Šarena haljina/The colorful dress

Jedan predivan materijal, jedan dobar kroj i jedna lepa haljina.

Tim redom ide, tako sam ih kupila, birala i sašila.

One beautiful fabric, one good pattern, and one lovely dress.

In that order, I bought, picked and sewed them.

Jeste da sam obećala sebi da treba sređivati garderobu, da nešto sa nečim ide, ali u haosu kojem smo trenutno (sređivanje jedne kuće, davno spakovane stvari u kutije u drugoj) ne znam odakle da počnem niti da li da uopšte počinjem dok se ne preselimo. A to znači da sam nešto počela, ali mi loše ide... Sa druge strane treba šiti od materijala kojih imam u zalihama, a i to uspevam loše jer mi baš treba nešto sasvim drugo od onoga što imam... A treće stvar je da treba da šijem jednobojne materijale jer mi takvih stvari najviše fali, ali i tu se slabo šta kreće ka uspehu...

Sve u svemu, definitivno je da sam neuspešna u ciljevima koje sam postavila. No, to me svakako ne sprečava da šijem ono što mi se svidi.

Yes, I promised myself that I needed to sort out my wardrobe, that I could more combine, but in the chaos, we are currently in (renovation of one house, long ago packed things in boxes in another) I don't know where to start or even to begin until we move. And that means I started something, but I'm doing that poorly ... On the other hand, it needs to be sewed from the materials I have in stock, and I manage it poorly because I just want something completely different from what I have ... And the third thing is that I need to sew monochrome materials because I miss these things the most, but I procrastinate...

Overall, it is definitely that I am unsuccessful in the goals I set. But it certainly doesn't stop me from sewing what I like.

Ovaj materijal sam kupila polovinom juna, a došla sam tada u radnju sa namerom da kupim materijal za suknju i kupila čak dva, naravno šarena. U međuvremenu sam se predomislila i sašila od ovoga haljinu.

I purchased this fabric in mid-June, came to the store intending to buy fabric for a skirt and bought two, of course colorful. In the meantime, I changed my mind and sewed this dress.

Model je broj 104 iz oktobarskog izdanja Burda magazina za 2018. godinu. 

U časopisu se nalaze dve haljine sličnog kroja, a materijal koji je preporučen se razlikuje od materijala koji sam ja koristila tako da moja haljina drugačije pada u donjem delu. 

Nisam se trudila da uklapam boje i linije na materijalu jer je to bilo nemoguće s obzirom na smerove linija i nejednake dezene, tako da su se negde slučajno poklopile linije, a negde ne.

Što se rukava tiče, morala sam da skratim i suzim prvobitno planirane iz časopisa jer nisam imala dovoljno materijala za njih. Moja mišljenje je da ovi bolje pristaju uz ovaj materijal, ali sam se dvoumila da stavim ipak kratke rukave.

Haljinu na slikama možete videti sa pojasom i bez, a ja ne mogu da se odlučim koja varijanta je bolja. 

The model is No. 104 from the October 2018 issue of Burda Magazine.

There are two similar patterns in the magazine, and the recommended fabric is different from the material I used so that my dress falls differently in the bottom.

I didn't bother to match the colors and lines on my dress because it was impossible given the directions of the lines and the uneven patterns so that the lines somewhere coincided and not.

As for the sleeves, I had to shorten and narrow down planned initially from the magazine because I didn't have enough fabric for them. It is my opinion that these fit better with this material, but I was hesitant to put on short sleeves. 

You can see the dress in the pictures with the belt and without, and I can't decide which one is better.

Na slikama u nastavku možete videti u celom kako haljina pristaje.

In the pictures below, you can see how the dress fits me.

Nadam se da vam se svidela haljina.

I hope you liked the dress.

Žuta haljina/The yellow dress

Haljine volim više od svega u svojoj garderobi, pogotovo lepršave i lagane. 

Od kako pišem blog, šila sam više od 30 haljina, to znači da je za te nešto više od dve i po godine, novih haljina u mom ormaru toliko. Sad mi to deluje kao mala cifra, ali kad pomislim da je to jedna količina u mojoj garderobi, deluje mi dovoljno. Prošle godine bloga sam sašila upola manje nego prve godine, a ova haljina je tek prva haljina u trećoj godini bloga.

I love dresses more than anything in my wardrobe, especially when they are fluttering and light.

Since I'm writing this blog, I've made more than 30 dresses, which means that for just over two and a half years, so many new dresses are in my closet. Now, it seems to be a small number, but when I think that it's a quantity in my wardrobe, I think, it's enough for that period. In the last year of my blog, I sewed less than in the first year, and this dress is just the first dress in the third year of the blog.

Ova haljina je rađena po modelu 112 iz Burda časopisa za mesec novembar 2009. godine, ali sa malim izmenama, kao i uvek.

Malo je reći da sam dugo tražila odgovarajući materijal za ovaj model jer je on u planu za šivenje već 6-7 godina. Kupujem razne tkanine i uvek je sve bilo preče nego ova haljina, a sada sam je šila samo zbog svog zadovoljstva, definitnivno ne iz potrebe. 

This pattern is the model 112 from the Burda magazine for November 2009, but with small changes as usual.

It's a little to say that I've been looking for a long time for the right fabric for this model, as it has been planned for sewing for 6-7 years. Meanwhile, I bought a variety of materials, and something was always more important than that dress, and now I've been sewing it just for my pleasure, definitely not out of need.

Materijal od koga je haljina napravljena je viskoza u žutoj boji, kupljena za 5 eura na jednom od vašara tkanina. 

Model je ovde napravljen sa manjim izmenama, nešto sam oduzela, nešto dodala jer je moja ideja bila drugačija nego što je zamišljeno. Naime, dodala sam na dnu kraći nabrani deo i sad baš nisam sigurna da je bio potreban. Možda je moglo i bez toga, ali ne znam kako bi haljina izgledala. A sa druge strane, čini mi se da je taj deo suvišan, ali ne znam zašto. Medjutim, ja sam zadovoljna sa haljinom, čak sam se oduševila kad sam je obukla završenu.
The fabric from which the dress is made is viscose in yellow color, bought for 5 euros on one of the fabrics fair.
The model is here made with minor changes compared to the original, something I took away, added something else because my idea was a little bit different than designed. Namely, I have added on the bottom the ruffle, and now I'm not sure if that was needed. Maybe the dress could have been without it, but I don't know how the dress would look like then. And on the other hand, it seems to me that this part is surplus, but I don't understand why I have that feeling. However, I'm happy with the dress, I was even thrilled when I tried it for the first time.

Više slika mene u haljini se nalazi u nastavku. 

Da napomenem, nisam uspela da nađem odgovarajuće cipele u svom ormaru i ove na slikama su dobro poslužile. Mada možda sam neke previdela, ali svakako da moram u kupovinu cipela.

More pictures of me in the dress is below.

To mention, I didn't manage to find the appropriate shoes in my closet, and these on photos were well served. Although I may have lost sight of some, I certainly need to buy some new shoes.

Moram priznati, oduševljena sam haljinom od kako sam se prvi put videla u njoj, tako da sam  već izabrala materijal od koga ću napraviti bluzu koristeći ovaj model jer mi se ovi široki rukavi mnogo sviđaju.

I have to admit, I  love this dress since I first saw myself in it, so I already chose the fabric from which I will make a blouse using this model because I like these full sleeves very much.

Zato što volim haljine/ Because I like dresses

Haljine, haljine, haljine, ...

Haljine i ja -  posebna priča, čak i ovde na blogu, par puta napisana. Najposebnije mesto u mojoj garderobi zauzimaju upravo one, i ima ih mnogo, ali uvek fali koja više... Haljine uvek mogu šiti, bez obzira da li haljinu trebam, ili će stajati u mom ormaru čekajući svojih 5 minuta, baš svakoj haljini se obradujem i sa zadovoljstvom je planiram i pravim... (Ne zvuči ovo napisano praktično, ali ljubav je to valjda i tu ne mogu da se kontrolišem.)

Dresses, dresses, dresses, ...

Dresses and I - a unique story, even here on a blog, written a few times. The most important place in my wardrobe occupy dresses, and there are many, but always miss one more ... I can still sew them, no matter if I need it or will stand in my closet waiting for its 5 minutes to glow, I just rejoice every one of my dresses, and with pleasure, I plan and sew it ... (It doesn't sound practical, but probably, it is love, and I can't control it.)

Nisam šila mnogo haljina ovog leta, tj. mislim da je ova četvrta po redu.

Uostalom, nisam mnogo šila u poslednjih godinu dana, ali o tome ću pisati za koji dan kad dođe godišnjica bloga, ali jedno je sigurno, najčešće sam svakako šila haljine.

I didn't make many dresses this summer, so I think this is the fourth.

After all, I didn't sew a lot in the past year, but I'm going to write about that soon when the blog's anniversary comes, but one thing is sure, I have usually sewed dresses.

Prvobitno je bio plan da od ovog materijala sašijem kombinezon, pripijen uz telo. Drugi plan je bio da šijem pantalone, a treći je ova haljina mada sam imala ideju da bi možda sako bio dobra ideja. 

Materijal je puniji pamuk sa vrlo malo elastina, a kupljen je pre koju godinu na jednom od Stoffmark-ova (Nadam se da smem da napišem i kako sam ga kupila - jedan je od onih ostataka materijala 1,40-1,80 m dužine koji se prodaju po ceni od 5€. Da, da, za te pare ne mogu da kupim haljinu, a pogotovo ne nešto po meni šiveno.).

The original plan was to sew a jumpsuit from this fabric, tight to the body. The second plan was to make the pants, and the third one was this dress, though I had the idea that the jacket might be a good idea.

The fabric is thicker cotton with very little elastin and it was bought before one year on one of Stoffmark's (It is one of those pieces of textile 1.40-1.80 m length, which are sold at a price of 5€. Yes, yes, for that money I could not buy a dress, and especially not something to fit me.).

Model ove haljine je iz Burde.

Kroj sam potpuno prilagodila svom telu, ali ne znam da li sam 100% uspela u toj nameri.

Naime, konstantno moja težina varira +/- 2 kg od težine koju trenutno smatram standardnom, a samim tim variraju mere mojih  kukova i struka u vrednosti od par cm pa kad se šije ovakva haljina, pripijena uz telo, to pravi dosta poteškoća. 

Sa druge strane, oblik mog tela je klasičan oblik kruške, tj. u veličinama to izgleda ovako - gornji deo 36, donji 38-40 sa manjim grudima i istaknutom pozadinom.

Sve gore navedeno sam pokušala da sredim na kroju ne bi li mi haljina najbolje pristajala.

The model of this dress is from Burda Magazine.

I make it completely adapted to my body, but I don't know if I 100% succeeded in that.

Individually, my weight continually varies by +/- 2 kg from the weight I currently consider my standard and thus vary measurements of my hips and waist in a couple of cms, so that always makes quite a  trouble.

On the other hand, the shape of my body is a classic form of a pear, so in sizes, it looks like this - bodice size 36, bottom 38-40 with smaller chests and a bigger back.

All the above I tried to correct to make my dress fit best.

Kao što se vidi na slikama iznad, haljina napred ima ovalan izrez, a pozadi dublji v-izrez. 

Prvo sam haljinu zamislila napred potpuno zatvorenu, a pozadi dublji v-izrez, ali sam se predomislila jer je boja i dezen materijala suviše jak pa sam smatrala da mi neće dobro pristajati takav model. I trenutno je moje mišljenje da je to bila ispravna odluka.

Druga stvar je bila dužina haljine. Planirala sam da haljina bude duža nego što vidite na slikama ispod, ali ovo je maksimalna dužina koju sam mogla dobiti od materijala koji sam imala. 

Haljina nije postavljena, sem na gornjem delu, na izrezima.

As seen in the images above, the dress has on the neckline an oval cut in a front and at the back a deeper v-cut.

First I thought the dress would be completely closed and with the deeper v-cut at the back, but I changed my mind because the color and texture of fabric are too striking, so I thought it would not fit this model. And my opinion at the moment is that this was the right decision.

The other thing was the length of the dress. I planned dress to be longer than you see in the pictures below, but this is the maximum length I could get from the fabric I had.

The dress has no lining, except on the top, on cuts and armholes.

Ovo je poslednji pravi letnji komad odeće kojim završavam letnju sezonu šivenja, a haljina ostaje u mom ormaru dok ne dođe prilika da je obučem (Tj. haljina mi u ovom momentu nije bila potrebna, ali sam želela da je sašijem.)
Ostaje mi još da završim par davno započetih komada odeće (ako ne odustanem opet od njih) pa da krenem sa šivenjem za jesen, kojem se neizmerno radujem.
Do sledećeg čitanja
This dress is the last real summer garment, with which I'm finishing the summer season of sewing, and this dress remains in my closet until appears an occasion to wear it (i.e., I didn't need this dress at this time, but I wanted to sew it.).
It remains to me that I finish a few previously started garments (if I do not give up again) so I can go with autumn sewing, which I look forward.

Greška/Mistake

Ova haljina je trebala da bude sasvim drugačija, tj. ono što sam prvo iskrojila, užasno mi je stajalo i nisam ga mogla popraviti pa je ovo na slikama prinudno rešenje.

No, sve u svemu, imam još jednu haljinu za leto.

This dress was supposed to be entirely different, that is, what I first cut out, was terrible, and I couldn't fix it, so this is a forced solution.

But, all in all, I have one more summer dress in my closet.

Materijal je prelepi pamuk, mekan, ali deblji. 

Prvobitni plan je bio da sašijem od njega haljinu na preklop, ali nisam našla odgovarajući kroj u odgovarajućoj veličini, a još da je prikladan za materijal.

Našla sam par krojeva koji su predviđeni ili za žersej ili neki laganiji materijal, tako da se nisam odlučila ni za jedan od njih.

Posle sam se odlučila za jedan kroj u kojem gornji deo ima v-izrez, međutim jako loše mi je pristajao i morala sam nešto da menjam. Taj deo nisam uspela da iskoristim, ali sam od ostataka materijala uspela ovo da iskrojim.

The fabric is cotton, soft but thicker.

The original plan was to sew a wrap dress, but I didn't find the suitable pattern in my size and to look good from this fabric.

I've found a couple of patterns that are foreseen either for a jersey or some lightweight fabric, so I didn't decide on one of them.

After I decided for a cut in which the upper part had a v-cut, however, it looked awful on me, and I had to change it. That part I didn't manage to use, but from the rest of the fabric, I sewed this what is in photos.

Ovaj gornji deo sam već par puta šila za par haljina pa je to u ovo slučaju, bila sigurna varijanta.

This upper part I already sewed a couple of times for some dresses, and in this case, was a safe option.

Kako haljina meni pristaje, možete da vidite na slikama ispod.

Nisam nezadovoljna, ali sam želela nešto drugo od ovog materijala, ali greške se dešavaju.

As the dress fits me, you can see in the photos below.

I'm not unhappy, but I wanted something different from this fabric, but mistakes happen.
