ity 2508 at the beginning of march we got dumped with a huge pile of snow like nearly a foot i d been complaining about my black wool coat being too big i d ordered a couple different coats online and none of them fit well plus the fabrics were subpar on its maiden voyage to my office i decided to use a pattern that i ve made before coincidentally in march but in 2015 to make it easier on myself and to make it quickly i did not make it quickly as these things go i started the coat on march 5 and finished it on april 20th 2015 version in pink wool blend from hancock fabrics tears i decided to use a camel colored wool from stash that came from a woman in my machine knitting group brown buttons from stash and champagne colored rayon lining from stash a ralph lauren fabric mart find for 1 99 yd in 2019 i love these kinds of projects from my previous version size 16 44 5 finished bust i am around 39 5 adjustments sewed 1 2 seams on front princess and side seams 100 wool coating in magenta from hancock fabrics 100 polyester pongee lining fabric in baby pink from fabricmart bound buttonholes tutorials by iconic patterns and julia bobbin bagging the lining tutorial by grainline studios need small fba shift bust point down 1 lengthen sleeve 1 2 raise pockets 3 4 1 back facing this time size 16 i initially used smaller seam allowance and had to resew them all to 5 8 100 wool coating from stash 100 rayon lining in champagne tan from fabric mart regular buttonholes with buttons from fabric mart bagged the lining using cecelia podolak s easy guide to sewing jackets book i did not need an fba i did shift the bust point down 1 i did not lengthen the sleeve and should have i did not raise the pockets and should have i did add a back facing and i lowered the back tab on this version in preparing to sew this jacket i read my own review and a bunch of other reviews so many people complained about pattern errors and i was all i don t remember having any issues last time ha well inexperienced sewer me probably didn t have any issues this pattern has a lot of errors notches that didn t line up an error in drafting the straight collar which i didn t catch until it was assembled the lack of a back facing is insane i think there were more grr by march 7th i had the pockets inserted and princess seams sewn realizing i should have moved the pockets up i only had 7 of these buttons and there were supposed to be 5 on the front and 2 on the collar so i decided i didn t have enough for the sleeve bands with the collar error i could have done the button bands i think the sleeves look better with them by march 12th i had the shell constructed and ruh roh this is too big i took all the seams from 1 2 to 5 8 and why is the back band so high i think it s a notch error march 22nd i realize the collar is wrong i m super annoyed but not enough to recut the thing do i even have enough fabric to do so i lazily drafted a facing and topstitched it down instead of doing it the right way because it s a raglan it would have crossed part of the front sleeve part of the back sleeve and the back it must have bothered me more than i realized because it was april 17th before i returned to working on the jacket but it s ready for buttonholes the buttonholes needed are too big sigh i can do it i can do manual buttonholes i watched a threads video mimicked the settings used and success april 20th my finished coat ready for wear i am contemplating topstitching the collar and oops i moved that back band down a little bit too far i think i wore it 3 times before the weather changed ah well there s always next year posted by ks_sews dressmakingbacles at 9 57 pm 6 comments labels fabric mart fabrics finished projects outerwear simplicity facebook twitter pin wednesday april 2 2025 some nightgowns burda 5 2016 1 2016 we ve all read it or said it sewing is therapy i needed to sew i also knew my focus was nil i d been working on the lisette vest and trouser pattern from butterick but no way could i go back to that i was about to have houseguests for 2 3 weeks and decided i d make some nightgowns since i d be required to actually sleep in clothing tmi lol burda 5 2016 way back in 2016 i used this dress pattern from spring issue of burda to make a nightgown https sewing patternreview com review pattern 125146 my fabric was a very lightweight cotton or linen knit and it s still my favorite nightgown the pattern is 5 2016 113 there s a top version as well it s an a line shape with an inverted front pleat and braided straps i was using a lightweight french terry and thought the three layers of fabric might be too heavy so i instead used some plain white rayon knit to make binding i cut a size 40 neckline and armhole and graded out to a 42 for the rest i did not add hem allowance both adjustments are standard for me with burda mag i did not make any adjustments to the pattern to account for binding instead of hemming i cut the binding at 1 7 8 and attached with a 3 8 seam allowance on the sewing machine i topstitched with the coverstitch sewed the side seams hemmed it done it s my second favorite night gown then i made another one but this fabric is a rayon blend super drapey and it is not my favorite the only difference from the yellow one is that i cut three narrow strips and braided them to make the straps i cut it on the cross grain and it is still extremely limp and stretchy the easiest adjustment i can think to make is to just cut off the straps and maybe use a plain black knit sewn into tube like the yellow one burda 1 2016 105 a dear friend sent me a giftcard to fabric mart and i bought a piece of lightweight french terry for another gown why did i decide to switch it up because we just like to be difficult don t we this tank top pattern from burda gave the same vibe but with more stable straps shoulders i cut a size 40 42 as outlined above and added no hem allowance but i made the mistake of largely just tracing down from the waist to lengthen it err that s not going to work it s snug through the hips and while it otherwise is very comfy it s not uncomfortable to sleep in i just don t wear it nearly as much as the two favorites from the 5 2016 pattern the inset is cool and presents an opportunity to add interest i used a lighter part of the tie dye fabric here did a face binding at least that s what i think it s called i stitched a strip of fabric to the front turned it to the inside and coverstitched in place and did a rolled edge on the inset with my serger i used a matching thread and edge stitched the inset in place it s so cute you see how it s snug on lily s hips sigh posted by ks_sews dressmakingbacles at 3 30 pm 5 comments labels burdastyle magazine fabric mart fabrics sleepwear facebook twitter pin wednesday march 26 2025 yet another ikea cutting table but but but it just works my 6 foot tall son lying on the table the moment i had an accepted offer on my house i started sketching out plans to build the cutting table of my dreams i knew i was going to be making space for woodworking at the house and was r e a d y planning i was pretty particular about the style of table okay fine i m pretty particular about almost everything and some of the more popular folks versions weren t my style last june i posted to ig discussing my table plans with a rough sketch of what i had in mind from that post i was really excited to build a table from scratch but woodworking is harder than it looks i know there are some plans using 2x4s and corner braces but that s not what i want please don t suggest that tutorial and i didn t really want a kallax base either but then it dawned on me that most of them felt off but that s because a lot of people don t have any overage extension of the tabletop off the base or lacked clearance underneath my folding table from joann died with moving things out of the room for the floors it just tipped over lol it s okay but not solid the bottom leg is no longer straight but i got that table in summer 2014 10 years i got my money s worth so i need a table like now ikea has gotten so expensive the 2x4 kallax is now 79 and the 2x2 is 45 plywood and lumber costs are up too another consideration with building as i d want to use cabinet grade plywood and a sheet is expensive so i m going to use two kallax 2x4 units on a plywood base this gives me a surface of 30 1 8 x 57 5 8 i ll top it with a sheet of melamine once everything else in the room is in place i ll tape off a 42x72 area and a 45x76 area if i can comfortably adapt the larger size i will i am 5 5 and a half but have a short torso and longer legs respectively 36 is minimum cutting table height for me so i hope to find 5 casters the other option is a plywood sheet between the kallax and the melamine for an additional 3 4 and then use 4 casters i ll let costs drive that decision the left shading indicates plywood on the side to hang a pegboard and roll holders for my tracing paper as an avid burda mag sewer this is a must have i don t really need the additional storage a kallax provides my basement is 14 x28 but will move some things to the cutting table to store like interfacings or tools that are primarily used at the cutting table i had this long ongoing discussion with a sewing friend where we were plotting out our tables we essentially wanted the same thing and were constantly discussing components pricing etc the more i researched the more i realized it was going to cost a lot more than i thought plywood is expensive good casters are expensive and you need so many to properly support the thing it was going to cost quite a bit to make this happen then one day i had a lightbulb moment the 4x2 kallax has a base stand available wanna guess how tall those legs are go head guess five inches woohoo and i have been so accustomed to the idea of having the table on casters that i hadn t considered building one without them my basement is 14ft x 28ft in this space i wouldn t be moving it and in fact hadn t moved the other table that was on casters a single time in the prior 18 months having my table on wheels was not a necessity and that made the kallax make even more sense my plan was to use two of the 4x2 kallax with base 109 each and a sheet of melamine 60 but then my world imploded and nothing else mattered so yeah i got all the things structure important to note my minimum required height was 36 the finished height of the kallax in this orientation is 30 1 8 the finished height with the base and legs is 37 before i got the sheet of melamine i kept saying wow this is perfect the only reason this wouldn t work as is is that the overall size of the cutting surface was only 30 1 8 x 57 5 8 not a giant cutting table of awesomeness 3 4 sheet goods have a nominal width of around 0 7 so now my table is about 37 3 4 which is just a bit tall keep this in mind if you are shorter standard measurements for sheet goods is 4x8 feet many stores say they ll provide one cut for free i d measured out floor space as mentioned and decided that 48 wide would be overkill but i d do it if i had to i have the tools at home to cut melamine but 1 it was the middle of winter and 2 cutting melamine is a bit more of a skill than wood i really waffled on the finished width and ultimately decided to leave it long enough that i could choose to add a 2x2 kallax to the end later if needed i bought my melamine from a lumber yard it was the same price everywhere home depot lowes menards and the lumber yard but i figured the cutting would be better and more precise there the additional cut was only 10 so worthwhile to do i decided on a finished top size of 42 wide and 76 long yall it s glorious my top is not attached to the kallax a full sheet of melamine weighs about 90lbs since mine is a little under 3 4 the size of a full sheet i estimate it weighs 60 65lbs i purchased that tacky rubbery shelf liner from the dollar tree and my top does not move lastly i decided not attach the the two kallax s to each other at all some people use mending plates or straight brackets to connect them leaving them separate means it s easily disassembled but it does not impact the stability with shelf liner accessories i knew that i wanted a pegboard for all of my tools and i also wanted a paper roll mounted to the side i sew a lot of burda magazine patterns i was going to wait and see on the kallax accessories link to ikea accessories not monetized but as mentioned went whole hog now if you re keeping track i have about 12 of overhang width wise and a little under 18 length wise it took a couple tries to get the overhang on the working side right even though i have had a free standing table for a while i primarily work on one long side of the table accessing the surface from other sides as needed on my side i have 4 of overhang i have the wave doors on the two left cubes top and bottom the two upper center cubes i have the divider that splits into two and on the lower two cubes i have drona boxes on the right side i have the wave drawers on the back side there is 8 of overhang and i have four drona boxes in all of the lower cubes on the side open to the room i have two skadis peg boards initially i purchased the large 30x22 skadis it would span the width of the two kallax shelves and extend about 2 3 of the way down the side while you can screw into the upper parts of the kallax pretty much in the same area where the attachment screws are i really didn t want to as they can be reused individually at any point currently so i exchanged that for two smaller versions each 14x22 attached with 20lb 3m command strips each of the skadis boards weighs less than 3lbs
