Još jedna jednostavna suknja/Another simple skirt

Kao što već znate, ja sam ljubitelj jednostvanih stvari, što odeće i obuće, tako i ostalih stvari koje me okružuju.

Ova suknja, na slikama u nastavku, je jedna od najjednostavniji suknji koje sam šila.
As you already know, I am a lover of simple things, clothing and footwear, and other things that surround me.
This skirt, in the photos below, is one of the simplest skirts I've ever made.

Kada sam se dvoumila oko pisanja za Bernina blog na engleskom jeziku, najveća dvojba bila je da li sam ja u stanju da napišem i sašijem nešto jednostavno, tj. da objasnim ceo postupak izrade onoga što zamislim.

Za moju prvu priču na Bernina blogu sam čak uradila i probni primerak (Sada imam čak dve tašne za plažu, a ne idem na more ovo leto.), a sada nisam. Jednostavno sam još pre koju nedelju dobila ideju, napisala tekst, kupila materijal i napravila suknju. 

Čak dva puta sam sebe slikala u suknji, ali nisam uspela da to uradim kako sam želela. Materijal mi je bio prelep kad sam ga izabrala, ali se na slikama loše pokazao i čak sam par dana imala ideju da kupim drugi materijal i sve uradim ispočetka, ali ostalo je sve ipak na ovome.
When I doubted about writing for the Bernina blog in English, the most significant doubt was am I able to think up and sew something simple, that is, to explain the complete process of making what I imagined.
For my first story on Bernina blog I even did a trial (now I've two beach bags, and I'm not going to the sea this summer), and now I didn't. Just for a few weeks I got the idea, wrote the text, bought the fabric, and made a skirt.
Even two times I took photos of myself in a skirt, but I didn't manage to do it as I wanted. My fabric was overwhelmed when I picked it up, but it looks terrible in the photos and even for a couple of days I had the idea to buy another fabric and do everything from the beginning, but this doesn't look so bad.

Ovaj model je polukrug suknja bez rajsfešlusa, a ceo postupak krojenja i šivenja ovakve jedne suknje možete naći u priči How to sew a simple half circle Skirt without a zipper koja se nalazi na BERNINA blogu.

Suknja je jako udobna i prijatna za nositi, a na slikama u nastavku se može videti kako mi pristaje.
This model is a half circle skirt without a zipper and the entire process of cutting and sewing this skirt you can find in the story How to sew a simple half circle skirt without a zipper located on the BERNINA blog.
The skirt is beautiful and comfortable to wear, and in the photos below you can see how it fits me.

Moje mišljenje je da ovu suknju može sašiti svako, čak su većina stvari početničke. Jedino na šta treba dobro obratiti pažnju jeste izbor tkanine jer neki materijali mogu da zadaju mnogo poteškoća.

My opinion is that this skirt can sew everyone, even a complete beginner. The only thing you should pay attention to is the selection of fabrics because some fabrics can inflict difficulties.

2xplavo/2xblue

Kao što sam navela u priči o crvenoj suknji, tada sam se pripremala da šijem suknju sa gumom u pojasu, ali ravnog kroja i u plavoj boji.
Ovo je ta suknja, ali sam imala dovoljno materijala za kratke pantalone, tj. šorc pa sam uradila oboje.
As I wrote in the story of the red skirt, then I was preparing to sew the skirt with an elastic in the waistband, but flat and in blue color.
This is that skirt, but I had enough fabric for shorts, so I made both.

Što se suknje tiče, mogla je biti malo šira jer mi je trenutno pomalo uzana u bokovima, iako je sve u redu i prilikom sedenja i kretanja.
Za šorc sam iskoristila kroj iz Burde za mesec maj 2010. godine, model 120 i 121, s tim da sam dodala kose džepove što sam uradila i na suknji.
Pojas je kod oba modela urađen tako da je guma u njemu.
As for the skirt, it could be a bit wider, because it is a bit narrow on my hips right now, although everything is fine by sitting and moving.
For the shorts, I used the pattern from Burda Magazine for the May 2010, model 120 and 121, with the addition of the pockets, which I did on skirts too.
The waistband is in both garments made with an elastic in it.

Ove dve stvari sam sašila još u junu tako da sam ih do sada već nosila nebrojeno puta. 

Ispostavilo se da mi je šorc bio potreban, baš zbog vožnji biciklom koje redovno praktikujemo i nikad lepšeg vremena ovde u Nemačkoj.

These two things I sewed in June, so I've been wearing them many times so far.

It turned out, I needed shorts, because of the bicycle ride we regularly do and the never better weather here in Germany.

Crvena suknja/Red skirt

Volim crvenu boju... Više volim plavu, ali odmah posle nje je crvena...

I love the red color ... I love blue more, but right after it is red ...

Ovu suknju sam imala u planu za šivenje još prošle godine i nisam stigla. Nisam ja veliki ljubitelj suknji i donjih delova (sem farmerica koje sam upravo skontala da ih volim), ali su mi potrebni. 

Naime, teško mi je često iskombinovati donje i gornje delove da ja sama budem zadovoljna sa dobijenim. Imam klasičan oblik kruške (ne volim te oblike i ta razvrstavanja, ali je tako najlakše objasniti), sa jačim donjim delom, a sitnim gornjim pa iz tog razloga prečesto pribegavam nekim rešenjima za koje ja mislim da su sigurna.

This skirt was in my plans for sewing last year and I didn't make it. I'm not a big fan of the skirts and the bottoms (except jeans, I just realized, I love them) but I need them.

Namely, it is difficult for me to combine bottoms and tops so that I'm happy with the result. I have a classic pear shape (I don't like these shapes and sorts, but it's easier to explain what I want to say.), and for that reason, I too often resort to some solutions that I think are safe.

Materijal je pamučni puplin u jarko crvenoj boji, a imala sam ga na zalihama i to nekih 80-90 cm (Sad ne mogu tačno da se setim.).

Model sam donekle sama osmislila, a onda zbog ušitaka pozadi iskoristila jedan kroj iz Burde. 

Iako sam planirala da suknja bude ravnog kroja, više sam se oslonila na kroj koji sam koristila pa je zbog toga suknja pomalo A kroja. (Postoji u jednoj od Burdi i kroj za suknju kakvu sam ja planirala, ali nisam uspela da ga nađem u mojih 150 časopisa.)

Ušitke su tu baš zbog odnosa obila struka i kukova, a da ne bi bilo previše nabora i viška materijala pozadi. 

Pojas je ovako planiran, na liniji struka (Iako to najmanje volim.).

Ostavila sam na gornjoj ivici 1,5 cm viška materijala (plus 3 cm pri krojenju) i prošila liniju pre prišivanja pojasa za suknju. Rupice za traku za vezivanje bih inače uradila na mašini, ali sam imala viška karika, koje sam kupila za detalj na prethodnim pantalonama, pa sam njih iskoristila. U pojas sam stavila gumu 4,5 cm širine i prema tome napravila pojas.

This fabric is a cotton poplin in bright red color, and I had it in my stock, some 80-90 cm (I don't know it now.).

The model I designed almost completely alone, and then, because of darts on the back of the skirt, I used a cut from Burda Magazine.

Although I was planning to have a straight cut, I was more reliant on the pattern I used, so the skirt has A-line form. (There's in one of Burda Magazines pattern for the straight cut skirt with back darts, which I've planned, but I couldn't find it when I needed, in my 150 journals.)

I wanted to put the darts on the back, just because of the width of the waist and hips, and not to have too many wrinkles and excess fabric on the back between waist and hips.

The waistband is as planned, on the waistline (although I love that at least).

I put on the upper edge 1,5 cm of excess material and stitched it before joining waistband to the skirt. Holes for the bow tie would otherwise be done on the sewing machine, but I had more metal eyelets with washers, which I bought for the previous pants, so I used them. I put the elastic in the waistline 4,5 cm wide and the waistband is because of that 4,5 cm wide (plus 1,5 cm).

Razlog za moje šivenje je uvek nešto (uglavnom cipele, ali ima izuzetaka). 

Ovaj put između ostalog, manjak jednostavnih i običnih donjih delova za lako kombinovanje (Hitna situacija!), a glavni razlog je ova majca sa lubenicama koju sam kupila prošle godine. Kao što već napisah, nisam uspela prošle godine suknju da sašijem, pa je tek sada na blogu i u mom ormaru.

The reason for my sewing is always something (mostly shoes, but there are exceptions).

This time, among other things, the lack of simple and ordinary bottoms for easy combining (Emergency Situation!), and the main reason is this t-shirt with watermelons print I bought last year. As I already wrote, I didn't succeed in sewing this skirt last year, so it's now in my closet.

Ja sam uz suknju iskombinovala običnu pamučnu majcu sa printom i uz to patike, ali mislim da suknja može dobro da ide uz razne gornje delove i obuću.

I'm wearing a skirt in combination with a plain cotton print t-shirt and sneakers, but I think the skirt would look good in combination with various tops and shoes.

Pripremam se da šijem sličnu suknju, ali ovaj put ravnog kroja i u plavoj boji, što će uskoro i na blogu biti.

Preparing to sew a similar skirt, but this time straight-cut and in blue, which will soon be on the blog.

Plavo, plavo... /Blue, blue, ...

Iskrojila sam tri druge stvari za jesen i onda iznenada odlučila da mi treba baš ova suknja. 

Volim da šijem suknje, ali kao što sam već negde pre napisala, retko ih nosim. Uvek imam neku ideju za suknju, čak i trenutno, bar tri suknje imam u planu da sašijem u skorije vreme.

Interesantno je to da su mi suknje uglavnom jednobojne. Ja volim boje, volim šareno, ali suknje i pantalone su mi skoro uvek jednobojni. Čak i jakne i kaputi su mi šareni pa sam već u velikom problemu spojiti odevne komade u dobru odevnu kombinaciju.
I cut three other things for the fall to sew and then suddenly I decided I need this skirt.
I like to sew skirts, but as I have written before, I wear them rarely. I have always a few ideas for skirts, even at the moment, at least three skirts I plan to sew soon.
Interestingly, my skirts are mostly monochrome. I like colors, I like colorful, but skirts and pants in my closet are almost always monochrome. Even my jackets and coats are colorful, so I have a problem to combine my clothes.

Sem što mi je ovaj kroj bio u planu za šivenje u skorije vreme, ova suknja je i nastala da bi uklopila već postojeće komade garderobe u svakodnevne odevne kombinacije.

Aside from the fact that this pattern was in my plan for sewing in recent times, this skirt was created to fit the existing pieces of my wardrobe into the everyday dress combination.

Kroj je iz Burde, u originalu je dugačka suknja, ali ja ne nosim duge suknje pa sam model skratila (Dužina moje suknje od pojasa je 70 cm.). Prilagodila sam kroj svom obliku tela i nisam stavila džepove (izbegavam ih zbog širokih kukova) koji su takođe predviđeni po originalnom kroj. 

Nažalost, ja nisam uspela u kratkom roku (Naprasno sam odlučila da šijem ovu suknju pa sam je brzo i realizovala.) da nabavim skriveni rajsfešlus, a imala sam želju i volju da ovde stavim skriveni rajsfešlus, pa sam iskoristila jedan obični koji sam imala.

The pattern is from Burd magazine, originally the skirt is long, but I don't like long skirts, so my model is shortened (length of my skirt is 70 cm). I adjusted the pattern to my body shape and didn't sew pockets (I avoided them because of the wide hips.) which were also foreseen by the original pattern.

Unfortunately, I didn't succeed in a short time (I decided to sew this skirt suddenly and realized it quickly.) to get an invisible zipper, but I had the wish and the will to put an invisible zipper on this skirt, so I used a simple one I had.

Danas sam iskoristila dan bez kiše pa sam napravila slike. 

Ovaj put su na slikama dve kombinacije.

Na prvoj sam suknju iskombinovala sa košuljom dugih rukava. To je jedna od prvih košulja koje sam šila (pre nekih 10 godina).

Druga kombinacija je suknja sa majcom sa šljokicama koju sam kupila prošle godine na nekoj rasprodaji, a nisam imala sa čim da je nosim, a sa suknjom se lepo uklopila. (Zbog majce sam i šila suknju.)

Cipele sam prilagodila kombinacijama.

Today was a day without rain, so I used the opportunity to take photos.

This time, there are two combinations in photos.

On the first, I combinate skirt with a long-sleeved button-down shirt. It's one of the first shirts I've ever made (some 10 years ago).

The second combination is a skirt with a sequin blouse I bought last year on a sale, and I didn't have with what to combine. (Because of the blouse I sewed the skit.)

I adjusted the choice of shoes to the combinations.

Na slikama je suknja najdominantnija bez obzira na kombinaciju, iako sam očekivala da neće biti jer je jedini detalj na njoj falta spreda.

Po mom mišljenju, suknja je više elegantna nego što nije, mada ću je ja, za početak, nositi u kombinaciji sa običnom majcom i čizmama.

In the photos, the skirt is most dominant regardless of the combination, although I expected it wouldn't be because the only detail on it is a pleat forward.

In my opinion, the skirt is elegant, although for the beginning I shall wear it in combination with the usual shirt and boots.

Još jedna suknja/Another Skirt

Kod mene kao da je leto već počelo.

Ovih dana spremam neke letnje kombinacije, a što se prolećnih tiče, tek po koja dođe na red. Istina je da mene leto raduje, ja haljine obožavam i meni je leto uvek prilika da smislim i sašijem par novih (A ove godine šijem sebi kupaće kostime pa se neizmerno radujem. Nikad ih nisam šila pa me izazov dodatno motiviše.). A sa druge strane, imamo par zakazanih izleta i druženja pa je to prilika više za šivenje. 

It's to me as summer has already started.

These days I make some summer outfits, and as far as spring combinations are concerned, just few come to the order for sewing. It is true that I'm looking forward to the summer, I love dresses and then I have the chance to design and sew a couple of new ones (This year I'll sew swimsuits and I'm looking forward to it. I had never sewed them and it's a big challenge for me, so I'm well motivated.). On the other hand, we have a couple of arranged trips and parties with friends, so it's a few more opportunities for sewing.

Suknju sam sašila pre nekog vremena, ali sad tek dolazi na red da je postavim na blog. (Naime, nakupilo mi se par stvari pa sad pokušavam da nadoknadim pokazivanje najbrže što mogu.)

I sewed this skirt a few months ago, but just now I find time to write something about it. (Namely, a couple of things have been accumulated, so I'm trying to make the stories as fast as I can.)

Suknja je sašivena od kepera kojeg sam kupila pre par godina (Izvučem ponekad nešto od davno kupljenih materijala i kažem sebi, sad je vreme.). Kroj je ravan, a kao što sam već negde pre pisala, rajsfešlus šijem da bude uočljiv, a na ovoj suknji je (kao i na prethodnoj) metalni u srebrnoj boji.

The skirt is stitched from cotton fabric, which I bought a few years ago (Sometimes I get some of my long ago bought fabrics and say to myself, now it's time.). The cut it straight, and as I have written before, I sew the zip to be visible, because of that, on this skirt (as in the previous too) is the metal zip in silver.

Moja kombinacija za ovu suknju je pamučna majca sa printom (Sad tu moram da dodam da je to jedna od omiljenih stvari koje kupujem, posle cipela, naravno.).

Jednostavno, baš kako volim.

I decided today for a combination of skirts with a cotton print shirt (I have to add that print shirts are one of my favorite things to buy after the shoe, of course.)

Simply, just as I like.
