Embroidered Blouse Patrones - Finished!

I finished the blouse and I'm very happy!

I can't say it was easy. It was a very hard-working blouse, but it was worth it.

The pleating and the embroidery give for sure a new look to the blouse.

I think it is beautiful!

I like the length, I decided not to do a hem. I just sew a baby zig-zag stitch and it turned out good.

The hardest part were the sleeves and the neckline. As I wasn't going to place and elastic, the neckline got too large, so I had to do an extra pleat in the sleeves.

I place one bias ribbon to knot in the back, so that it could accentuate the waist.

The fabric is fresh and it's great for the summer.

I like the final result.

Emboidered Blouse Patrones - 1

The pattern is same as always. Maybe because is too easy and quick to do.

I've cut the pieces and embroidered the front part, as you can see here.

This week "cruising" the shopping center during my lunch break, I noticed this top at Caroll. I fell in love with it. It's so beautiful!

The price is not so nice: € 85,00

So I decided to make something similar. I started doing pleasts in the front , back and sleeves.

The measures used were:

Each pleat has 2 cm and 3 cm between each.

The front and back have 6 pleats each.

The sleeves have 4 pleats on the bottom and 6 on the top.

My idea was to make the pleats like shows in the picture, but I couldn't make it right.

This was the best I could do. It's not the same, but it's almost just the same.

I like just the same.

Meanwhile.... after sewing the pleats in the sleeves, my red thread finished...!

I packed my stuff. It will be on hold until Monday, where I'll buy more red thread.

Tomorrow I'll do something to keep me occupied.

Another embroidery

I love it. I just love transforming a design into an embroidery.

This one I took from website JMD Designs.

I embroidered the bordeaux fabric and like the pink top with the butterfly, here the seams are going to be in white.

I hope it works.
