BREAKING THE PATTERN Flexibound – 6 November 2018

Eu amei esse livro. Além de ser lindo com fotos incríveis ele vem com moldes de todas as peças. As roupas são descoladas e chiques. A autora usa tecidos naturais o que na minha opinião valoriza muito o trabalho. Valeu demais e o preço está muito abaixo do que ele realmente vale.

There are pattern templates (9 sizes) included for a variety of items, including a bag, dresses, pants, blouses, etc.You will need to have tracing paper to use the templates. The best paper is found at an art supply store. The templates allow you to mix and match different features to make your own creations. You will only be limited by your own imagination.Instructions are clear, but the print is small.NOTE: Seam allowance for most of the patterns is 3/8 -- it isn't obvious, but early on in the book (page 6) this is specified. Very easy to miss and will make a big difference in sizing if you assume that it is 5/8, which is typically the seam allowance for most patterns.

Un libro muy completo que cubre muchas modificaciones habituales para poder hacer tu propia ropa y que te quede genial, también indica que arrugas indican que necesitas esa modificación. Incluye varios patrones básicos para trabajarlos. Aún no he hecho ninguno del libro, solo he usado modificaciones para otro patrones. Lo recomiendo.

Il libro si presenta bene, le spiegazioni anche se in inglese sono ben chiare e facilmente traducibili. Per ogni modello ci sono i consigli anche per il tipo di stoffa da usare, e inoltre ci sono molti trucchetti per la confezione.

This is a great book for those of us who love Burda Style. You get some clever designs, patterns and instructions. The books contain detailed photographs which explain written instructions. I have not tried the patterns yet and the instructions seem textbook. I haven’t seen any tips like from Brensan Studios of cutting a neck facing about 1/16” smaller than the bodice front piece so the neckline lies flat, but they are OK. You get patterns for: A shopping bag, Sade blouse, Rae pants, Utu skirt and pinafore, Salina dress, jumpsuit and top, Saraste shirt, Kaste cocktail dress, with butterfly sleeve, Palo jeans and Halo coat. Most designs come with variations that change the look, e,g., the butterfly sleeves on the sleeveless cocktail dress. The photos are of finished garments so you can compare.. Patterns are folded in the back in a pocket. They are on regular photocopy weight paper. Just for the fun-factor this book gets 5⭐️ because so many books show pointless designs. These are all makable but different at the same time. Fabric choice is key.
