Zlata skirt sewalong: #17 Pattern alterations for various styles

* KLIKNITE za tekst na srpskom

We have finished sewing the Zlata skirt. I showed you how to sew all three variations of the skirt, and you saw the lining pattern can be used to make an A-line skirt.
Today I 'll show you five alternative ways to use the pattern, by making alterations to it. Since all the alterations are rather simple, I decided to describe them all in a single post instead of having two separate ones I initially announced. Therefore, this is the last post from the Zlata sewalong series.

A skirt with horizonral stripes

I've already shown you this variation of the skirt, with horizontal seams that make the skirt look as if it had stripes. You can alter the skirt using two or more fabrics in contrasting color or prints, and you can make as many horizontal stripes as you like. You can even make the stripes in different widths.
You can use various fabric remnants to make this skirt

Alter the pattern by making curves along the skirt panels, parallel to the hemline. Cut the skirt panels along the new curves and cut the fabrics using the new pattern pieces.

A plaid skirt

If you want to make a skirt using a plaid fabric, and you'd like to match the horizontal stripes along the seams, while making them parallel to the hemline, you will need to cut the skirt panels to pieces as shown on the picture below. Rotate all the pieces so that the hemline is almost horizontal, and mark the straight grain lines.

When cutting the fabric make sure all the checkers are well matched along the seams. Alternatively, you could cut the pleat panels on bias, which would make the skirt really interesting.

A gathered skirt

Instead of making box pleats, you could make gathers along the top edge of the skirt panel. Cut the pattern for the view C and gather the top edge instead of pleating it. The skirt should be gathered between the left and right side pleats. You could use light to medium weight fabrics like viscose, georgette, chiffon, silk, cotton, linen, lightweight denim, thin corduroy, soft suiting, etc.

A - line skirt with pockets

You can trim the lining pattern with pockets and make a nice A-line skirt. Lay the pocket lining pattern over the front skirt lining panel and copy the pocket opening shape to the skirt pattern. Cut the skirt along the drawn curve. Use the pocket pattern pieces to complete the skirt.

A skirt with two box pleatse

You will get another interesting variation of the skirt if you reduce the number of pleats. The pleats can be removed from the skirt panel by closing them, meaning connecting the end fold lines of the same pleat. The center front pleat can easily be removed by folding it along the full pleat line, use the fold line as a center front / center back line.

I hope I have given you enough ideas for various interpretations of the Zlata skirt pattern. Along with the three views and the lining pattern you have a solid base for making lots of various skirts. I believe you'll discover some new ways for using the pattern as well. Either way, I would love to see where your imagination has taken you!

To be honest, writing the sewalong has dried me out, so I'll try to rest this week, but I'll continue writing on a regular basis from the next week. I'll write as per usual schedule - on Mondays and Thursdays. During the last month, since I published the pattern I even managed to sew several garments, and I'll show them to you in the days to come. I even prepared some new tutorials for you.

How to buy the pattern

Zlata skirt pattern costs $11.98,and it can be bought via my Etsy shop.
I use 2Checkout as a payment collector - it is an equivalent to PayPal - which accepts the following payment methods:

* PayPal via 2checkout (www.2co.com)
* Credit / Debit cards via 2checkout : Visa, Dina Card, Master Card, American Express, Discover

PayPal doesn't support selling option for my country yet, so I use 2Checkout payment collector instead.

When making a purchase order, select "Other" in the payment options. I have to manually issue an invoice for you, via 2Checkout system. The invoice contains a link where you can complete the purchase - it's a page on 2Checkout's website. Once you fill in your billing information, you can chose to pay either by using PayPal account or your credit card. You don't have to register to 2checkout and you won't be charged any additional fees. It's simple, fast and secure. Once the payment is completed, I will enable the pattern download on my Etsy store. I monitor the state of my Etsy store several times a day, and I get instant emails whenever any change is made, so the purchase is usually completed within the same day. Sometimes, due to my daily duties and a time zone differences, it takes more than a day to complete the purchase.

For any additional information about the pattern or the purchase, feel free to email me at: anajan.stepalica [at] gmail [dot] com.

Šivenje Zlata suknje: #17 bonus: izmene kroja za različite stilove

* CLICK to read the text in English

Završili smo šivenje Zlata suknje. Pokazala sam vam kako da napravite sve tri varijacije suknje, a videli ste da se od kroja za postavu može napraviti još jedna, jednostavna, suknja A oblika.

Danas ću vam pokazati kako još možete iskoristiti kroj, sa manjim ili većim izmenama i napraviti još pet varijacija. Budući da su izmene kroja jednostavne, rešila sam da sve opcije objedinim u jednom, umesto u dva posta, kako sam prvobitno najavila. To znači da je ovo poslednji u serijalu postova o šivenju Zlata suknje.

Suknja sa horizontalnim prugama

Već sam vam pokazala ovu varijaciju suknje, sa poprečnim šavovima koji daju izgled horizontalnih pruga na suknji. Suknju možete napraviti od dva ili više materijala u kontrastnim bojama ili dezenima. Možete napraviti koliko god želite horizontalnih šavova, zavisno od toga šta vam se najviše dopada. Čak možete pruge napraviti tako da budu različitih širina.

Ovakvom suknjom možete utrošiti ostatke materijala koje imate.

Kroj ćete izmeniti tako što ćete na panelima suknje iscrtati krive linije, paralelne sa linijom poruba. Na dalje iskrojte panele duž novih linija, pa iskrojte materijal koristeći nove krojne delove.

Karirana suknja

Ukoliko želite da pravite suknju od kariranog materijala, i želite da poprečne karo linije na materijalu budu paralelne sa porubom, podelite panele suknje na delove, kao što je prikazano na slici ispod. Sve krojne delove zarotirajte tako da je linija poruba gotovo vodoravna, pa obeležite na svakom krojnom delu pravac tkanja.

Prilikom krojenja materijala gledajte da se karo linije poklapaju na svim krojnim delovima. Alternativno, panele falti možete iskrojiti pod uglom od 45 stepeni, što će suknju ućiniti još zanimljivijom.

Suknja sa naborima na struku

Umesto olfaltni, Zlata suknju možete sašiti tako da ima nabore pri vrhu. Iskrojte krojne delove za suknju C, a gornju ivicu panela naberite, umesto da je faltate. Nabirajte suknju na potezu između dve bočne falte originalnog kroja. Ovaj model možete napraviti od tankog i srednje debelog materijala, poput viskoze, svile, pamuka, lana, tanjeg teksasa, tanjeg somota, mekog štofa, i slično.

A - suknja sa džepovima

Trapezastu suknju koju biste šili prema kroju za postavu možete obogatiti džepovima. Postavite krojni deo za postavu džepa preko prednjeg panela postave, tako da su bočne i gornje ivice panela poravnate. Precrtajte ivicu otvora džepa na panel suknje, i iskrojte panel duž iscrtane linije. Koristite krojne delove za džepove da biste kompletirali suknju.

Suknja sa dve falte

Još jednu varijaciju suknje dobićete ako smanjite broj falti na panelima. Falte lako možete ukloniti sa krojnog panela tako što ćete ih zatvoriti, tj. spojiti krajnje linije pregiba falte na krojnom panelu. Središnju faltu najlakše ćete ukloniti tako što ćete kroj presaviti duž pune linije koja predstavlja pregib falte, a na dalje ivicu duž koje ste presavili faltu koristiti kao centralnu liniju kroja.

Nadam se da sam vam dala dovoljno ideja za interpretaciju Zlata suknje. Zajedno sa tri osnovne varijacije, i krojem za postavu, imate solidnu osnovu za šivenje dosta različitih suknji. Verujem da ćete i sami otkriti nove načine da upotrebite kroj. U svakom slučaju, volela bih da vidim u kom pravcu vas je odvela mašta!

Iskrena da budem, ovaj serijal postova me prilično iscrpeo i umorio, tako da ću ove nedelje gledati malo da odmorim, a od sledeće nedelje ću nastaviti sa redovnim raposredom postovanja - ponedeljkom i četvrtkom. Tokom ovih mesec i nešto dana, od kako sam izbacila kroj za Zlata suknju, uspela sam čak i nešto da sašijem, pa ću vam i to pokazati u narednom periodu. Čak sam spremila i nekoliko novih tutorijala za vas.

No, pre toga vam spremam jedno lepo iznenađenje, zakazano za ponedeljak - intervju sa Darkom Vidićem, čovekom koji stoji iza sajta Dirura, domaćeg portala za online prodaju rukotvorina. Prvi put sam se našla u ulozi novinara, pa se nadam da će vam priča sa njim biti jednako interesantna kao što je i meni bila.

Zlata skirt sewalong: #16 Hem the skirt, method 3

* KLIKNITE za tekst na srpskom

Today I'll show you the third method for hemming a circle or a straight skirt. The technique is suitable fore medium to heavy weight fabrics which shouldn't show off the topstitching on the right side.

You will need a lot of bias cut strips of fabric, which you can make yourself or buy at a notions store. It's important to use a lightweight fabric for strips.

Cut 3 cm wide bias strips, cut enough of them to hem the skirt. Sew the strips together with angled seams that reduces the bulk when the strip is folded in half width-vise and press the seams.

With right sides together place the strip over the skirt and align the edges. Pin the fabrics together.

Sew the band to the skirt, by distancing the stitch line 0.5 cm from the edge of the fabrics.

Fold the ends of the band to the side, cut off the extra length and sew the band to the skirt.

Flip the band over the seam and press it.

Now flip the band over the edge of the skirt and pin it in place.

Using the stitch in the ditch technique, sew the band in place.

With wrong sides together fold the bottom edge of the skirt and pin it in place. The width of the hemline should be 2 - 3 cm. Press the fold line.

Hand sew the hem to the skirt, using a dense set of stitches, that do not show on the right side of the fabric.

Due to all the pressing of the hemline the pleats have lost their shape, so press them in place once again.

Now you have made the final work on your lovely skirt!
