Enquanto escrevo o último passo-a-passo das calças, achei que gostariam de ver o que terminei entretanto:
While I'm still working on the last tutorial on the pinstriped wide trousers, I want to show you my latest completed garment:
While I'm still working on the last tutorial on the pinstriped wide trousers, I want to show you my latest completed garment:
The original model is from the September BWOF magazine, model 101B, and I used a very thin stretch satin to make it:
A few interesting details:
O detalhe do decote por baixo do laço:
The collar detail underneath the ties:

The hem (folded twice and topstitched using the stretch stitch):

The tie-on collar, sewn by hand on the inside:


Conclusion: An easy, quick and interesting project in a very trendy color! I pre-washed the fabric on a gentle cycle (it shrank a little) and left it to dry at my balcony (in the shadow). I used very thin silk pins to avoid leaving piercing marks on the fabric and a size 60 machine needle. To stitch by hand I used an extra thin beading needle. I'm extremely pleased with the end result and I may sew another blouse (to match the necklace I got from Laura) if I find stretch satin in coral!
