Stand in front of a full-length mirror in your underwear and carefully study your body shape. Regardless of whether you are slim or plump, your body will tend to predominantly conform to one of the body types described below. Knowing your silhouette, you will be able to know what type of outfits that will make you look great, and which ones you should avoid as they throw the shape of your body off balance. 2020 Playfication Learning, LLC © PagePage 1 of 1 8 of 8 HOURGLASS SHAPE This type of female figure is typically considered the perfect figure because it is the most proportionate. It is the most versatile body shape and practically everything that women with this figure wear looks good on them. However, you should avoid falling into exaggerations that unbalance your body. You have an hourglass figure, when your shoulders and hips measure the same, and your waist is narrower. You have a balanced and symmetrical body. Clothes that lengthen your body will accentuate your figure and make you look great. What to wear: 1. Wrap dresses and “A” shaped skirts 2. Dresses with a defined waist and knee-length skirts highlighting your curves 3. Solid colors 4. Two-piece dresses 5. Shirt dresses with a waist belt 6.

  • Glossary of Sewing Terms
    Glossary of Sewing Terms Judith Christensen Professional Patternmaker ClothingPatterns101 Why Do You Need to Know Sewing Terms? There are quite a few sewing terms that you’ll need to know to be able to properly follow pattern instructions. If you’ve been sewing for a long time, you’ll probably know many of these terms – or at least, you know the technique, but might not know what it’s called. You’ll run across terms like “shirring”, “ease”, and “blousing”, and will need to be able to identify center front and the right side of the fabric. This brief glossary of sewing terms is designed to help you navigate your pattern, whether it’s one you purchased at a fabric store or downloaded from an online designer. You’ll find links within the glossary to “how-to” videos or more information at ClothingPatterns101.com Don’t worry – there’s no homework and no test! Just keep this glossary handy for reference when you need it! 2 A – Appliqué – A method of surface decoration made by cutting a decorative shape from fabric and stitching it to the surface of the piece being decorated. The stitching can be by hand (blanket stitch) or machine (zigzag or a decorative stitch). Armhole – The portion of the garment through which the arm extends, or a sleeve is sewn. Armholes come in many shapes and configurations, and can be an interesting part of a design. B - Backtack or backstitch – Stitches used at the beginning and end of a seam to secure the threads. To backstitch, stitch 2 or 3 stitches forward, then 2 or 3 stitches in reverse; then proceed to stitch the seam and repeat the backstitch at the end of the seam.

  • How to Make Spaghetti Straps and Your Life Easier By: Loyl8
    How to make spaghetti straps and your life easier By: loyl8 http://www.burdastyle.com/techniques/how-to-make-spaghetti-straps-and-your-life-easier--3 When I was making spaghetti straps for my Sweet Neopolitan dress for the first time I was ready to rip my hair out. Then after a little research I found the most miraculous tool ever!! Joann Fabrics carries one “turn-it-all”: http://www.joann.com/joann/catalog/productdetail.jsp?pageName=search&flag=true&PRODID=prd10485 (not my favorite, but the other is hard to find) and then the cadillacs of tube turners “fastturn”: http://www.fasturn.net/xcart/home.php . You should always have a “loop turner”: http://www.joann.com/joann/catalog/productdetail.jsp?pageName=search&flag=true&PRODID=prd299 on hand. I tried all the other tricks and i was not successful at all (well at least one of my straps worked but it was torn to shreds and so were my fingers). Step 1 — Materials Gather your materials You can make your own tube turner by purchasing a small hallow tube 1How(metal or plastic) from a hardware or pluming store and by cutting the ends (making sure there not sharp so your fabric won't get ruined). Step 2 — Measuring Depending on your need and the fabric chosen there a few ways you can cut your strip. I cut mine from selvage to selvage. You can cut on the bias it will stretch more, but usually easier to turn. If you cut on the bias you may want to add elastic or cording for extra strength.First, make the fabric straight (I rip my cotton so it's perfectly straight).
