EN Summary: Tailoring is definitely my favorite sewing expertise and I believe I achieved a match made in heaven with this wool tweed and the blazer pattern from DP Studio! Keep reading to find out all the details!

PT Sumário: A alfaiataria é definitivamente a área da costura que mais me atrai e acredito que consegui a combinação perfeita com esta fazenda de lã e o molde de blazer DP Studio! Continuem a ler para descobrirem todos os detalhes!
EN: The pattern used is DP Studio Le100 (get the printed version here and/or the pdf version here), described as a classic one-button waisted blazer with side panels, flap pockets, double back vents, two-piece sleeves with buttoned vents and original notched collar/lapel design. I've sewn this pattern before in denim (the related blog posts are: "Front and side panels", "Flap pocket step-by-step", "Assembling the back (how to sew the back vents)", "Notched collar and sleeve vents" and "Wearing the blazer").
This time around I cut size 42 without any alterations (when I first purchased this pattern years ago there was a small error that I've corrected; I ended up purchasing the pattern a second time and the error has been corrected).

PT: O molde é o Le100 de DP Studio (podem comprar o molde impresso aqui ou então a versão em pdf aqui), descrito como blazer clássico de um botão e painéis laterais, bolsos com paleta, duas aberturas atrás, mangas de duas folhas com aberturas abotoadas e gola/lapelas com formato original. Já tinha usado este molde para confecionar um blazer de ganga (os posts relativos a esse blazer são: "Frente e painéis laterais", "Passo-a-passo dos bolsos com paleta", "Confeção das costas (como fazer as aberturas)", "Gola de alfaiate e aberturas das mangas" e "A usar o blazer").
Desta vez cortei o tamanho 42 sem alterações (quando comprei este molde há anos atrás, havia um pequeno erro no painel lateral; mais tarde voltei a comprar o molde e o erro já veio corrigido).
EN: The fabric used is a high quality medium weight 100% wool tweed, purchased from DP Studio a couple of years ago. It's a houndstooth pattern in yellow, black and grey colors and I am absolutely amazed with how well it behaved along the sewing/pressing process; there was no residual shrinkage at all and it pressed beautifully.

PT: O tecido é uma fazenda 100% lã de peso médio e alta qualidade, comprada também de DP Studio há alguns anos. Tem um padrão pied-de-poule em tons de amarelo, preto e cinza. Foi muito fácil de trabalhar, cose-se e assenta-se a ferro muito bem, sem encolhimento residual.

PT: As fotos seguintes mostram alguns detalhes que merecem ser destacados, como as pontas da gola inclinadas para cima:

EN: It took me a couple of weeks to finish this project (working mainly on weekends) but it was well worth the time invested, in my opinion, and I can't wait to wear the blazer to the office!
Thank you all for reading and supporting my blog! Happy Sewing!

PT: Ainda demorei algumas semanas neste projeto (praticamente só tenho tempo durante os fins de semana) mas na minha opinião valeu bem a pena! Mal posso esperar para estrear este blazer!
Obrigada a todos por aparecerem e apoiarem este blogue! Até à próxima e boas costuras!

Beautiful job as always. I've been enjoying going through all of your past blog posts for sewing inspiration.
Are you still blogging? I miss your blogs, I learn so much and you are so talented. Are you alright? I hope your health is good
Hi Anascana, everything is fine, I just haven't been sewing.... I'll be back on it as soon as I get my sewing mojo back. Thank you so much for caring ❤️😘😘😘
Tany, I totally understand about getting your sewjo back. I, too, just started sewing again after a break. Sometimes we just need that but I’m very glad you are ok.
Thank you <3
