Breaking the Pattern: A modern way to sew

Product Information

This is not the actual number of garments you can make with the patterns from this book since you can further mix and match the details between the options presented in the book. I didn't do the best job with pattern matching - I was so focused on not having floral boobs that I didn't pay much attention to how the centre front was coming together, so there are some odd chunks of cut-off design that it would look better without. The Finnish sewing duo behind the dressmaking fashion label Named Clothing, Laura and Saara Huhta offer up an enticing selection of tops, dresses, skirts, and trousers for the modern seamstress. I ended up packing a nearly all handmade wardrobe for that trip (including garments made last year that I need to blog still) and I think only a couple of ready-to-wear items.

Breaking the Pattern will help you gradually improve your expertise throughout the book, with new techniques introduced project by project – from tote to coat. I made the Saraste shirt dress a few weeks ago using some Liberty of London cotton lawn, but I didn’t really feel I could pull off the button-up collar look. It fit quite well after this adjustment so I was surprised that was all that was required, especially after that long time out.S! If you like to get your blog hits through Bloglovin’, feel free to follow me over there: you can find me here. The fact that the key for the sizes are not marked on the sheets themselves but only in the book can also be a bit annoying.

I feel that it has opened the door to create not only well contructed garments but beautiful ones too. Per ogni modello ci sono i consigli anche per il tipo di stoffa da usare, e inoltre ci sono molti trucchetti per la confezione. Again, normally I think that no matter what stage you are at, you can give anything a try, so long as you are determined and know where to find help. Sew your own capsule wardrobe offers a modern approach to dressmaking, celebrating clothes that truly fit your shape. Does your relationship, job, or diet always begin full of hope, but, somehow, fail to work out in the end?Improve your sewing expertise as you work through the book – with new techniques introduced project-by-project – and use the six essential building blocks to choose, customise and adapt the designs to create a variety of beautiful clothes to fit your figure. First of all, I added 2 pockets, one zippered pocket on the outside of the bag, and a patch pocket on the inside. It was a bit of a slippery beast to work with and didn't like being overhandled - the points where I've turned through my corners are looking a bit chewed up and my band collar isn't the neatest on the inside!
