It feels "right" when it's on, not too big....hope that makes sense? Mine is made in quite a thickish, fleece. I think it would look a bit different if you used a thinner fabric 😘

    I 'watched' and commented on the first version uploaded, but have enjoyed this one much more 😂 To repeat myself, I love the red buttons, and all your makes. With the bag, you folded the strap in on itself, is there any way it would work to do that and top stitch close to the edge? it would form a sort of pleat at each end? On the patina it's more work but I think cutting the sleeves off and reducing the armhole and sides would probably be best. Love your hair, and glad you're recovering from your fall. x

    Perfect pattern matching on your shirt. Also, I would change the neckband on your Concord Tee. It sounds as if it will bother you. A great idea to add fish eye darts to your Patina blouse. It would work for the front, but possibly not the back due to the gathering into the yoke. Your idea of taking off the sleeves and taking it in sounds the best as the darts will not fix the too wide shoulders. Glad to hear you are recovering from your horse fall. Take care and happy sewing

Thank you for reminding me of the gathers on the back of the Patina, I'd not taken that into account 🤦‍♀️. Sleeves off it is then! And neckband off the Concord too 😁😘

    Hi, quite new to sewing, could I ask what type of fabric are you using… thanks..

    • @pinkderdlesews
      @pinkderdlesews Місяць тому

      Welcome to the world of sewing 😊. I was using a cotton fabric, which came in a pack of 'fat quarters'. You can pick up fat quarters in most fabric shops, or online and if you are in the UK, Aldi even sell them now and again. If you are just starting, then cotton or polycotton fabric would be ideal to begin with as it is nice and stable and doesn't move about, it's also easy to press. Quilting weight cotton fabric would also be nice to use and has some gorgeous patterns. Do let me know if you need to know anything else and good luck and have fun with your sewing 😘😘
