    It's McCall's 5377, I think from the 60s. It turned out so nice! I really want to try to make this!

    Very well explained, bust darts made sense for me for the first time! Thank you!

      I’m so glad I could help! It took me a while to figure out how to measure them too, until I learned about how bra cup sizes are determined by figuring out the difference between the bust and underbust and I was like 😱.

      You need more room around the nipple depending on cup size

    I love the fact that you repurposed a pillowcase! The color and tiny floral pattern were perfect. I didn't care for the front neckline, it looks like it would feel awkward. Thanks for the video

      It was definitely a specific kind of neckline that was popular in the 50’s. It’s not for everyone, but I’m a fan.

    Could you use any kind of fabric for this design??

    • @MirandaMilner
      @MirandaMilner  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Pretty much. I mean, it would depend on how you want it to fall and the comfortability you’re okay with. And of course some fabrics are a way bigger pain to work with or fray a lot, but you could technically make it with just about whatever you want.

    The only thing I'd critique are the darts. Try to sew more alongside the edge for a few stitches so you don't get the little bulk where the nipple is.

      @@FirestyledSamaurai Well, you just make the blouse to your own measurements. For some people, a pillowcase won't have enough fabric. I just used a pillow case because I liked the material, but you can make it with any fabric you want. I try to show how to draft these patterns to fit yourself. That's why I don't usually mention my personal measurements, I just explain how to get the correct measurements on yourself.

      @@FirestyledSamaurai Well, the straps are adjustable which would probably help in that situation. Other than that, you can just make it a tad bigger and it will still probably be wearable if you lose weight.

      It’s a while since I made this, but I believe I did make the sides straight. There aren’t any buttons, I just pulled it over my head, but you could alter the pattern in lots of ways.

    Honey, the very first thing someone needs to learn about begining to sew and getting a nice finished product is you spend more time ironing than sewing!!! Every seam and fold needs to be ironed as you go!!! It’s the difference between looking “homemade” and a professional finish. Pressing at the end is no substitute!!!

    • @jenniferbailey1580
      @jenniferbailey1580 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      Possibly if you are in the depths of “wearable? muslin” for either testing a new pattern or working without one where best case it’s pajamas… you can go halfway on some of the seams. But you won’t have a result anywhere a seam meets an unironed seam that gives you some information muslims are made for.
