Sem escrever por uns tempos… - Not blogging for a while...

Português
English (uncheck the other box and check this one)
Desta vez a vida meteu-se mesmo no caminho e não vou conseguir manter o blog actualizado assim como comentar nos vossos blogs (vou espreitando sempre que possa, mas sem deixar comentários). O que acontece é que estou no processo de comprar casa nova, e as de vocês que já estiveram nessa situação sabem o tempo que se perde a tratar de tudo. Entretanto, antes de me despedir por uns tempos, aqui estão as fotos possíveis do fato bege (não pude perder grande tempo em sessões fotográficas, limitei-me a fotografar as peças como as usei nesses dias):

Colete e calças:

Detalhe do bolso atrás:

Blazer e colete usados com Levi’s:

O tecido veio com uma etiqueta de origem, que acrescentei ao lado da minha:

Mais algumas fotos do blazer no manequim:



Espero que tenham gostado desta aventura! Escrever no Couture et Tricot foi sempre um grande prazer para mim e permitiu-me conhecer muita gente maravilhosa e evoluir os meus conhecimentos sobre costura. Sempre tive muito carinho de toda a comunidade online e creio que deixo bastante material que pode ser consultado e apreciado durante esta pausa prolongada (prometo voltar quando as coisas assentarem).

Um grande abraço a todos(as), fiquem bem!

Tany

This time life definitely got in the way and I won’t be capable of maintaining my blogging activity for a while. I’ll try to keep up with everybody else’s work as possible, but I’ll be lurking and not commenting. I’m in the process of buying a new house (yes, I’m counting on a dedicated sewing space!) and those of you who went through this process know how time consuming it becomes.
Before leaving I have some pictures of the beige suit to share (these were taken as I wore the garments to work, there wasn’t time for a proper photo shoot):

The vest and pants worn with a short sleeve blouse:

Back pocket detail:

Jacket and vest worn with Levi’s jeans:

Here’s the fabric’s origin label next to may own:

A few more pictures of the jacket on the dressform:



I hope you’ve enjoyed this sewing adventure! Maintaining Couture et Tricot has always been a great pleasure for me and through blogging I was able to meet many wonderful people, to evolve my sewing skills and achieve great fulfillment. While I’m gone, all the articles are available for consult and I think there’s enough material to continue inspiring and helping those who strive for sewing information. I’ll never forget you guys and promise to return to normal blogging activity as soon as possible.

A big Hug to all,

Tany

  15. Tany, já estou a sentir a tua falta! Nem posso acreditar que não vais andar por aqui nos próximos tempos. Acho que já sentimos todos a tua falta... Se passares pelos nossos cantinhos peço-te que deixes, de vez em quando, uma palavrinha que seja, será uma forma de sabermos que estás por perto.
    Compreendo perfeitamente que o teu tempo disponível agora esteja comprometido. Deve ser uma grande aventura a procura de uma casa e tudo o que envolve. Só me resta desejar, sinceramente, que corra tudo pelo melhor e que encontres aquilo que procuras. Depois terás tempo de voltar a estas lides (e espaço para ocupares com mais criações). Fico à espera de ver imagens do teu novo quarto de costura ;)
    Beijinhos,

  43. How exciting to be buying a house, especially one with dedicated sewing space. Packing for your move, from your present home to your new house, will reveal how much sewing "stuff" you really have. I remember being surprised at how much fabric I had to pack and move. I really like the beige suit pieces. They can be combined with so many other garments, as you show in your photos. I especially like those snakeskin sandals!

    ReplyDelete
  44. Beautiful suit, Tany! It's very versatile! Best of luck to you in purchasing a new home with a dedicated sewing room. How exciting!! :)

    O casaco foi daquela peças que me chamou a atenção. Agora, depois de ver a tua versão, ainda fiquei com mais vontade de fazer um para mim. Quem sabe?

    Desejo-te as maiores felicidades na procura da nova casa. E... espero notícias!

  50. Hey Tany,

    The perfect reason to take a break from the blog. I hope you have great success with the house and the sewing - you really do have some wonderful work here that I have yet to read and enjoy, so thanks for all the work you've put online, it's appreciated by so many!

    eu não sou uma habituada dos posts ... bem queria ... eu sei como é difícil a nível de tempo ... passa passa e não damos por isso ...
    Boa sorte na compra da casa espero que encontres aquela dos teus sonhos.
    Aproveita esse tempo para também descansares pois bem mereces.
    O conjunto ficou mesmo lindo e perfeito mas nada que não seja habitual da tua parte.

  60. Good luck with your house search. I hope it goes easily and that you get the sewing space you deserve.

    Your blogging will be missed, but while you're away, I may go back to the beginning and start reading all over again, I'm sure I missed a few things worth learning.

    Your suit turned out beautifully, by the way. I really love how the jacket and vest look with jeans, it's wonderful that you can dress it up or down like that.

  62. Congratulations on your home acquisition. Exciting, yet stressful.

    You provide so much information on this blog, (blogging is so time consuming) it is like reviewing an encyclopedia.....this blog reader can't thank you enough.

    I look forward to going back and reading older posts and seeing pics of your new home, when you get settled in, of course.

    Good luck,

  64. Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

    Só hoje consegui deixar comentários, mas já cá tinha vindo e fiquei triste ao saber que vais estar afastada do teu blog por uns tempos...

    ...mas como eu te compreendo! Eu própria estou a ter grande dificuldade de manter o meu blog actualizado devido ao meu trabalho...n tenho tempo nem paciencia para nada.


    Bem, espero que consigas organizar-te e voltares renovada!!!

    (ahhh também quero ver as fotos da nova casa!)

    Beijinho grandes e cá estarei para assistir ao teu regresso e aos teus projectos.

  65. Hi Tany, although I have been never commenting here before, I´d like to thank you for your inspiring blog. I like to watch what were you working on and the helpfull step-by-step´s. I was an active "hobbysewer" too (and paused because of minority of time)and you encouraged me to refresh this activity. Good luck in buying your house and enjoy the other nicer activities as furnishing, decorating etc. Kaatja

    Você esteve conosco todos os fãs de tantos, a sua prova. Basta, para gerir os recursos financeiros e de negócios (certamente não simples), mas obviamente você tem as ferramentas.
    Boa sorte
