Ellen's Sewing Passion

I wanted to make a corset for my costume  when our choir  Skakkekoret should have a concert and sing "Moulin Rouge" songs 💓   I chose to use satin for the outher layer, - and linen for the inner layer I used vliseline H250 that is very stiff for all parts. I stitched all parts together except for the left front part  since the zipper will be at the left side.  The left front part is finished, and I have turned it to the right side. Then I stitched the other parts together with the lining. - and the zipper in place on the left side. I should have used eyelets, but since I didn't have it at home I made holes with the belt-tool. BurdaStyle pattern magazine 11/2005 "Diamonds are forever" We are so happy that the concert was a great sucsess! :)

This is an outfit I'm gonna love to wear! I have made several blouses of the same BurdaStyle pattern,  and the Flower blouse is one of them with hi-low hem.  I was curious to try the pattern for the trousers, and it was rather interesting :) I made the pleat for the back part and stitched the yok together with the lower part. I have iron the button lists with vliseline and then to the inside.  The hem is turned and stitched to the inside before stitching the side seams together. I made a double yok, so it looks nice on the inside too. The collar are stitched together,  - and then stitched in place on the blouse. I made the slits for the sleeves before stitching the cuffs together. The blouse is finished. I have uses some nice transparent buttons that I bought in Tokyo. You can see the hi-and low hem, and that's what I like a lot! BurdaStyle #111 02/2020 I have used linen fabric for the pants, and I stitched the insert at the back  and the side pockets in place ...
