc8Cn1XlJyI/AAAAAAAALug/lWyv7JnkgXc/s72-c/Fig1.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>26</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1707374644461378032.post-2929448617092937715</id><published>2011-05-13T20:33:00.011+01:00</published><updated>2011-05-14T00:12:11.381+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Pink blazer'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='costura - sewing'/><title type='text'>The inner shell of the pink blazer – A parte de dentro do blazer cor-de-rosa</title><content type='html'>&lt;b&gt;Português&lt;/b&gt;&lt;input value="ButtonPortuguese" onclick="portugueseexpandcollapse('Portuguese130511')" type="checkbox" checked=true&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffff33;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;em&gt;English (uncheck the other box and check this one)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;input value="ButtonEnglish" onclick="englishexpandcollapse('English130511')" type="checkbox"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postportugueseshow" id="Portuguese130511"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-95uAPC4YSvs/Tc2ILHoVDZI/AAAAAAAALsY/Vf5ruB0MqwM/s1600/Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-95uAPC4YSvs/Tc2ILHoVDZI/AAAAAAAALsY/Vf5ruB0MqwM/s400/Fig1.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606286835754274194" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NOTA: O blogger esteve em baixo por bastante tempo e os últimos comentários que recebi foram apagados; tentei repor fielmente todos os comentários em falta.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aqui têm a parte de dentro pronta para unir à parte de fora. Esta camada consiste no forro, vistas (como vistas entenda-se as partes não entreteladas do cós da frente e os painéis centrais inferiores, também não entretelados), parte de dentro da gola e das lapelas. Numa das costuras das mangas foi deixada uma abertura de 20cm para depois virar tudo para o direito, depois de unir com a parte exterior do casaco. Reparem também na pequena prega do forro junto aos painéis centrais inferiores:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-2VlK_vBhlPc/Tc2IH19__pI/AAAAAAAALsQ/t78o08ruy2I/s1600/Fig2.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-2VlK_vBhlPc/Tc2IH19__pI/AAAAAAAALsQ/t78o08ruy2I/s400/Fig2.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606286779473723026" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VjKiqT_Dmt8/Tc2IEXlniaI/AAAAAAAALsI/JdOr53yqm4A/s1600/Fig3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VjKiqT_Dmt8/Tc2IEXlniaI/AAAAAAAALsI/JdOr53yqm4A/s400/Fig3.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606286719778785698" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Esta prega está lá pois o forro é um pouco mais comprido e formará uma prega em baixo, para dar liberdade de movimentos e evitar o risco da bainha do casaco repuxar. Os painéis inferiores da frente cosem-se directamente aos painéis inferiores da parte de fora (não têm bainha), enquanto o forro é cosido à bainha do casaco que fica um pouco mais acima… É preciso um pouco de raciocínio espacial para perceber como tudo encaixa no final; este método requer que as partes sejam cortadas com precisão e que se perceba como tudo encaixa para dar certo, e não é fácil explicar ou demonstrar com fotos como se faz, é daquelas coisas que, se quiserem, têm de tentar fazer para perceberem. Se não se sentem com confiança, podem usar o método de construção mais clássico e aplicar o forro parcialmente à mão.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Outra prega que costumo deixar é no centro das costas, que também serve para dar liberdade de movimentos e evitar que o forro esgace quando vestimos o blazer:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MYx0o-3Y_TA/Tc2IA8iACLI/AAAAAAAALsA/aPmlC4gkuCk/s1600/Fig4.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MYx0o-3Y_TA/Tc2IA8iACLI/AAAAAAAALsA/aPmlC4gkuCk/s400/Fig4.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606286660976249010" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A prega está alinhavada, os alinhavos retiram-se no final.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MR337FQwSqc/Tc2H9aRnf9I/AAAAAAAALr4/tldcw887L_Q/s1600/Fig5.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MR337FQwSqc/Tc2H9aRnf9I/AAAAAAAALr4/tldcw887L_Q/s400/Fig5.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606286600241119186" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O motivo que me fez escolher este método foi o facto de não ter de me preocupar com a folga necessária para a curva da gola, uma vez que esta fica em pé. Unir as duas partes parece fácil mas requer alguma habilidade e precisão, principalmente nas esquinas e cantos, uma vez que não queremos que fiquem volumosos e com aspecto pouco profissional. Então para fazer um blazer destes é preciso alguma prática, domínio perfeito das técnicas de assentar a ferro e de escalamento, e de aparar/golpear os valores de costura para reduzir volume. Se não têm prática e mesmo assim querem fazer uma jaqueta ou casaco, escolham modelos sem gola, mais fáceis de fazer para iniciantes. Relativamente a este projecto com uma gola de bandas em que unimos as partes de fora e de dentro de uma só vez, a maior parte das pessoas vai encontrar problemas no ângulo da gola com a lapela. Repararam que a gola estava cosida às lapelas apenas até à marca do canto (na foto inicial vê-se o canto marcado com alinhavo), tanto na parte interior como exterior; juntam-se então as duas partes direito contra direito e primeiro cose-se ao longo da gola, de um canto ao outro, SEM APANHAR OS VALORES DE COSTURA (dá jeito fazer uns golpes para os revirarmos e evitar que fiquem presos na costura). Não esquecer de rematar com uns pontos atrás:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vzIbi8YNnr8/Tc2H5tFXBrI/AAAAAAAALrw/o1U7gWyl43k/s1600/Fig6.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vzIbi8YNnr8/Tc2H5tFXBrI/AAAAAAAALrw/o1U7gWyl43k/s400/Fig6.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606286536570504882" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Depois cose-se os painéis centrais da frente, continua-se para cima ao longo das lapelas para terminar exactamente no canto, sem apanhar as margens, e rematando com pontos atrás. Em seguida devem certificar-se que as costuras terminam exactamente no canto e aparar os valores de costura no canto, de forma a não criarem volume desnecessário depois de virar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Outro canto que precisa de ser bem golpeado é onde termina a lapela e começa o cós da frente, há ali muitas costuras próximas que podem ficar muito volumosas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O canto de união do painel central inferior (que funciona como vista) com a bainha e o forro já foi aqui explicando anteriormente. Resta-me apenas referir que não basta depois virar tudo para o direito; é preciso alinhavar todas as orlas, sobrepor as costuras da parte de fora com as costuras da parte de dentro, assentar tudo muito bem a ferro e dar uns pontos atrás sobre as seguintes costuras sobrepostas (os pontos afundam-se nas costuras e ficam invisíveis): costuras do cós da frente, e costuras de união da lapela e gola com o blazer. Estes pontos atrás também servem para fixar os chumaços raglan ao longo das costuras dos ombros. Na próxima foto podem-me ver a fazer estes pontos ao longo da costura de união da lapela:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VFQGbDOCRq0/Tc2H1aB_8LI/AAAAAAAALro/aW0n4r-TdE8/s1600/Fig7.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VFQGbDOCRq0/Tc2H1aB_8LI/AAAAAAAALro/aW0n4r-TdE8/s400/Fig7.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606286462736658610" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finalmente também se dá uns pontos por dentro no fundo das cavas, unindo o forro ao casaco neste ponto para as mangas não deslizarem, e no forro dá-se uns pontos nos ombros unindo o forro aos chumaços por dentro do casaco. Fica tudo bem e não vai deslizar ao usar, repuxando as mangas ou as bainhas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O blazer está pronto e já o estou a usar hoje (escolhi combinar o rosa forte com verde tropa, uma combinação fora do vulgar mas que me agrada bastante). Vou tentar escrever o artigo final aqui amanhã, mas entretanto daqui a pouco já me poderão ver a usar o blazer no meu blogue de guarda-roupa! Fiquem bem!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English130511"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-95uAPC4YSvs/Tc2ILHoVDZI/AAAAAAAALsY/Vf5ruB0MqwM/s1600/Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-95uAPC4YSvs/Tc2ILHoVDZI/AAAAAAAALsY/Vf5ruB0MqwM/s400/Fig1.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606286835754274194" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NOTE: Blogger was down for some time and some comments disappeared; I took the liberty of republishing them in the name of the authors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here’s the inner shell, ready to be joined with the outer shell of the blazer. The inner shell consists of the lining, facings (the inner bottom center panels and the inner front waistbands act as facings), inner lapels and inner collar. A section of one of the sleeves lining seam was left open to be able to turn everything to the right side after the two shells are stitched together along the edges and sleeve hems. Note the small pleat that is formed at the vertical junction of the lining with the bottom front inner panels:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-2VlK_vBhlPc/Tc2IH19__pI/AAAAAAAALsQ/t78o08ruy2I/s1600/Fig2.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-2VlK_vBhlPc/Tc2IH19__pI/AAAAAAAALsQ/t78o08ruy2I/s400/Fig2.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606286779473723026" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VjKiqT_Dmt8/Tc2IEXlniaI/AAAAAAAALsI/JdOr53yqm4A/s1600/Fig3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VjKiqT_Dmt8/Tc2IEXlniaI/AAAAAAAALsI/JdOr53yqm4A/s400/Fig3.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606286719778785698" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This pleat contains the lining wearing ease at the hem; the inner panels are stitched to one another, but the lining will be stitched to the blazer’s hem instead, which stands far above the bottom edge of the front panels. Some spatial reasoning is needed to understand how it all fits together; this method requires everything to be precisely drafted and methodically cut with the intent that all the pieces will fit together in the end. It’s not easy to explain or to demonstrate by pictures, and sometimes you need to try it yourself, perhaps build some paper models until you figure it out. If you are not confident in your abilities, you better chose any other method of construction for a blazer with a notched collar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another pleat which is necessary for wearing ease is the center back lining pleat:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MYx0o-3Y_TA/Tc2IA8iACLI/AAAAAAAALsA/aPmlC4gkuCk/s1600/Fig4.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MYx0o-3Y_TA/Tc2IA8iACLI/AAAAAAAALsA/aPmlC4gkuCk/s400/Fig4.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606286660976249010" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This pleat is hand basted and I’ll remove the basting thread when the blazer is completed and final pressed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MR337FQwSqc/Tc2H9aRnf9I/AAAAAAAALr4/tldcw887L_Q/s1600/Fig5.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MR337FQwSqc/Tc2H9aRnf9I/AAAAAAAALr4/tldcw887L_Q/s400/Fig5.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606286600241119186" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The main reason for picking this method of construction is the fact of not needing to take the collar turn of the cloth into account, because the collar is standing and not rolled down. Joining the two shells seems easy but it requires some precision sewing and expertise, mainly dealing with the notched angles and corners very present in this blazer. We don’t want excess bulk and unprofessional finishing, so we need to master pressing techniques, grading, clipping and notching of the seam allowances to be able to succeed. If you don’t have a lot of practice on doing so, and you still want to make a jacket, start with a collarless simple design instead. Back to the project in hand, the main source for trouble when using this method is the notched collar inner corner. When stitching the collar to the lapels, the stitching should end exactly at the notch mark on both shells (in the first picture you’ll notice that the notch is thread marked). First join both shells right sides facing along all edges. The collar edge is sewn first, starting exactly at one notch and ending at the other, being CAREFUL NOT TO STICTH OVER THE SEAM ALLOWANCES (clipping the allowances becomes handy in order to be able to do just that, observe the next picture). Don’t forget to backstitch:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vzIbi8YNnr8/Tc2H5tFXBrI/AAAAAAAALrw/o1U7gWyl43k/s1600/Fig6.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vzIbi8YNnr8/Tc2H5tFXBrI/AAAAAAAALrw/o1U7gWyl43k/s400/Fig6.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606286536570504882" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Again, starting at one notch (with a backstitch), not stitching over the SAs, stitch along all the front edge and the bottom of the lower center front panels, ending at the seam and not crossing over the seam allowance (to be able to stitch the facing/lining hem junction later). Observe the lapel notches and make sure the stitching starts/ends exactly at the notch point on both sides of the seams. Clip the allowances at the corner to reduce bulk (also mind the allowances of the lapel/front junction, which will be caught in between the notch seam).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There’s yet another corner that needs extra care in clipping/grading; it's the corner where the lapel ends and the waistband starts. A lot of seams interact in a small space.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The bottom hem/lining facing (bottom center panel) junction was explained before. I’ll just add that the work is not completed after everything is turned to the right side and the hems are sewn: there’s a lot of basting, pressing and tacking, making sure everything stays together in place and not shifting. I prickstitched in the ditch (basically a prickstitch is a short backstitch with the stitches far apart) some of the opposing seams of both shells: the front waistband seams, and the neckline/lapels seams. I also used the same technique to stitch the raglan shoulder pads in place, prickstitching in the ditch along the shoulder seams. Next picture will show me doing this procedure along the lapel seams:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VFQGbDOCRq0/Tc2H1aB_8LI/AAAAAAAALro/aW0n4r-TdE8/s1600/Fig7.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VFQGbDOCRq0/Tc2H1aB_8LI/AAAAAAAALro/aW0n4r-TdE8/s400/Fig7.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606286462736658610" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally, I also tack the lining to the blazer at the bottom of the armholes and the lining to the shoulder pads along the lining shoulder seams. Everything will stick together and won’t shift out of place if these steps are taken.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The blazer is completed and I’m wearing it today (I chose to combine the bubblegum pink of the blazer with army green pants and top; it’s unusual, but I like it!). I snapped a few photos when I got back from work today, I’ll publish them at my wardrobe blog as soon as possible. The final review will be published here sometime tomorrow.

Falta terminar a parte interior (forro, vistas, gola e lapelas interiores) e unir tudo… É um molde da revista Patrones:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uFEPBquIv7E/TclTPVa0itI/AAAAAAAALqQ/H7bqIF2mj8A/s1600/Patrones300mod33.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uFEPBquIv7E/TclTPVa0itI/AAAAAAAALqQ/H7bqIF2mj8A/s400/Patrones300mod33.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605102734152075986" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As instruções são muito poupadinhas na entretela: apenas pedem para entretelar uma parte da gola, um conjunto de lapelas e um conjunto de cós da frente (tipicamente as partes que ficam do lado de fora do blazer)… Sei que é um modelo de verão, por isso não pede muito reforço para não ficar pesado nem demasiado rígido, mas mesmo assim… Vou mostrar então os reforços que apliquei, além dos mencionados nas instruções. Utilizei uma entretela tipo gaze muito flexível, para não dar demasiada rigidez.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As partes centrais superiores da frente; é sempre bom reforçar as frentes para um acabamento perfeito, a não ser que seja um modelo de jaqueta solto estilo “camisa” ou drapeado. Reparem também que além da entretela, a cava é reforçada com fita termo-colante própria e que as pinças e as linhas de aposição estão todas marcadas com alinhavos (como é óbvio, as marcações fazem-se depois de aplicar as entretelas):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-CW4cMenTHTM/TclTMkqtFyI/AAAAAAAALqI/SC6FXyzug-4/s1600/Fig2.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-CW4cMenTHTM/TclTMkqtFyI/AAAAAAAALqI/SC6FXyzug-4/s400/Fig2.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605102686705620770" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Esqueci-me de mostrar fotos da parte central inferior, o quadrado que fica por baixo da cintura no meio da frente (é cortado 4 vezes, 2 das peças funcionarão como vistas por dentro); um conjunto de duas peças foi completamente entretelado (as peças que ficam na parte exterior).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Os encaixes laterais superiores: completamente entretelados e novamente a cava foi reforçada. Estes reforços ajudam a cava a suportar o peso da manga, sem abater&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_KN01d6BKQA/TclTJlwYPqI/AAAAAAAALqA/LUS4fl_7Uok/s1600/Fig3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_KN01d6BKQA/TclTJlwYPqI/AAAAAAAALqA/LUS4fl_7Uok/s400/Fig3.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605102635458248354" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As costas: A parte superior das costas e as bainhas (a altura total do reforço das bainhas é sempre = 2 x altura da bainha + 1cm), além da fita a reforçar as cavas e o decote:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-HpgtEzsbt1I/TclTFj0oycI/AAAAAAAALp4/6e0AbTyhP1I/s1600/Fig4.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-HpgtEzsbt1I/TclTFj0oycI/AAAAAAAALp4/6e0AbTyhP1I/s400/Fig4.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605102566219762114" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As bainhas nas partes laterais abaixo da cintura; aqui bastou entretelar as bainhas, uma vez que a parte lateral superior já está toda reforçada.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-s-tXkLb7Dw4/TclTCINzDxI/AAAAAAAALpw/IzUe-e9d2Ew/s1600/Fig5.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-s-tXkLb7Dw4/TclTCINzDxI/AAAAAAAALpw/IzUe-e9d2Ew/s400/Fig5.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605102507269492498" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As bainhas em todas as peças das mangas:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-dpdePDhd1ZU/TclS_ObUL5I/AAAAAAAALpo/Hvxx331LnwM/s1600/Fig6.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-dpdePDhd1ZU/TclS_ObUL5I/AAAAAAAALpo/Hvxx331LnwM/s400/Fig6.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605102457397194642" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isto é o que considero mínimo em termos de reforços. Dependendo do tecido, as partes das vistas, lapelas e gola interiores também poderiam ser entreteladas com uma entretela fininha, as beiras da frente e das lapelas poderiam ser reforçadas com fita, etc., mas neste caso, com este tecido não achei necessário.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quanto à construção, vou divergir das instruções em alguns pontos: a aplicação da gola é um deles, em vez de seguir as instruções vou fazer a parte exterior do casaco completa incluindo as partes da gola e a parte interior, com a parte interna da gola e das vistas, e no final unir tudo direito contra direito e virar. Outra coisa que fiz diferente foi a aplicação das mangas: em vez de coser as costuras dos ombros e as laterais, coser as costuras inferior e superior fechando as mangas e depois unir as mangas às cavas, resolvi deixar a costura dos ombros aberta, assim como a costura superior das mangas; coser as mangas assim abertas à cava e depois coser o ombro e a costura superior das mangas numa só vez. Faz muito mais sentido num modelo cuja manga tem uma costura no topo, na minha opinião.&lt;br /&gt;Além disto estou a estudar a hipótese de elasticizar a cintura atrás, para cintar um pouco o blazer, à semelhança do que o Paco fez na sua &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2008/01/chaqueta-confeccin-industrial.html"&gt;jaqueta de confecção industrial&lt;/a&gt;. Ainda tenho que fazer uma última prova para determinar se o farei ou não. Ah, e quase me esquecia, este blazer fica melhor com chumaços raglan, pelo que pude ver experimentando vários tipos (nota: os chumaços ainda não estão colocados na foto inicial deste artigo).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finalmente gostaria de partilhar uma dica acerca de passar a ferro uma pinça cujo tecido é cortado aberto para reduzir o seu volume; por vezes acontece que a ponta fica com um aspecto meio foleiro, e o que costumo fazer, além de reduzir o comprimento do ponto da máquina ao chegar à ponta, é usar um palito para ajudar a esticar a ponta enquanto se passa a pinça a ferro (passa-se a pinça aberta do avesso e depois pode-se dar mais um jeitinho do direito, com cuidado e com um pano de passar por cima para proteger o tecido):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-eRTLaqBjAc8/TclS7T8MTAI/AAAAAAAALpg/kyz-21NWafw/s1600/Fig7.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-eRTLaqBjAc8/TclS7T8MTAI/AAAAAAAALpg/kyz-21NWafw/s400/Fig7.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605102390157790210" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KVYovj-K_bs/TclS4WX9SII/AAAAAAAALpY/rtZS7WhnfFw/s1600/Fig8.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KVYovj-K_bs/TclS4WX9SII/AAAAAAAALpY/rtZS7WhnfFw/s400/Fig8.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605102339271510146" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lembro-me que quem me chamou à atenção para esta dica pela primeira vez foi a Sewing Diva Els, &lt;a href="http://thesewingdivas.wordpress.com/2007/06/18/sewing-a-french-dart/"&gt;neste artigo&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finalmente, a &lt;a href="http://scpbanks.blogspot.com/"&gt;Summerset&lt;/a&gt; também está a fazer este modelo! A interpretação dela é fabulosa, mais “couture” e detalhada, e com algumas modificações, como a diminuição da curva na cabeça das mangas e o estreitamento das mesmas. No meu caso, estou a pensar deixar a manga como está, pois até gostei de ver o efeito dos ombros saídos com o blazer vestido depois de colocar os chumaços raglan, mas ainda posso mudar de ideias e alterar a cabeça das mangas, como fez a Summerset.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Durante a semana temos um feriado aqui em Aveiro no dia 12 de Maio, o Dia da Cidade e também Feriado de &lt;a href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Joana,_Princesa_de_Portugal"&gt;Santa Joana Princesa&lt;/a&gt;, padroeira de Aveiro, e vou tentar aproveitar algum tempo durante esse feriado para terminar o blazer. Até lá, fiquem bem!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English100511"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9cryQBkCqQE/TclTTQZSexI/AAAAAAAALqY/oDAUxva5eqA/s1600/Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9cryQBkCqQE/TclTTQZSexI/AAAAAAAALqY/oDAUxva5eqA/s400/Fig1.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605102801522948882" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I traced the pattern for this jacket two weekends ago and was able to start the construction this past weekend, during which I managed to sew the outer shell of the jacket and start the construction of the inner shell. The pattern is from a Patrones magazine:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uFEPBquIv7E/TclTPVa0itI/AAAAAAAALqQ/H7bqIF2mj8A/s1600/Patrones300mod33.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uFEPBquIv7E/TclTPVa0itI/AAAAAAAALqQ/H7bqIF2mj8A/s400/Patrones300mod33.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605102734152075986" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I found the instructions lacking in terms of interfacing requirements: they only mention interfacing one collar piece, one set of the front waistband pieces (left and right) and one set of the lapels, if I recall it well. I realize this is presented as a summer model made of summery fabric, so it shouldn’t require as much reinforcements but is this really enough? I don’t think so. I used a gauze type of interfacing that adds some structure yet keeping the fabric soft and pliable and here’s what I did, adding to the instructions:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The center front pieces (upper bodice): it’s always a good idea to provide some structure to the front of a jacket, unless the jacket body is to be loose resembling as a shirt or is draped of some sort. Also notice the fusing tape on the armhole and the basting marking the darts and the notches (the marking is made after the fusing process, of course):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-CW4cMenTHTM/TclTMkqtFyI/AAAAAAAALqI/SC6FXyzug-4/s1600/Fig2.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-CW4cMenTHTM/TclTMkqtFyI/AAAAAAAALqI/SC6FXyzug-4/s400/Fig2.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605102686705620770" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not shown here are the center skirt pieces of the jacket (cut 4 times, 2 of which will act like facings). Two of these pieces (the ones which are not facings) were also full interfaced.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The upper side panels: they were full interfaced and the armhole was reinforced too. All these reinforcements are not a waste of time and money; they help support the weight of the sleeve without collapsing the front/back and also prevent the armhole from stretching and losing its ideal shape.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_KN01d6BKQA/TclTJlwYPqI/AAAAAAAALqA/LUS4fl_7Uok/s1600/Fig3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_KN01d6BKQA/TclTJlwYPqI/AAAAAAAALqA/LUS4fl_7Uok/s400/Fig3.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605102635458248354" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The back: the upper back area and armholes was interfaced (depending on the fabric you should use a back shield made of lightweight fabric instead) as were the hem allowances (double the hem height plus a little bit in interfacing). Both armholes and neckline were taped:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-HpgtEzsbt1I/TclTFj0oycI/AAAAAAAALp4/6e0AbTyhP1I/s1600/Fig4.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-HpgtEzsbt1I/TclTFj0oycI/AAAAAAAALp4/6e0AbTyhP1I/s400/Fig4.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605102566219762114" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The hems on the lower lateral panels were interfaced:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-s-tXkLb7Dw4/TclTCINzDxI/AAAAAAAALpw/IzUe-e9d2Ew/s1600/Fig5.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-s-tXkLb7Dw4/TclTCINzDxI/AAAAAAAALpw/IzUe-e9d2Ew/s400/Fig5.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605102507269492498" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All the sleeve pieces have the hem allowances interfaced the same way:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-dpdePDhd1ZU/TclS_ObUL5I/AAAAAAAALpo/Hvxx331LnwM/s1600/Fig6.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-dpdePDhd1ZU/TclS_ObUL5I/AAAAAAAALpo/Hvxx331LnwM/s400/Fig6.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605102457397194642" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the very least in terms of interfacing, in my opinion; depending on the fabric, the facings and inner collar/lapels could also be interfaced with lightweight fusible and the front edges/lapel edges could also be taped.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Regarding the construction, I diverged from the Patrones instructions a couple of times: the collar was one; I decided to build the outer shell including outer lapels and collar and the inner shell including lining, facings, inner collar and inner lapels. In the end I will stitch everything together along the edges and turn it to the right side. I also took a different approach for the sleeves; instead of stitching all the sleeve seams, side and shoulder seams and then stitch the sleeves to the jacket’s armhole, I took advantage of the existence of the upper seam on the sleeves. I left the shoulder seam and the upper sleeve seam open, stitched the sleeves to the armholes and in the end I stitched the shoulder seam and the upper sleeve seam as a single step. It makes more sense when there’s an upper sleeve seam, in my opinion.&lt;br /&gt;I’m also pondering on adding an elasticized waist to the back of the jacket, as Paco did with his &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2008/01/chaqueta-confeccin-industrial.html"&gt;industrial method jacket&lt;/a&gt;, but I still have to try the jacket on one more time before making up my mind. Oh, and I almost forgot: I tried several types of shoulder pads and the ones which seem to adjust better to the sleeve cap are the raglan type, so I’ll be using them (note: the shoulder pads are not set in place in the picture shown above).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally I’d like to share a tip on pressing open the dart’s end tip. I used a toothpick, as demonstrated by sewing Diva Els in &lt;a href="http://thesewingdivas.wordpress.com/2007/06/18/sewing-a-french-dart/"&gt;this article&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-eRTLaqBjAc8/TclS7T8MTAI/AAAAAAAALpg/kyz-21NWafw/s1600/Fig7.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-eRTLaqBjAc8/TclS7T8MTAI/AAAAAAAALpg/kyz-21NWafw/s400/Fig7.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605102390157790210" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KVYovj-K_bs/TclS4WX9SII/AAAAAAAALpY/rtZS7WhnfFw/s1600/Fig8.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KVYovj-K_bs/TclS4WX9SII/AAAAAAAALpY/rtZS7WhnfFw/s400/Fig8.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605102339271510146" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last but not least, &lt;a href="http://scpbanks.blogspot.com/"&gt;Summerset&lt;/a&gt; is also making this same jacket! Her interpretation is fabulous, more “couture” and detailed, using fabulous fabric and adding a few alterations to the original pattern. For example she narrowed the sleeve and also flattened the sleeve curve on the sleeve cap. I’m kind of leaning towards keeping the curve as it is because I liked the power shoulders effect especially with the shoulder pads set in place but I may yet change my mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thursday is our city holiday, the 12th of May dedicated to &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joan,_Princess_of_Portugal"&gt;Saint Joanna the Princess&lt;/a&gt;, patron of Aveiro. I’ll try to save some time for finishing the jacket then!

A ideia era fazer um vestido tubo sem mangas, para depois poder usar o vestido de forma mais casual (o modelo original da revista é feito em tecido de renda e é mais formal). Para fazer um vestido de malha deste género podem utilizar qualquer molde de vestido tubo, inclusivamente sem pinças de peito (este tem porque não foi desenhado para malhas com elasticidade). Queria um efeito solto e este modelo ligeiramente evasé pareceu-me adequado. Como foi feito de malha, dispensa a abertura atrás. Também resolvi fazê-lo sem as mangas, contribuindo para um ar mais fresco e desportivo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ZodCq2UHCTo/TcEvsza3jVI/AAAAAAAALmQ/FlVD3jR6DSY/s1600/03Fig2.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 377px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ZodCq2UHCTo/TcEvsza3jVI/AAAAAAAALmQ/FlVD3jR6DSY/s400/03Fig2.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602811858189258066" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O vestido foi forrado com jersey liso da mesma cor. O único cuidado que é preciso  ao cortar é colocar as duas partes do molde de maneira a que os folhinhos coincidam na lateral do vestido. Para a confecção utilizei um passo-a-passo FANTÁSTICO e muito rápido que pode ser utilizado para forrar qualquer vestido sem mangas, seja de malha ou não. O passo-a-passo da autoria da &lt;a href="http://encue.blogspot.com/"&gt;Nancywin&lt;/a&gt; foi publicado no PatternReview (&lt;a href="http://sewing.patternreview.com/cgi-bin/review/readreview.pl?ID=1618"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;) e as fotos encontram-se no álbum PicasaWeb da Nancy (&lt;a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/nwinning/LiningASleevelessDress#5134312431292933650"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;). Como está escrito em Inglês, vou fazer o meu melhor para traduzi-lo para Português (abram as fotos do passo-a-passo numa janela à parte, para poderem associar o texto às imagens):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fig1-“Este é um passo-a-passo básico sobre o método que uso para forrar um vestido ou top sem mangas. Podem encontrar explicações mais detalhadas no livro Easy Guide to Sewing Linings, de Connie Long.”&lt;br /&gt;Fig2 – “Primeiro completa-se a frente e as costas do vestido e do forro. Unem-se respectivamente pelas costuras dos ombros. Aqui neste caso, a vista do encaixe funciona como parte do forro.”&lt;br /&gt;Fig3 – “Agora prende-se com alfinetes (nota: direito contra direito) o vestido e o forro ao longo da orla do decote. Tenha atenção para as costuras dos ombros ficarem alinhadas, assim como a linha do centro da frente e das costas. Coser a toda a volta. Golpear nas curvas e aparar as margens (gosto de usar a tesoura de corte ziguezague caso o tecido do vestido ou do forro desfiem com facilidade).”&lt;br /&gt;Fig4 – “Assentar a ferro as margens na direcção do forro e coser um pesponto rente à costura, do lado do forro.” (isto segura os valores de costura na direcção do forro)&lt;br /&gt;Fig5 – “Virar para o direito e assentar bem a orla do decote, para que a costura fique exactamente na beira ou um pouco para dentro.”&lt;br /&gt;Fig6 – “Com o vestido ainda do direito, enrolar um dos lados em direcção à costura da cava que queremos fechar”&lt;br /&gt;Fig7 – “Agora, girar as beiras da costura que queremos coser sobre o rolo, para que o tecido enrolado fique entre a cava do vestido e do forro (as duas cavas, vestido e forro, ficam juntas direito contra direito agora). Prender com alfinetes e coser ao longo da cava (unindo forro e vestido). Aparar as margens e golpear nas curvas. Puxar o vestido por dentro do ombro. Parece que não vai resultar mas resulta.”&lt;br /&gt;Fig8 – “Depois de ter puxado o vestido pelo interior do ombro (entre o forro e o vestido, portanto), assentar a ferro a costura sobre uma almofada de alfaiate para um acabamento perfeito. Repetir tudo na outra cava.&lt;br /&gt;Agora cose-se as costuras dos lados do vestido e do forro, numa costura só de cada lado. Fazer o acabamento na bainha do forro e do vestido. E é tudo!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Espero que tenham entendido como se faz, pois este passo-a-passo é mesmo muito útil e poupa muito trabalho!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No meu caso, como estou a trabalhar com jersey, optei por pespontar as orlas com o ponto elástico, como podem ver nas fotos de detalhe (no caso das cavas os pespontos foram feitos depois de coser as costuras laterais):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-G91eUYdbLnw/TcEvpfvt_eI/AAAAAAAALmI/6PPLPxKcTNY/s1600/04Fig3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-G91eUYdbLnw/TcEvpfvt_eI/AAAAAAAALmI/6PPLPxKcTNY/s400/04Fig3.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602811801368395234" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-J-omHKjHXeM/TcEvlEaYn4I/AAAAAAAALmA/YYMA-kl66yM/s1600/05Fig4.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-J-omHKjHXeM/TcEvlEaYn4I/AAAAAAAALmA/YYMA-kl66yM/s400/05Fig4.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602811725311680386" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Conclusão: Um vestido muito simples que ficou terminado em menos de duas horas! No momento estou interessada em usá-lo de forma mais casual e vou tentar compor um coordenado mais desportivo com ele (por exemplo com uma parka ou jaqueta jeans e botins, vamos ver o que sai). Aceitam-se opiniões!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Editado para acrescentar enlace para &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/search/label/Lace%20dress%20looks"&gt;fotos minhas a ausar o vestido&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English040511"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dNToVF1NfSA/TcEvzgs1LdI/AAAAAAAALmg/-WXKDBrnhO0/s1600/01Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dNToVF1NfSA/TcEvzgs1LdI/AAAAAAAALmg/-WXKDBrnhO0/s400/01Fig1.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602811973423410642" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pattern used: BurdaStyle March 2010, model 104 (with modifications)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KvbITY_EPEQ/TcEvxM_WbWI/AAAAAAAALmY/KZ4pnRNEprM/s1600/02BS201003_vestido104_1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 277px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KvbITY_EPEQ/TcEvxM_WbWI/AAAAAAAALmY/KZ4pnRNEprM/s400/02BS201003_vestido104_1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602811933772639586" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I’ve been coveting lace dresses in light colors for some time and when I saw this knit lace I knew it could be made into a cute dress. The idea was to make a sleeveless dress, not too close fitting, that I could dress down into casual style. This pattern fills the bill in spite of being drafted for real lace and interpreted into formalwear. So, out with the sleeves and the keyhole opening on the back, which is not necessary when using stretch knit. Any other pattern, including one for knits without the chest darts, could be used for the same effect.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ZodCq2UHCTo/TcEvsza3jVI/AAAAAAAALmQ/FlVD3jR6DSY/s1600/03Fig2.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 377px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ZodCq2UHCTo/TcEvsza3jVI/AAAAAAAALmQ/FlVD3jR6DSY/s400/03Fig2.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602811858189258066" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I used ivory jersey to line the dress. The only important detail when cutting is making sure the knit lies perfectly flat that the horizontal frills match on the sides and are parallel to the hem. For the construction process I looked up this FANTASTIC tutorial by &lt;a href="http://encue.blogspot.com/"&gt;Nancywin&lt;/a&gt; which teaches a clean and quick way to line a sleeveless dress. The tutorial was published at PatternReview (click &lt;a href="http://sewing.patternreview.com/cgi-bin/review/readreview.pl?ID=1618"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;) and the pictures are available &lt;a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/nwinning/LiningASleevelessDress#5134312431292933650"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. I took the liberty of translating the text into Portuguese on the Portuguese version of this article.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope you were able to learn from this tutorial, because it’s really useful and saves a lot of work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In this particular case I opted for topstitching the edges with a narrow zigzag, as you can see next and I didn’t understitch the neckline (the armhole topstitching was done after completing the side seams):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-G91eUYdbLnw/TcEvpfvt_eI/AAAAAAAALmI/6PPLPxKcTNY/s1600/04Fig3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-G91eUYdbLnw/TcEvpfvt_eI/AAAAAAAALmI/6PPLPxKcTNY/s400/04Fig3.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602811801368395234" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-J-omHKjHXeM/TcEvlEaYn4I/AAAAAAAALmA/YYMA-kl66yM/s1600/05Fig4.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-J-omHKjHXeM/TcEvlEaYn4I/AAAAAAAALmA/YYMA-kl66yM/s400/05Fig4.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602811725311680386" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Conclusion: A really simple dress which took two hours to make! As I said, I’m interested in wearing it more casual and I will try to come up with an outfit incorporating perhaps a parka or a jeans jacket, let’s see what I will come up with. I’m open to ideas and opinions; do you think it’s possible to effectively dress down this dress? How would you do it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ETA: Pictures of me wearing the dress are published &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/search/label/Lace%20dress%20looks"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Couture et Tricot is licensed with a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs license&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1707374644461378032-5201170925475110721?l=tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/feeds/5201170925475110721/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1707374644461378032&amp;postID=5201170925475110721&amp;isPopup=true' title='36 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1707374644461378032/posts/default/5201170925475110721'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1707374644461378032/posts/default/5201170925475110721'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/05/20119-ivory-lace-dress-vestido-de-renda.html' title='2011#9 – &lt;em&gt;Ivory lace dress&lt;/em&gt; – Vestido de renda marfim'/><author><name>Tany</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01073735708031525696</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://www.friendsofpr.com/tany/Blue_Goth_Girl.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dNToVF1NfSA/TcEvzgs1LdI/AAAAAAAALmg/-WXKDBrnhO0/s72-c/01Fig1.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>36</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1707374644461378032.post-7099856903413891174</id><published>2011-05-03T16:52:00.010+01:00</published><updated>2011-05-03T17:08:42.312+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='costura 2011 - 2011 Sewing Projects'/><title type='text'>2011#8 – Pinstriped saruel jumpsuit – Macacão saruel risca-de-giz</title><content type='html'>&lt;b&gt;Português&lt;/b&gt;&lt;input value="ButtonPortuguese" onclick="portugueseexpandcollapse('Portuguese030511a')" type="checkbox" checked=true&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffff33;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;em&gt;English (uncheck the other box and check this one)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;input value="ButtonEnglish" onclick="englishexpandcollapse('English030511a')" type="checkbox"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postportugueseshow" id="Portuguese030511a"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DXrYrDxNKpk/TcAlLl1S7PI/AAAAAAAALlk/AyVB5ZqA1mc/s1600/01Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602518817513336050" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DXrYrDxNKpk/TcAlLl1S7PI/AAAAAAAALlk/AyVB5ZqA1mc/s400/01Fig1.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Modelo original&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;: Burda Easy Primavera Verão 2011, modelo 2C&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KftLnROHr8s/TcAlIv6UghI/AAAAAAAALlc/74YHJoy-R4U/s1600/02BE2011SS_macacao2C.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 307px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602518768679158290" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KftLnROHr8s/TcAlIv6UghI/AAAAAAAALlc/74YHJoy-R4U/s400/02BE2011SS_macacao2C.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;principais características&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; do macacão são as calças estilo saruel, a frente cruzada de amarrar com tiras na cintura, os ombros franzidos e os bolsos metidos nas costuras cujas funduras são pespontadas na frente das calças. Achei o modelo muito fresco e moderno, e não excluo a hipótese de o fazer outra vez com outro tecido. O modelo não é difícil de confeccionar; numa escala até 5 classificá-lo-ia com 2.5, pois ainda dá algum trabalho.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;tecido&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; que usei tem um pouquinho de elasticidade e engelha pouco (o que é óptimo). Tem umas risquinhas muito fininhas, como poderão observar nas fotos de detalhe. Este modelo deve funcionar também com tecidos sem elasticidade, como linho, algodão ou mesmo seda. Dentro dos tecidos com elasticidade também se pode usar malha.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quanto à &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;confecção&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;, segui as instruções da revista (que ainda para mais são ilustradas passo-a-passo), incluindo os reforços com fita termo-colante indicados; no entanto também reforcei com fita (não está indicado nas instruções) os panos das calças na entrada dos bolsos. A seguir podem ver o bolso metido na costura e pespontado:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RY_ret_kJEw/TcAlFUrhGpI/AAAAAAAALlU/aeBS7nF3Yp0/s1600/03Fig2.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602518709829704338" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RY_ret_kJEw/TcAlFUrhGpI/AAAAAAAALlU/aeBS7nF3Yp0/s400/03Fig2.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Os ombros franzidos:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tWEHJ6hCz1A/TcAlBVv9lUI/AAAAAAAALlM/NH7ube38ECk/s1600/04Fig3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602518641397306690" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tWEHJ6hCz1A/TcAlBVv9lUI/AAAAAAAALlM/NH7ube38ECk/s400/04Fig3.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As costas do macacão:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-a6pP2RUGGiw/TcAk8bSFpkI/AAAAAAAALlE/57nGMPTFaLs/s1600/05Fig4.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602518556983273026" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-a6pP2RUGGiw/TcAk8bSFpkI/AAAAAAAALlE/57nGMPTFaLs/s400/05Fig4.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Como podem ver, as calças atrás parecem normais.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Conclusão&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;: Fiquei fã deste modelo e achei o resultado óptimo (fotos minhas a usá-lo foram publicadas &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/05/pinstripes-and-orange-risca-de-giz-e.html?showComment=1304434947139#c3837429703664297042"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;). A revista traz também outras versões com o mesmo molde (pelo menos um macacão mais curto, uns corsários e uma túnica, que me lembre). Gostei bastante de alguns modelos da revista, todos simples mas com estilo demarcado dentro das linhas mais casuais e jovens, podendo também ser adaptados para outros estilos. A Burda Easy Fashion costuma trazer poucos moldes (além de alguns modelos que não necessitam de molde), mas cada um deles com várias variações e interpretações.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5hOrGflWzJU/TcAk4Q_qQ7I/AAAAAAAALk8/_tKB1nqxg8Q/s1600/BeasyPTe0311-Capa.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 373px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602518485502149554" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5hOrGflWzJU/TcAk4Q_qQ7I/AAAAAAAALk8/_tKB1nqxg8Q/s400/BeasyPTe0311-Capa.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(imagem da capa e do modelo, cortesia de &lt;a href="http://www.burdastyle.pt/"&gt;Burdastyle.pt&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English030511a"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DXrYrDxNKpk/TcAlLl1S7PI/AAAAAAAALlk/AyVB5ZqA1mc/s1600/01Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602518817513336050" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DXrYrDxNKpk/TcAlLl1S7PI/AAAAAAAALlk/AyVB5ZqA1mc/s400/01Fig1.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Pattern used&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;: Burda Easy SS11 model 2C&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KftLnROHr8s/TcAlIv6UghI/AAAAAAAALlc/74YHJoy-R4U/s1600/02BE2011SS_macacao2C.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 307px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602518768679158290" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KftLnROHr8s/TcAlIv6UghI/AAAAAAAALlc/74YHJoy-R4U/s400/02BE2011SS_macacao2C.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;main features&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; of this jumpsuit are the saruel style bottom, the crossed over front with waist ties the shirred shoulders and the inseam pockets with the pocket bags topstitched to the pant’s front. I found this model to be fresh and modern, and I will probably make it again using other type of fabric. It’s not difficult to make, I’d rate it a 2.5 out of 5 (because it does involve some work).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;fabric&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; that I’ve used has a little stretch and it barely wrinkles, which is great. It has a subtle pinstripe pattern, as you’ll be able to notice in the detail photos. Fabrics without any stretch (cotton, linen, silk) and knits should also work fine for this model.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;construction&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;, I followed the magazine instructions, including the fusible tape reinforcements that were advised; I just added some fusible tape to the pocket’s opening, which wasn’t mentioned in the instructions. Next there’s a view of the in-seam pocket with the pocket bag topstitched to the front:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RY_ret_kJEw/TcAlFUrhGpI/AAAAAAAALlU/aeBS7nF3Yp0/s1600/03Fig2.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602518709829704338" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RY_ret_kJEw/TcAlFUrhGpI/AAAAAAAALlU/aeBS7nF3Yp0/s400/03Fig2.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The shirring on the shoulders:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tWEHJ6hCz1A/TcAlBVv9lUI/AAAAAAAALlM/NH7ube38ECk/s1600/04Fig3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602518641397306690" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tWEHJ6hCz1A/TcAlBVv9lUI/AAAAAAAALlM/NH7ube38ECk/s400/04Fig3.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The back view:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-a6pP2RUGGiw/TcAk8bSFpkI/AAAAAAAALlE/57nGMPTFaLs/s1600/05Fig4.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602518556983273026" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-a6pP2RUGGiw/TcAk8bSFpkI/AAAAAAAALlE/57nGMPTFaLs/s400/05Fig4.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As you can see, from the back the pants seem like regular pants, no bagging at all:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Conclusion&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;: I’m quite pleased with this jumpsuit and I’m wearing it today (pictures were published &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/05/pinstripes-and-orange-risca-de-giz-e.html?showComment=1304434947139#c3837429703664297042"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;). The magazine includes several other versions using this same pattern (the ones I remember now are a knee length version of the jumpsuit, knee length pants, and a tunic), all very interesting in my opinion. The Burda Easy usually features a short number of patterns (plus a couple of models that don't need a paper pattern), each one with several variations and all easy to make. The style of the models is sportive and casual, but could be adapted to other styles, in my opinion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5hOrGflWzJU/TcAk4Q_qQ7I/AAAAAAAALk8/_tKB1nqxg8Q/s1600/BeasyPTe0311-Capa.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 373px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602518485502149554" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5hOrGflWzJU/TcAk4Q_qQ7I/AAAAAAAALk8/_tKB1nqxg8Q/s400/BeasyPTe0311-Capa.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Image of the magazine cover and original model, all courtesy of &lt;a href="http://www.burdastyle.pt/"&gt;Burdastyle.pt&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Couture et Tricot is licensed with a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs license&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1707374644461378032-7099856903413891174?l=tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/feeds/7099856903413891174/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1707374644461378032&amp;postID=7099856903413891174&amp;isPopup=true' title='12 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1707374644461378032/posts/default/7099856903413891174'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1707374644461378032/posts/default/7099856903413891174'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/05/20118-pinstriped-saruel-jumpsuit.html' title='2011#8 – &lt;em&gt;Pinstriped saruel jumpsuit&lt;/em&gt; – Macacão saruel risca-de-giz'/><author><name>Tany</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01073735708031525696</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://www.friendsofpr.com/tany/Blue_Goth_Girl.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DXrYrDxNKpk/TcAlLl1S7PI/AAAAAAAALlk/AyVB5ZqA1mc/s72-c/01Fig1.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>12</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1707374644461378032.post-3904092661672476846</id><published>2011-05-03T11:54:00.007+01:00</published><updated>2011-05-04T21:36:40.680+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='costura 2011 - 2011 Sewing Projects'/><title type='text'>2011#7 – Another Patrones “Blusón Cortefiel” – Outro top Patrones “Blusón Cortefiel”</title><content type='html'>&lt;b&gt;Português&lt;/b&gt;&lt;input value="ButtonPortuguese" onclick="portugueseexpandcollapse('Portuguese030511')" type="checkbox" checked=true&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffff33;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;em&gt;English (uncheck the other box and check this one)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;input value="ButtonEnglish" onclick="englishexpandcollapse('English030511')" type="checkbox"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postportugueseshow" id="Portuguese030511"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-QVvxU3Jk7SQ/Tb_fLRVfIBI/AAAAAAAALk0/-QyED6ALKWE/s1600/01Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-QVvxU3Jk7SQ/Tb_fLRVfIBI/AAAAAAAALk0/-QyED6ALKWE/s400/01Fig1.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602441846197264402" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Usei o mesmo molde que mostrei &lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/05/20115-top-patrones300mod29-bluson.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;, os mesmos métodos, tudo igual à excepção do tecido, que desta vez é de jersey de algodão.

Fiquei curiosa em relação aos vários painéis que compõem estas calças. Uma vez que o tecido de algodão verde que tinha aqui é bastante macio e fino, optei por não fazer os bolsos; também foi uma forma de ganhar tempo, uma vez que já sabia que estas calças iam dar algum trabalho por causa dos painéis, e queria terminá-las o mais rapidamente possível.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uM_OtOoJtGg/Tb7xljnelAI/AAAAAAAALjs/Z2obM-_uFNo/s1600/02V2973.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 295px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602180614013752322" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uM_OtOoJtGg/Tb7xljnelAI/AAAAAAAALjs/Z2obM-_uFNo/s400/02V2973.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NleMwuE9-9w/Tb7xiTgKBJI/AAAAAAAALjk/uUIo36CzIaM/s1600/03V2973.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 185px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602180558148469906" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NleMwuE9-9w/Tb7xiTgKBJI/AAAAAAAALjk/uUIo36CzIaM/s400/03V2973.gif" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A julgar pela foto no envelope, estas calças deveriam ser bastante justas, mas estava enganada quanto a isto. Mal vi o molde de papel, vi logo que eram mais no estilo de calças a direito. Por mim tudo bem, porque embora use calças e jeans muito justos, sei que as calças a direito me favorecem mais (sempre tive uma constituição de perna forte e além disso aumentei um pouco de peso desde que entrei nos 30 :P). Tracei o tamanho 12 e as calças ficaram bem, com alguma folga.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aqui têm alguns detalhes:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_tts268WVLI/Tb7xdru_OGI/AAAAAAAALjc/KqV89xucFHY/s1600/04Fig2.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602180478753781858" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_tts268WVLI/Tb7xdru_OGI/AAAAAAAALjc/KqV89xucFHY/s400/04Fig2.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-suOgpqkUpWw/Tb7xaNiJAII/AAAAAAAALjU/eVsVfB-YV98/s1600/05Fig3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 322px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602180419107225730" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-suOgpqkUpWw/Tb7xaNiJAII/AAAAAAAALjU/eVsVfB-YV98/s400/05Fig3.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-2zGv_YvGmfQ/Tb7xW-33CSI/AAAAAAAALjM/HqkBbG-Ml78/s1600/06Fig4.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602180363632183586" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-2zGv_YvGmfQ/Tb7xW-33CSI/AAAAAAAALjM/HqkBbG-Ml78/s400/06Fig4.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ZNr3aJFBbUg/Tb7xTei48uI/AAAAAAAALjE/Yjpr3gW1rmQ/s1600/07Fig5.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602180303414686434" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ZNr3aJFBbUg/Tb7xTei48uI/AAAAAAAALjE/Yjpr3gW1rmQ/s400/07Fig5.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Segui as instruções do molde para todo o processo de construção e as calças ficaram bastante bem (aviso já que há muitas peças para os joelhos e que devem tomar atenção a qual dos lados do tecido é o direito e o avesso antes de coser; tive que descoser uma costura por falta de atenção a este pormenor importante!). Tenho no entanto que referir que as instruções para o fecho de carcela não são as melhores que encontrei em moldes Vogue. Já vi instruções para um acabamento muito melhor em moldes Vogue de designer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;E é tudo quanto às calças… Estou a tentar aproveitar um momento de calmaria para actualizar o blogue com os projectos de Abril (ainda tenho mais alguns para mostrar), mas parece-me que estou mesmo no “olho da tempestade” e a calmaria não vai durar muito mais tempo…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fotos de mim a usar as calças &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/04/silver-and-green-prateado-e-verde.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English020511a"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YbAYrDtga8w/Tb7xpiVr1TI/AAAAAAAALj0/p8rJZANb650/s1600/01Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602180682390164786" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YbAYrDtga8w/Tb7xpiVr1TI/AAAAAAAALj0/p8rJZANb650/s400/01Fig1.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wanted a pair of emerald green pants (got bitten by the bright color trend bug, duh) and I picked up the pants from &lt;a href="http://voguepatterns.mccall.com/v2973-products-8325.php?page_id=300"&gt;V2973&lt;/a&gt; (Montana Vogue Paris Original). I was intrigued by the all the panel details that these pants feature. Since the green cotton fabric that I had in hand was quite soft and thin, I decided against the pockets. I wanted to be done with these pants quickly too and I knew that these weren’t going to be that quick to make because of all the panels and topstitching involved so skipping the pockets would mean saving some time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uM_OtOoJtGg/Tb7xljnelAI/AAAAAAAALjs/Z2obM-_uFNo/s1600/02V2973.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 295px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602180614013752322" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uM_OtOoJtGg/Tb7xljnelAI/AAAAAAAALjs/Z2obM-_uFNo/s400/02V2973.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NleMwuE9-9w/Tb7xiTgKBJI/AAAAAAAALjk/uUIo36CzIaM/s1600/03V2973.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 185px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602180558148469906" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NleMwuE9-9w/Tb7xiTgKBJI/AAAAAAAALjk/uUIo36CzIaM/s400/03V2973.gif" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Judging from the envelope picture, I’d have thought these were kind of close fitting skinny pants, but I was wrong and realized they were more like straight leg pants the soon as I laid eyes on the paper pattern. I was OK with this; I do wear skinny jeans and pants but I’m aware that straight t leg pants are more flattering on me (I’ve always had strong legs, plus I’ve put on some weight since my twenties, :P). I traced a 12 and the pants are far from being tight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are some close-ups:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_tts268WVLI/Tb7xdru_OGI/AAAAAAAALjc/KqV89xucFHY/s1600/04Fig2.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602180478753781858" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_tts268WVLI/Tb7xdru_OGI/AAAAAAAALjc/KqV89xucFHY/s400/04Fig2.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-suOgpqkUpWw/Tb7xaNiJAII/AAAAAAAALjU/eVsVfB-YV98/s1600/05Fig3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 322px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602180419107225730" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-suOgpqkUpWw/Tb7xaNiJAII/AAAAAAAALjU/eVsVfB-YV98/s400/05Fig3.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-2zGv_YvGmfQ/Tb7xW-33CSI/AAAAAAAALjM/HqkBbG-Ml78/s1600/06Fig4.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602180363632183586" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-2zGv_YvGmfQ/Tb7xW-33CSI/AAAAAAAALjM/HqkBbG-Ml78/s400/06Fig4.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ZNr3aJFBbUg/Tb7xTei48uI/AAAAAAAALjE/Yjpr3gW1rmQ/s1600/07Fig5.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602180303414686434" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ZNr3aJFBbUg/Tb7xTei48uI/AAAAAAAALjE/Yjpr3gW1rmQ/s400/07Fig5.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I followed the pattern instructions for all the construction process and the pants came out pretty much ok (there are a lot of different knee panels, so you better pay attention to which side of the panels is the right side before you stitch them together, lol. I had to use the seam ripper once because of lack of attention to this very important detail!). I have to say that the fly-front zipper method used in the instructions is not the best though. I’ve seen Vogue Designer patterns with much better finishing inside.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is it, I’m making the most out of a calm day to be able to post my April projects (I feel like I must be sitting on the “eye of the storm” though) and I have a couple more projects to show,…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Click &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/04/silver-and-green-prateado-e-verde.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; for pictures of me wearing the pants.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Couture et Tricot is licensed with a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs license&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1707374644461378032-1650489897489129341?l=tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/feeds/1650489897489129341/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1707374644461378032&amp;postID=1650489897489129341&amp;isPopup=true' title='9 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1707374644461378032/posts/default/1650489897489129341'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1707374644461378032/posts/default/1650489897489129341'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/05/20116-v2973-emerald-green-pants-calcas.html' title='2011#6 – &lt;em&gt;V2973 Emerald green pants&lt;/em&gt; – Calças verde esmeralda'/><author><name>Tany</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01073735708031525696</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://www.friendsofpr.com/tany/Blue_Goth_Girl.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YbAYrDtga8w/Tb7xpiVr1TI/AAAAAAAALj0/p8rJZANb650/s72-c/01Fig1.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>9</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1707374644461378032.post-7272155819978697036</id><published>2011-05-02T16:36:00.013+01:00</published><updated>2011-05-02T17:09:38.739+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='costura 2011 - 2011 Sewing Projects'/><title type='text'>2011#5 – Top Patrones300mod29: “Blusón Cortefiel”</title><content type='html'>&lt;b&gt;Português&lt;/b&gt;&lt;input value="ButtonPortuguese" onclick="portugueseexpandcollapse('Portuguese020511')" type="checkbox" checked=true&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffff33;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;em&gt;English (uncheck the other box and check this one)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;input value="ButtonEnglish" onclick="englishexpandcollapse('English020511')" type="checkbox"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postportugueseshow" id="Portuguese020511"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ca_M5dfvO30/Tb7QUDV_8ZI/AAAAAAAALi8/aQ4u3mApKf8/s1600/01Main.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602144029409014162" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ca_M5dfvO30/Tb7QUDV_8ZI/AAAAAAAALi8/aQ4u3mApKf8/s400/01Main.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fiz este top em meados de Abril, depois de uma fase em que não me apetecia costurar. A seguir a um projecto demorado e minucioso como o &lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/03/20114-burberry-inspired-coat-casaco.html"&gt;casaco inspirado em Burberry&lt;/a&gt;, precisei mesmo de tirar um tempo e, para voltar ao ritmo, nada melhor que uma série de projectos simples e rápidos.&lt;br /&gt;O modelo original é feito em seda e como podem ver na foto, fica um pouco “armado”:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RYC4yWVQiHo/Tb7QRpXJxxI/AAAAAAAALi0/Qmu4upDGkEQ/s1600/02Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602143988074792722" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RYC4yWVQiHo/Tb7QRpXJxxI/AAAAAAAALi0/Qmu4upDGkEQ/s400/02Fig1.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quando vi o modelo gostei do efeito do drapeado juntamente com as riscas e lembrei-me de um tecido de malha acetinada fininha às riscas que tinha guardado e que poderia resultar bem. O molde é fornecido nos tamanhos 40-44-48 (tamanhos Patrones, não correspondem aos tamanhos Burda) e o meu costuma ser o 42, mas uma vez que ia usar um tecido elástico, resolvi traçar o 40 e resultou bem. O modelo é muito simples, bastando ter alguma atenção à direcção das pregas marcada no molde (não são todas viradas na a mesma direcção, observem bem o ombro na foto do modelo). Para coser este modelo não usei a corta-e-cose: bastou o ponto próprio para tecidos elásticos (ziguezague estreito) da máquina. Para rematar as margens fiz um segundo pesponto a 5mm da costura e cortei rente. O tecido de Jersey não desfia e o acabamento fica bem, permitindo também poupar nas linhas de coser (para quem não sabe, a corta-e-cose gasta muito mais linha do que uma máquina de costura). As bainhas foram pespontadas com o ponto elástico e aparadas rente; as orlas do decote foram rematadas virando as margens duas vezes para dentro e pespontando. Já mostrarei alguns detalhes:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A bainha:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Tfut-mKcITU/Tb7QPVpya4I/AAAAAAAALis/_JhiobnUuBk/s1600/03Fig2.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602143948424506242" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Tfut-mKcITU/Tb7QPVpya4I/AAAAAAAALis/_JhiobnUuBk/s400/03Fig2.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YsDG6cKjD28/Tb7QI0rCVlI/AAAAAAAALik/j0It-hsRs6E/s1600/04Fig3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602143836492158546" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YsDG6cKjD28/Tb7QI0rCVlI/AAAAAAAALik/j0It-hsRs6E/s400/04Fig3.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Detalhe do remate das costuras:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-I5VW6ZldnCg/Tb7QE9PWwOI/AAAAAAAALic/bb1Z9los6QM/s1600/05Fig4.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602143770072498402" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-I5VW6ZldnCg/Tb7QE9PWwOI/AAAAAAAALic/bb1Z9los6QM/s400/05Fig4.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Remate do decote:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ebewTxs9Y4c/Tb7P-C2OTPI/AAAAAAAALiU/qRDCM7jp-3w/s1600/06Fig5.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602143651318615282" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ebewTxs9Y4c/Tb7P-C2OTPI/AAAAAAAALiU/qRDCM7jp-3w/s400/06Fig5.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mais algumas fotos (drapeado na frente e costas do top):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-j7qJ8P89PwE/Tb7P6zXUghI/AAAAAAAALiM/SeqW6AAiULY/s1600/07Fig6.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602143595622859282" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-j7qJ8P89PwE/Tb7P6zXUghI/AAAAAAAALiM/SeqW6AAiULY/s400/07Fig6.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DkcEgYeWnkA/Tb7P3Qmn6dI/AAAAAAAALiE/LxaKBdKIW6Q/s1600/08Fig7.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602143534752197074" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DkcEgYeWnkA/Tb7P3Qmn6dI/AAAAAAAALiE/LxaKBdKIW6Q/s400/08Fig7.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Conclusão:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Um top rápido e com um efeito muito interessante na frente, junta os tons azulão, vermelho e branco muito na moda. Gostei bastante do efeito da frente e da rapidez com que se constrói esta peça, tanto que fiz outro top, desta vez numa cor sólida, que mostrarei mais tarde. Espero que gostem, fiquem bem!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NOTA: Actualizarei esta entrada com uma ligação ao meu blogue de Estilo Pessoal assim que publicar um coordenado em que esteja a usar o top.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English020511"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ca_M5dfvO30/Tb7QUDV_8ZI/AAAAAAAALi8/aQ4u3mApKf8/s1600/01Main.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602144029409014162" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ca_M5dfvO30/Tb7QUDV_8ZI/AAAAAAAALi8/aQ4u3mApKf8/s400/01Main.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I made this top in mid April, following a no sewing period. After completing a time consuming project like &lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/03/20114-burberry-inspired-coat-casaco.html"&gt;the Burbery inspired coat&lt;/a&gt;, I needed a break from sewing. To get back on track nothing beats a series of quick&amp;amp;simple projects.&lt;br /&gt;The original top is made of lightweight silk woven and you can observe in the next picture that it has quite a bit of volume:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RYC4yWVQiHo/Tb7QRpXJxxI/AAAAAAAALi0/Qmu4upDGkEQ/s1600/02Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602143988074792722" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RYC4yWVQiHo/Tb7QRpXJxxI/AAAAAAAALi0/Qmu4upDGkEQ/s400/02Fig1.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I saw this model, liked the effect of the draping together with the stripes and I remembered I had some striped silk jersey that might work for this top. The pattern is featured in alternating sizes 40-44-48 (the Patrone’s sizing system is different from BurdaStyle) and I’m usually a 42, but since I was using jersey, I didn’t bother tracing the in-between size and traced the 40 straight out of the pattern sheet. The pattern is quite simple, you just have to pay attention to the marked pleat direction (the pleats aren’t all facing to the same side; observe the shoulder line on the magazine picture). I didn’t bother to use the serger for this model, just the special purpose stretch stitch on my regular sewing machine (it’s basically a narrow zigzag). To finish the SAs, I stitched a second row of narrow zigzag and trimmed close to the stitches. This jersey fabric doesn’t run and this kind of finishing saves thread (the serger is a thread hog, like most of you already know). The hem was topstitched and trimmed close to the zigzag stitches, and the neck finishing was made by turning in half the seam allowance and then turning in again, then topstitching.

I really loved how the top turned out and I also made another version using a solid colored jersey (I’ll publish it later). Hope you like this top too, happy sewing everybody!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NOTE: I’ll update with a link to my Personal Style blog as soon as I publish an outfit with this top.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Couture et Tricot is licensed with a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs license&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1707374644461378032-7272155819978697036?l=tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/feeds/7272155819978697036/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1707374644461378032&amp;postID=7272155819978697036&amp;isPopup=true' title='11 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1707374644461378032/posts/default/7272155819978697036'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1707374644461378032/posts/default/7272155819978697036'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/05/20115-top-patrones300mod29-bluson.html' title='2011#5 – Top Patrones300mod29: “Blusón Cortefiel”'/><author><name>Tany</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01073735708031525696</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://www.friendsofpr.com/tany/Blue_Goth_Girl.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ca_M5dfvO30/Tb7QUDV_8ZI/AAAAAAAALi8/aQ4u3mApKf8/s72-c/01Main.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>11</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1707374644461378032.post-9046669956359216596</id><published>2011-03-27T12:56:00.026+01:00</published><updated>2011-03-29T16:08:51.127+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Burberry inspired coat'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='costura 2011 - 2011 Sewing Projects'/><title type='text'>2011#4: The Burberry inspired coat – Casaco inspirado em Burberry</title><content type='html'>&lt;b&gt;Português&lt;/b&gt;&lt;input value="ButtonPortuguese" onclick="portugueseexpandcollapse('Portuguese270311')" type="checkbox" checked=true&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffff33;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;em&gt;English (uncheck the other box and check this one)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;input value="ButtonEnglish" onclick="englishexpandcollapse('English270311')" type="checkbox"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postportugueseshow" id="Portuguese270311"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-__ZcfQfjl5U/TY8noqz1k8I/AAAAAAAALfQ/rWe8YsGh0XY/s1600/01Main.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 356px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588729242230035394" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-__ZcfQfjl5U/TY8noqz1k8I/AAAAAAAALfQ/rWe8YsGh0XY/s400/01Main.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(podem ver mais fotos minhas a usar o casaco &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/03/my-burberry-inspired-coat-self-made-o.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Descrição:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Sobretudo forrado com saia separável (transforma-se num bolero), tem gola com bandas, dupla abotoadura na frente, presilhas nos ombros e atrás, bolsos de chapa com paleta e abertura nas mangas com zíper metálico.

Irei actualizar o índice de passo-a-passos com todos estes tutoriais e agora vou tirar um tempinho para arrumar a sala de costura, separar os tecidos para a primavera, visitar os vossos blogues (há algum tempo que não tenho tido tempo para o fazer) e sobretudo descansar, que bem preciso! Fiquem bem e obrigada pela vossa visita e o carinho com que sempre me brindam!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English270311"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-__ZcfQfjl5U/TY8noqz1k8I/AAAAAAAALfQ/rWe8YsGh0XY/s1600/01Main.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 356px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588729242230035394" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-__ZcfQfjl5U/TY8noqz1k8I/AAAAAAAALfQ/rWe8YsGh0XY/s400/01Main.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(There are more pictures of me wearing the coat &lt;a href="http://tanyetlamode.blogspot.com/2011/03/my-burberry-inspired-coat-self-made-o.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Description:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Overall double-breasted lined coat with separable skirt (it turns into a bolero without the skirt), has collar with lapels, shoulder and back tabs, patch pockets with flaps and sleeve vent with exposed zipper. The buttons are brushed metal and there is also a metal chain as hanging loop on the inside of the coat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;inspiration&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; for this coat came from the famous zipper waist Burberry coat: &lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-LwUpsmbSEBs/TY8nhyECcyI/AAAAAAAALfI/TbuyKq0adlM/s1600/02Inspiration.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; I believe I can consider this project as a success, the only bad thing is that since it’s already spring, the chances of me wearing the coat will be little, but there’s always next winter, right? Since my spare time is so little lately, the coat took more time to finish than I expected. Now that it’s finished, I’ll take some time off from sewing; I’ll gather my spring fabrics, I’ll clean up and organize my sewing room and also take some time to visit your blogs, since I haven’t been able to do so lately. Above all, I must take some rest, because I feel exhausted.

Entretanto prometi um artigo sobre o forro, e vou tentar explicar como se faz da melhor forma possível, espero que consigam entender o processo. A preparação do molde para cortar o forro consiste em retirar das peças da frente e das costas a largura das vistas, e depois acrescentar na orla resultante margens de costura (1,5cm). O comprimento do molde também é ajustado; na saia não vou deixar a prega de forro na bainha, pois como temos o fecho a separar a parte de cima da saia, esta folga não faz muito sentido. Assim temos que calcular o comprimento fazendo contas, não esquecendo de contar com as margens de costura necessárias, etc. As partes em forro são unidas entre si, obtendo a parte superior do corpo e a saia separada, tal como nas partes em tecido. Na parte de cima do forro as costas foram cortadas na dobra do tecido para formar uma prega, que podem ver alinhavada nas próximas fotos. O forro também deve ser reforçado com um pesponto a 1,3cm da orla na parte do decote, e depois é golpeado, para poder acomodar-se à forma redonda da vista quando se cose a esta:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-4YmhYMZsvZ0/TYiwTPWdqQI/AAAAAAAALbY/yYCFE07BHoQ/s1600/Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-4YmhYMZsvZ0/TYiwTPWdqQI/AAAAAAAALbY/yYCFE07BHoQ/s400/Fig1.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586909182337853698" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Yi9W6xkl3j4/TYiwPlxKnDI/AAAAAAAALbQ/pxAZ7iox07o/s1600/Fig2.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Yi9W6xkl3j4/TYiwPlxKnDI/AAAAAAAALbQ/pxAZ7iox07o/s400/Fig2.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586909119635954738" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As vistas também foram preparadas com a aplicação do vivo em cetim laranja, tal como explicado no tutorial do Paco (ver &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2007/12/manual-para-coser-un-vivo.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-XlAMPpzpT_8/TYiwL7mUgEI/AAAAAAAALbI/Z_4SQmbzqSo/s1600/Fig3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-XlAMPpzpT_8/TYiwL7mUgEI/AAAAAAAALbI/Z_4SQmbzqSo/s400/Fig3.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586909056776568898" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-FbwzWcbWU4A/TYiwH9frysI/AAAAAAAALbA/yhK5gkWb6qc/s1600/Fig4.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-FbwzWcbWU4A/TYiwH9frysI/AAAAAAAALbA/yhK5gkWb6qc/s400/Fig4.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908988566129346" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vou explicar como fiz a aplicação do forro na saia, uma vez que o canto de junção entre o forro, vista e bainha é o assunto que normalmente gera mais confusão. Neste outro artigo onde mostrei o molde do casaco (&lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/01/burberry-inspired-coat-slow-beginning.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;) já expliquei como preparei o molde para que todas as peças encaixassem entre si, assim como forneci hiperligações (“links”) para tutoriais que vos poderão ajudar a perceber melhor o que é preciso fazer, consultem-nos mesmo que não percebam Inglês, pois as imagens ajudam imenso.&lt;br /&gt;O primeiro passo foi coser o forro ao longo da bainha do casaco; vejam que o forro termina exactamente onde a bainha de 4cm termina, o restante da bainha vai ser cosida à vista e por isso só tem uma margem de 1,5cm:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Lyq1wcfAUZo/TYiwEbqxQAI/AAAAAAAALa4/1o1HEFhhIFQ/s1600/Fig5.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Lyq1wcfAUZo/TYiwEbqxQAI/AAAAAAAALa4/1o1HEFhhIFQ/s400/Fig5.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908927946211330" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Depois viram-se as vistas para fora, direito contra direito com a frente; lembram-se que expliquei que ao coser a vista à frente se terminava a costura no canto, sem coser até abaixo? Pois esse canto deve ser agora pespontado (ver próxima figura), por isso começa-se a coser um pouco antes do canto e depois gira-se no canto para completar a costura na bainha, unindo vista e frente em baixo:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ekk9l4uLbWg/TYiwAmBf9SI/AAAAAAAALaw/RiHRbO0CHj0/s1600/Fig6.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ekk9l4uLbWg/TYiwAmBf9SI/AAAAAAAALaw/RiHRbO0CHj0/s400/Fig6.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908862006424866" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Novamente não cosemos até ao fim; termina-se exactamente no ponto indicado pela seta vermelha:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Fnol8Hgiixg/TYiv9Jwwo2I/AAAAAAAALao/Cm4F-MF-9zs/s1600/Fig7.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Fnol8Hgiixg/TYiv9Jwwo2I/AAAAAAAALao/Cm4F-MF-9zs/s400/Fig7.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908802880414562" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No outro lado golpeia-se a bainha até esse canto (novamente indicado pela seta):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-w2J-OKEDlg0/TYiv5xxStlI/AAAAAAAALag/3DRvJkx_rCk/s1600/Fig8.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-w2J-OKEDlg0/TYiv5xxStlI/AAAAAAAALag/3DRvJkx_rCk/s400/Fig8.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908744900589138" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Agora vira-se a bainha para cima, direito contra direito e cose-se a costura vertical que inclui a junção da bainha com a vista e no seguimento, a junção do forro com a vista. Na foto vemos o início da costura em baixo. Cosi com o lado da vista virado para cima para poder guiar-me pelo pesponto do vivo e coser 2mm para dentro deste (a posição do pesponto do vivo é a 1,3cm da orla da vista e vamos coser agora a 1,5cm da orla):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-wpdpIi2vlcg/TYiv2w0qyBI/AAAAAAAALaY/kKel7mqzRkA/s1600/Fig9.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-wpdpIi2vlcg/TYiv2w0qyBI/AAAAAAAALaY/kKel7mqzRkA/s400/Fig9.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908693106706450" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do outro lado podem ver para que serviu o golpe que demos; se não tivéssemos golpeado não se conseguia virar a bainha para cima:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-lFuxalpruKQ/TYivzQSr0nI/AAAAAAAALaQ/yULh-hRD12w/s1600/Fig10.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-lFuxalpruKQ/TYivzQSr0nI/AAAAAAAALaQ/yULh-hRD12w/s400/Fig10.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908632834626162" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Voltando ao lado inicial (mostrado há duas fotos atrás), o canto da vista em baixo deve ser aparado (na figura estou a segurar o canto que recortei, para poderem ver melhor):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S55IogGBP2U/TYivvJwHRyI/AAAAAAAALaI/md52xVVVIHw/s1600/Fig11.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 309px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S55IogGBP2U/TYivvJwHRyI/AAAAAAAALaI/md52xVVVIHw/s400/Fig11.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908562359535394" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finalmente costumo golpear a vista junto ao fim da bainha, como indicado pela seta vermelha; assim posso abrir a ferro as margens da costura vertical junto à bainha, deixando as restantes margens da vista na direcção do forro:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-uOSrZ1fNWlQ/TYivr1nOpPI/AAAAAAAALaA/e1bzVwmaB0s/s1600/Fig12.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

num casaco inteiro teria de virar-se por uma abertura deixada no forro) e alinhava-se as bainhas como se pode ver a seguir:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9Y60wI0tm_s/TYivosU0hDI/AAAAAAAALZ4/C-lUfIWRJOE/s1600/Fig13.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vM-sGQRYbvI/TYivXwA6c8I/AAAAAAAALZY/LLCj_Z24Pdw/s400/Fig17.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908160313684930" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A saia fica assim forrada. A parte de cima é bastante mais fácil: cose-se o forro às vistas da frente e costas de uma só vez, sendo que a costura de baixo é fechada com pontos à mão, ao longo da fita do fecho. O forro nas mangas também é cosido à mão, pois temos que contornar o fecho. Na próxima foto vêem o forro seguro no lugar com alfinetes, pronto a ser cosido:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lt0EXVS468M/TYivQWjVvVI/AAAAAAAALZQ/FMZ2fvHA-L0/s1600/Fig18.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lt0EXVS468M/TYivQWjVvVI/AAAAAAAALZQ/FMZ2fvHA-L0/s400/Fig18.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908033219673426" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finalmente, o forro deve levar uns pontos no fundo das cavas e nos ombros, para ficar bem fixo ao casaco, sem se mover.&lt;br /&gt;E é tudo por hoje, no próximo artigo já mostrarei fotos do casaco terminado. Está a ser um trabalho demorado, e ainda mais pelo facto de estar a documentar os detalhes da confecção com tanto detalhe… Estou cansada e esgotada, vou ter de tirar um tempinho sem publicar tutoriais tão longos como estes, pois começo a ficar saturada e cada vez tenho menos tempo disponível. Fiquem bem e até à próxima…&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English220311"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qKiW1yoEurc/TU2TIcF2ECI/AAAAAAAALFw/m54JBjl25x8/s1600/Main.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 132px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5570270087316115490" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qKiW1yoEurc/TU2TIcF2ECI/AAAAAAAALFw/m54JBjl25x8/s200/Main.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Well, the coat isn’t finished yet, but all it takes to finish it is hand sewing the buttonholes. I need daylight to hand sew the tailor type buttonholes (even more when dealing with dark fabric and thread) and the only chance I’ll get to be able to finish it during this week is if I manage to get home early in the afternoon, which has been really difficult lately due to my current workload at the office. Most likely the finishing details will be postponed until the weekend, I’m afraid. In the meanwhile I promised an article about the lining construction, so here it is. I‘ll try to explain what I did the best I can, and I hope you’ll be able to get some sense out of it. Preparing the pattern to cut the lining is no big deal and I explained it several times; all there is to it is to take off the facings width (front and back) and add seam allowances along the newly obtained edges. The length of the pattern pieces should also be rectified, and it’s just a case of doing the math (if you like to add the "ease fold" along the hem – which I’m not making for this coat because it breakes at the waist – you’d probably just subtract the hem allowance and add regular SAs; since the lining hem will be sewn higher on the coat’s hem, this will form a nice fold along the hem. On the sleeves this fold should always be formed). The lining is sewn together pretty much as done for the coat, obtaining the upper lining and the lining skirt. There are some details like leaving a fold on the center back of the lining for ease of movement (it’s hand basted on the following pictures) and also staystitching/clipping around the neckline allowance because it will be sewn to the round back facing later.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-4YmhYMZsvZ0/TYiwTPWdqQI/AAAAAAAALbY/yYCFE07BHoQ/s1600/Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-4YmhYMZsvZ0/TYiwTPWdqQI/AAAAAAAALbY/yYCFE07BHoQ/s400/Fig1.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586909182337853698" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Yi9W6xkl3j4/TYiwPlxKnDI/AAAAAAAALbQ/pxAZ7iox07o/s1600/Fig2.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Yi9W6xkl3j4/TYiwPlxKnDI/AAAAAAAALbQ/pxAZ7iox07o/s400/Fig2.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586909119635954738" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also prepared the facings with orange satin bias tape, according to Paco’s tutorial (click &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2007/12/manual-para-coser-un-vivo.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-XlAMPpzpT_8/TYiwL7mUgEI/AAAAAAAALbI/Z_4SQmbzqSo/s1600/Fig3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-XlAMPpzpT_8/TYiwL7mUgEI/AAAAAAAALbI/Z_4SQmbzqSo/s400/Fig3.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586909056776568898" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-FbwzWcbWU4A/TYiwH9frysI/AAAAAAAALbA/yhK5gkWb6qc/s1600/Fig4.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-FbwzWcbWU4A/TYiwH9frysI/AAAAAAAALbA/yhK5gkWb6qc/s400/Fig4.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908988566129346" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I’ll try to explain with some detail the way I did the bottom facing/lining/hem corner junction, since this is what most people find confusing and hard to understand. In my previous article on the pattern construction (click &lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/01/burberry-inspired-coat-slow-beginning.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;) I’ve already explained how the pattern should be drafted so all the pieces (lining, facings and shell) would fit together in the end; I also provided some links to tutorials that you should really take a look, to be able to fully understand this process. The images in these tutorials are most self-explanatory.&lt;br /&gt;The first step was sewing the lining bottom edge to the coat’s hem allowance (right sides facing, of course). If all the pattern pieces were drafted correctly, the bottom edge of the lining should match the coat’s wider hem allowance edge exactly:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Lyq1wcfAUZo/TYiwEbqxQAI/AAAAAAAALa4/1o1HEFhhIFQ/s1600/Fig5.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Lyq1wcfAUZo/TYiwEbqxQAI/AAAAAAAALa4/1o1HEFhhIFQ/s400/Fig5.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908927946211330" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then turn the facings outwards (right side of the facings facing the right side of the coat’s front); remember when I told you to stop the front/facing vertical edge stitching seam right at the corner, not stitching all the way down? This corner should be stitched now, starting along the vertical stitching, and turning along the facings/front bottom edge:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ekk9l4uLbWg/TYiwAmBf9SI/AAAAAAAALaw/RiHRbO0CHj0/s1600/Fig6.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ekk9l4uLbWg/TYiwAmBf9SI/AAAAAAAALaw/RiHRbO0CHj0/s400/Fig6.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908862006424866" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Again, don’t stitch all the way to the end; finish your stitching at the point indicated by the red arrow in the next picture:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Fnol8Hgiixg/TYiv9Jwwo2I/AAAAAAAALao/Cm4F-MF-9zs/s1600/Fig7.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Fnol8Hgiixg/TYiv9Jwwo2I/AAAAAAAALao/Cm4F-MF-9zs/s400/Fig7.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908802880414562" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the opposing side, clip the allowance right to the corner (again the same corner is signaled by a red arrow):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-w2J-OKEDlg0/TYiv5xxStlI/AAAAAAAALag/3DRvJkx_rCk/s1600/Fig8.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-w2J-OKEDlg0/TYiv5xxStlI/AAAAAAAALag/3DRvJkx_rCk/s400/Fig8.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908744900589138" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now turn the hem “allowance/lining” up (right sides facing) and stitch the vertical seam that joins the allowance and the lining to the front facing. In the picture you see the beginning of this seam pinned. I stitch with the facing side up so I can use the trim stitching as a guide, stitching a scant left from the stitching line:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-wpdpIi2vlcg/TYiv2w0qyBI/AAAAAAAALaY/kKel7mqzRkA/s1600/Fig9.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-wpdpIi2vlcg/TYiv2w0qyBI/AAAAAAAALaY/kKel7mqzRkA/s400/Fig9.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908693106706450" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the opposite side you see why I had to clip the corner; without the clipping the hem allowance wouldn’t turn up from the corner:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-lFuxalpruKQ/TYivzQSr0nI/AAAAAAAALaQ/yULh-hRD12w/s1600/Fig10.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-lFuxalpruKQ/TYivzQSr0nI/AAAAAAAALaQ/yULh-hRD12w/s400/Fig10.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908632834626162" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Again on the other side (the side seen on the picture previous the last one shown), the facing bottom corner should be trimmed as shown next (I’m actually holding the piece that I’ve trimmed off):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S55IogGBP2U/TYivvJwHRyI/AAAAAAAALaI/md52xVVVIHw/s1600/Fig11.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 309px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S55IogGBP2U/TYivvJwHRyI/AAAAAAAALaI/md52xVVVIHw/s400/Fig11.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908562359535394" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally I clip the facing right next to the hem edge, so I can press the vertical seam open just from the hem down to the bottom edge of the coat. This will reduce bulk in this area. The remaining facing allowance remains facing the lining:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-uOSrZ1fNWlQ/TYivr1nOpPI/AAAAAAAALaA/e1bzVwmaB0s/s1600/Fig12.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 310px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-uOSrZ1fNWlQ/TYivr1nOpPI/AAAAAAAALaA/e1bzVwmaB0s/s400/Fig12.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908505413952754" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Turn everything to the right side (you can do this because the lining upper edge isn’t stitched to the zipper tape yet; when lining a “normal” coat or jacket, you’ll have to turn the coat/lining to the right side through an unstitched seam section in the lining, for example leave a 5inch section unstitched along one of the lining sleeve seams). Hand baste the coat hem in place:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9Y60wI0tm_s/TYivosU0hDI/AAAAAAAALZ4/C-lUfIWRJOE/s1600/Fig13.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9Y60wI0tm_s/TYivosU0hDI/AAAAAAAALZ4/C-lUfIWRJOE/s400/Fig13.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908451381216306" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With everything basted and secured you can give it a press. Use silk thread if your fabric gets imprints from the regular basting thread:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MYqFU_XAaNI/TYivlGFt50I/AAAAAAAALZw/cfKqLclR04M/s1600/Fig14.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MYqFU_XAaNI/TYivlGFt50I/AAAAAAAALZw/cfKqLclR04M/s400/Fig14.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908389577713474" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-N0QFSZjnJNY/TYivhPziWQI/AAAAAAAALZo/Km-Tj8MSfqA/s1600/Fig15.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-N0QFSZjnJNY/TYivhPziWQI/AAAAAAAALZo/Km-Tj8MSfqA/s400/Fig15.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908323466336514" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Turn the coat to the wrong side again and hand stitch the hem permanently:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-XTRwc1taTkE/TYivcxXz3NI/AAAAAAAALZg/4Gmwt6bW1e8/s1600/Fig16.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-XTRwc1taTkE/TYivcxXz3NI/AAAAAAAALZg/4Gmwt6bW1e8/s400/Fig16.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908246577503442" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Turn the coat (skirt) to the right side (this is the final turn, lol) and finish the upper edge of the lining turning in its upper allowance and hand stitching it to the zipper tape. Before closing the lining I applied a back tab which hides the zippers starts, as you can see: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vM-sGQRYbvI/TYivXwA6c8I/AAAAAAAALZY/LLCj_Z24Pdw/s1600/Fig17.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vM-sGQRYbvI/TYivXwA6c8I/AAAAAAAALZY/LLCj_Z24Pdw/s400/Fig17.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908160313684930" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The skirt of the coat is therefore lined. The upper lining is much easier in this case: I stitched it to the facings on a single step, turned in the bottom allowance and hand stitched it to the zipper tape. The lining sleeves were also finished by hand, along the hem allowance and around the zippers. Next picture shows how I pinned everything in place before hand stitching:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lt0EXVS468M/TYivQWjVvVI/AAAAAAAALZQ/FMZ2fvHA-L0/s1600/Fig18.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lt0EXVS468M/TYivQWjVvVI/AAAAAAAALZQ/FMZ2fvHA-L0/s400/Fig18.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586908033219673426" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The final step is hand-tacking the lining to the coat along the bottom of the armholes and along the shoulder seams, preventing the lining from shifting out of place. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Phew, this is all! The next article will show the finished coat. The coat is taking forever to complete and even more because I've documented most of the process… I feel exhausted, drained out. I must take some time off from “tutorialing”, really. See you guys next time…&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Couture et Tricot is licensed with a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs license&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1707374644461378032-5461997671700630535?l=tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/feeds/5461997671700630535/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1707374644461378032&amp;postID=5461997671700630535&amp;isPopup=true' title='18 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1707374644461378032/posts/default/5461997671700630535'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1707374644461378032/posts/default/5461997671700630535'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/2011/03/sewing-lining-coser-o-forro-do-casaco.html' title='&lt;em&gt;Sewing the lining&lt;/em&gt; – Coser o forro do casaco'/><author><name>Tany</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01073735708031525696</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://www.friendsofpr.com/tany/Blue_Goth_Girl.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qKiW1yoEurc/TU2TIcF2ECI/AAAAAAAALFw/m54JBjl25x8/s72-c/Main.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>18</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1707374644461378032.post-49680160812040834</id><published>2011-03-15T10:51:00.008Z</published><updated>2011-03-15T11:31:41.299Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Burberry inspired coat'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='costura - sewing'/><title type='text'>Not quite finished yet – Ainda não está terminado</title><content type='html'>&lt;b&gt;Português&lt;/b&gt;&lt;input value="ButtonPortuguese" onclick="portugueseexpandcollapse('Portuguese150311')" type="checkbox" checked=true&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffff33;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;em&gt;English (uncheck the other box and check this one)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;input value="ButtonEnglish" onclick="englishexpandcollapse('English150311')" type="checkbox"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postportugueseshow" id="Portuguese150311"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qKiW1yoEurc/TU2TIcF2ECI/AAAAAAAALFw/m54JBjl25x8/s1600/Main.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 132px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5570270087316115490" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qKiW1yoEurc/TU2TIcF2ECI/AAAAAAAALFw/m54JBjl25x8/s200/Main.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Mas entretanto aqui fica o que consegui fazer durante o fim-de-semana passado, que basicamente foi terminar a saia do casaco, à excepção do forro. Basicamente o que fiz foi entretelar as bainhas, as vistas, depois unir tudo, aplicar um reforço de entretela no avesso, no lugar da aplicação da paleta e entrada do bolso, confeccionar as paletas e os bolsos (ambos forrados, no artigo final mostrarei com mais detalhe), coser a saia aos fechos metálicos (aqui é importante primeiro dobrar para dentro, alinhavar e assentar a ferro os valores de costura da orla superior da saia, incluindo vistas; depois fixar com alfinetes no fecho COM O FECHO FECHADO na parte superior do casaco, para alinhar todas as costuras com a parte superior, para ficar tudo certinho; só depois se separam os fechos, alinhava-se a orla ao fecho e cose-se com um pesponto duplo). A seguir, fecha-se o fecho juntando a saia ao casaco e prova-se a melhor posição dos bolsos, fixando-os com alfinetes; retira-se novamente a saia, alinhavam-se os bolsos no lugar, cosem-se com um pesponto duplo; as paletas são aplicadas por cima dos bolsos de chapa (fixam-se com alfinetes viradas para cima, cosem-se com um pesponto, assentam-se para baixo e pespontam-se ao longo da orla superior). A saia fica assim completa, mas a vista ainda não fica virada para o interior (apenas quando aplicar o forro). A seguir vou mostrar algumas fotos com detalhes importantes deste processo:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Detalhe da entretela na bainha do casaco; podem ver também a vista, que foi entretelada com uma entretela diferente e também a orla da frente da vista foi reforçada com fita beta (a tira branca que se vê ao longo da costura). É importante separar a ferro as margens de união da vista com a frente e escalar essas margens (cortar as margens da vista para ficarem com um tamanho menor):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5OWhaHsrRYM/TX9FSP70eRI/AAAAAAAALXw/mSzbCKqcyP8/s1600/Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584258242780100882" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5OWhaHsrRYM/TX9FSP70eRI/AAAAAAAALXw/mSzbCKqcyP8/s400/Fig1.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Neste casaco a vista é uma peça à parte; ao coser a vista à frente termina-se no canto (não se cose até abaixo), ver a seta vermelha; reparem também na fita beta de reforço e também como as margens estão escaladas:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zunGaQbkFsc/TX9FPDd6eQI/AAAAAAAALXo/aXuz1sNBmkY/s1600/Fig2.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584258187893831938" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zunGaQbkFsc/TX9FPDd6eQI/AAAAAAAALXo/aXuz1sNBmkY/s400/Fig2.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A próxima foto mostra um bolso terminado, aplicado na lateral da saia do casaco:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BVWr5c1sxuA/TX9FLyZCAsI/AAAAAAAALXg/pVhjZrMQ5X8/s1600/Fig3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584258131770344130" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BVWr5c1sxuA/TX9FLyZCAsI/AAAAAAAALXg/pVhjZrMQ5X8/s400/Fig3.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;E aqui podem ver no avesso, o reforço de entretela que colei no lugar da entrada do bolso e de aplicação da paleta:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-B0Vi1eSw1Ls/TX9FIJCFMGI/AAAAAAAALXY/DgmdHiw6zA4/s1600/Fig4.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584258069128622178" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-B0Vi1eSw1Ls/TX9FIJCFMGI/AAAAAAAALXY/DgmdHiw6zA4/s400/Fig4.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O final do fecho está posicionado um pouco antes da junção da vista (ver seta vermelha):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S3zdd2ayBuA/TX9FD8fdDjI/AAAAAAAALXQ/HN2ahZ2hJ5o/s1600/Fig5.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584257997042683442" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S3zdd2ayBuA/TX9FD8fdDjI/AAAAAAAALXQ/HN2ahZ2hJ5o/s400/Fig5.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A seguir terei de confeccionar o forro e fazer o tratamento das vistas com a aplicação do forro. Vou aplicar um vivo laranja na costura das vistas com o forro, como explicado neste &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2007/12/manual-para-coser-un-vivo.html"&gt;tutorial do Paco (com vídeo incluído)&lt;/a&gt;. O último passo é confeccionar as casas e coser os botões. Quanto às casas, vou fazê-las à mão ao estilo Alfaiate, seguindo um tutorial também do Paco que podem consultar &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2009/01/ojales-de-sastre.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Por último peço desculpa pois não tenho mesmo podido retribuir os vossos comentários e visitar os vossos blogues… Não imaginam como tem sido a minha vida e tem sido um esforço muito grande escrever estes artigos descrevendo o processo de confecção deste casaco. Um grande abraço e os meus sinceros agradecimentos a quem passa por aqui e toma o seu tempo para deixar uma palavra de apreço. Beijinhos!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="postenglishhide" id="English150311"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qKiW1yoEurc/TU2TIcF2ECI/AAAAAAAALFw/m54JBjl25x8/s1600/Main.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 132px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5570270087316115490" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qKiW1yoEurc/TU2TIcF2ECI/AAAAAAAALFw/m54JBjl25x8/s200/Main.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;This is the description of my progress during last weekend: basically I was able to finish the skirt of the coat, except for the lining. First I interfaced the hem allowances on all pieces, interfaced the facings reinforcing the front edge with fusible tape and then I sewed all the pieces together. I also interfaced the area where the pocket opening/flap will be fused later. I also made the pockets and the flaps at this point (both are lined, I will show the details in my final review). Before attaching the skirt to the zippers, I turned in the upper edge allowance (including the facings) and basted/pressed; the zipper should remain closed at the upper body of the coat while pinning the skirt to the bottom zipper tape, so all the vertical seams are properly aligned. Then I opened the zippers, separating the skirt from the coat, hand basted the skirt to the zipper tape removing the pins and topstitched (two rows of topstitching, actually). I attached the skirt to the coat again and I was able to determine the pocket’s placement position, pinning them in place; again I removed the skirt from the upper body and machine stitched the pockets in place (double topstitching again). Then I stitched the flaps in place (first pointing upwards with the wrong side facing up, stitched along the placement line, then pressed them down and double topstitched along the upper edge, hiding the upper allowance underneath the double topstitching). The skirt is now completed but the facings are still opened to the outside (they will be turned in place once the lining is applied). Next I will show you some pictures, highlighting some important aspects:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the interfacing along the hem allowance; you can also see the facing, interfaced with a slightly different fusible interfacing and with its front edge reinforced with fusible tape (it’s the white tape hiding behind the edge allowances). It’s important to press the allowances open and also to scale them (cut the facing allowance a bit narrower):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5OWhaHsrRYM/TX9FSP70eRI/AAAAAAAALXw/mSzbCKqcyP8/s1600/Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584258242780100882" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5OWhaHsrRYM/TX9FSP70eRI/AAAAAAAALXw/mSzbCKqcyP8/s400/Fig1.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In this case the facing is a separate piece from the front; I ended the junction stitching right at what will be the front bottom corner (see the red arrow in the Picture). Here you can also observe the reinforcing fusible tape up close and the allowances scaling:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zunGaQbkFsc/TX9FPDd6eQI/AAAAAAAALXo/aXuz1sNBmkY/s1600/Fig2.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584258187893831938" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zunGaQbkFsc/TX9FPDd6eQI/AAAAAAAALXo/aXuz1sNBmkY/s400/Fig2.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The next picture shows the completed patch pocket with a flap, on the side of the coat’s skirt:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BVWr5c1sxuA/TX9FLyZCAsI/AAAAAAAALXg/pVhjZrMQ5X8/s1600/Fig3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584258131770344130" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BVWr5c1sxuA/TX9FLyZCAsI/AAAAAAAALXg/pVhjZrMQ5X8/s400/Fig3.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And here’s the wrong side, reinforced with fusible interfacing as explained above:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-B0Vi1eSw1Ls/TX9FIJCFMGI/AAAAAAAALXY/DgmdHiw6zA4/s1600/Fig4.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584258069128622178" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-B0Vi1eSw1Ls/TX9FIJCFMGI/AAAAAAAALXY/DgmdHiw6zA4/s400/Fig4.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here you can see where the zipper stops are placed, close to the facing junction seam:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S3zdd2ayBuA/TX9FD8fdDjI/AAAAAAAALXQ/HN2ahZ2hJ5o/s1600/Fig5.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584257997042683442" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S3zdd2ayBuA/TX9FD8fdDjI/AAAAAAAALXQ/HN2ahZ2hJ5o/s400/Fig5.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next I’ll sew the lining parts together and will treat the facings with a bias tape trim, as explained in &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2007/12/manual-para-coser-un-vivo.html"&gt;this tutorial by Paco Peralta (it includes a video!)&lt;/a&gt;, before attaching the lining to the coat upper and lower parts. The last step will be to make the buttonholes by hand (I’ll be using another of Paco’s tutorials for this, check it out &lt;a href="http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2009/01/ojales-de-sastre.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;) and sew the buttons in place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I apologize for not being able to reply to all the comments and for not being able to visit your blogs lately; I am really overloaded with work and I’m writing these progress report posts with great personal sacrifice. I leave you with a huge hug and thank you all of for visiting and taking some of your time to leave a comment.

Além disso estou mesmo com pouco tempo disponível; no trabalho acabaram de me atribuir outro cliente, ou seja, trabalho quase em dobro… Não sei como vou fazer, mas provavelmente não vou publicar tantos tutoriais, limitando-me a publicar as peças prontas endereçando apenas alguns aspectos específicos do seu acabamento. Não sei se repararam mas acrescentei um &lt;a href="http://tanysewsandknits.blogspot.com/p/indice-de-passo-passos-portugues.html"&gt;índice de passo-a-passos&lt;/a&gt; debaixo do cabeçalho do blogue para facilitar a procura de tutoriais específicos e evitar repetir a mesma informação vezes sem conta. Quanto a este casaco, além do artigo de hoje publicarei um outro a respeito da colocação do forro (que é bastante trivial e não vai acrescentar muito mais a outros tutoriais já publicados a respeito do mesmo assunto) e um artigo final apresentando o casaco pronto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Já publiquei bastante informação acerca da colocação das mangas; o tutorial mais completo sobre este assunto está referenciado no Índice, na letra M (Mangas: Coser as mangas num casaco). Vou apenas mostrar algumas fotos do processo e salientar um ou outro ponto importante. Por exemplo, gosto de coser a cava do lado do casaco e não do lado da manga, pois acredito que é uma forma mais precisa de coser a cava (leiam a explicação no tutorial que mencionei acima):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3naAa0P4uuw/TXEgwcg4UgI/AAAAAAAALVo/yRRZTBsvJB8/s1600/Fig1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5580277429948666370" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3naAa0P4uuw/TXEgwcg4UgI/AAAAAAAALVo/yRRZTBsvJB8/s400/Fig1.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Para acolchoar ligeiramente a cabeça da manga, apliquei um retalho de tecido fofo em forma de “bigode” (&lt;a href="http://thesewingdivas.wordpress.com/2008/10/09/sleeve-heads/"&gt;Moustache sleeveheads&lt;/a&gt;) antes de colocar o chumaço (também podem usar espuma de acolchoar, por exemplo, ou um retalho de feltro mole):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-KRAd1hnughc/TXEgtrqF9pI/AAAAAAAALVg/8dfnqPSctRI/s1600/Fig2.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5580277382474233490" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-KRAd1hnughc/TXEgtrqF
