About Me
- Oksana Starzhynska
- My blog's main subjects are sewing, the thing in which I am experienced the most, and beadwork, which is, in fact, pushed me into blogging. I am also engaged in knitting and crocheting. All together they are the set of skills which I use to make my wardrobe my whole life. These are not my only interests, I also like the English language (that's one of the reasons that my blog is bilingual), try to travel around my country and abroad (when can afford it), am interested in art (to the degree of a dilettante but nevertheless) and adore the people who can create anything beautiful or useful whatever it is :-) So welcome to a needlecrafter diary!

Tie Neck Dress, or How to Arrange a Photo Session
While I was sewing I didn't think a lot about this introduction to my new project although I like a lot of things about it: the pattern, the fabric, the work on it and the way I look in it... And when I was preparing this post it became obvious why I had no ready idea for that. Because the main adventures of this dress started after it was ready :-)
Поки я шила, не думала про вступ до мого нового проекту хоча в ньому мені багато що подобається: модель, тканина, сам процес пошиття, і те, як я виглядаю в цій сукні... І лише коли я готувала цей допис, стало зрозуміло, чому у мене для того не було ідей напоготові. Тому що головні пригоди сукні почалися коли вона вже була готова :-)
Well, in my opinion Burda 8/2017 is among the best of their issues. I liked a lot of outfits from it and the first one I chose to make was dress #115, very womanly, with the hint for retro, the times when I started being interested in fashion, with many details but not overloaded with them, with soft draping and delicate gatherings.
What I made different - cut the skirt bias. All the rest is nothing unusual.
When doubling details 3 and 4, it is better to baste them along few times to avoid the bulging in the ready dress.
I didn't understand exactly why they used clasps for the fastening, I guess usual zipper would be as good. But as i didn't make this before I followed the instruction and made this one.
The last detail - cuffs with two buttons. As always at first I stitched the right side of the cuffs to the wrong side of the sleeve and then the wrong side of the cuffs to the right side of the sleeve.
