Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This time I am completely satisfied with my wrap top!
Since a while now I tryed constantly to create my own jersey wrap top.
Look at the last pics: In the beginning I was inspired by the vintage pattern simplicity 5018 and then I liked the asymmetrie of the white blouse from Byron Lars.
I also sewed the asymmetrical jersey skirt which matches nicely with the top, I think.
Whenever I will find time I will share my pattern, using this tutorial
May be there is someone in the community who has the same measurements like me (german size 42).
Material Notes

Irmchen! OH MY GOODNESS!!! This is SOOOOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL!!! It TRULY is one of the MOST beautiful tops that I have EVER SEEN!!! I just got through downloading your pattern and your “instructions”. Oh, and by the way…your English is better than some people who speak it and write it for their first language! I cannot WAIT to try to make this top! It will be a VERY difficult task for me…for a couple of reasons. 1) I have not done much sewing AT ALL in my life time. What I have down came out very beautifully. I actually came across a jumpsuit recently that I had started about 20 years ago and just never finished for some reason. The material was still in like new condition! Looking at this website has really gotten me to wanting to pull it out and finish it! That would be so AMAZING! 2) Back to your AMAZING top…the second problem that I would have in making your top is, it would be WAY TO SMALL. I have a lung disease that makes me use oxygen and take LOTS of medicine. The medicine made me gain lots of weight and because I need the oxygen it is almost impossible for me to excercise. SO! I will have to enlargen your pattern. I was wondering if you knew if I could use the same software program that you mentioned to digitize the pattern to make the pattern larger? In fact, I would be VERY OPEN to ideas FROM ANYONE WHO READS MY COMMENT as to how about to best approach my problem. As I stated, I have VERY LITTLE experience in sewing! As long as it’s a straight forward project with little or no problems, I can do ok. But…ALTERING THE PATERN/CUSTOMIZING IT? Yea, not so much!
Thank you so very much for sharing your work! You are a beautiful woman inside AND out! You did a TRULY AMAZING JOB!!! – Shelly

Thanks Ralf! It makes me happy that you like my top!:-)
I will add the pattern in the next days but I am too lazy to make a tutorial in view of my bad, bad english.

Wahnsinn, und dann dieser Rock dazu – echt edel! Dass Du Durchzugbänder gemacht hast, habe ich gerade erst gesehen. Wie das Band im Rücken verschwindet gefällt mir gut. Der Rock ist auch toll, auf diesen Burda-Schnitt hatte ich auch schon ein Auge geworfen (von Vogue gibt’s einen ähnlichen)!

Hach: “edel”… das hat Petra auch schon gesagt und das höre ich gern! :-)
Burda? Vogue? Der Rock ist eine eigene Bastelei aber es ist immer wieder verblüffend, dass man überall etwas ähnliches finden kann!

Wow Immi, your top is really beautiful! I’ve read your series of posts regarding this top, and I agree with you – this version is the best, and it’s so flattering on you. Job well done!

Hey cool geworden. Dieser Stoff hier fällt anders als die anderen, was genau ist es? Ich selbst mag Rüschenröcke zwar nicht so, aber in dieser Kombi ist es so, als ob der Rock die Assymmetrie des Tops fortführt und damit ist es ein raffiniertes Outfit geworden, finde ich.

Diesesmal habe ich einen Romanit Jersey verwendet den ich am Ausschnitt mit Taft unterfüttert habe… der Stoff fällt viel, viel besser als der dünne Kaugummi-Viscose Jersey.
Das mit der Asymmetrie stimmt, finde ich auch gut… nur der Volant stört noch irgendwie, oder?
Liebe Grüße
Immi

Dieser Jersey trägt überhaupt nicht auf und das war es doch immer, was dich gestört hat. Ich mag die ganz dünnen Jerseys deswegen auch nicht, obwohl die Designs da besser sind. Aber mit schwarz liegst du richtig. Dieses Top würde zu meinem Tulpenrock passen.
Der Volantrock würde mit Stiefeln besser wirken, sie Riemchenpumps wirken etwas klobig zu dem feinen Outfit.
Oct 14, 2011, 05.13 PMby irmchen
Tulpenrock??? Das hat schon jemand empfohlen – jemand den du auch kennst. ;-)
Stiefel dachte ich auch aber genau die sehen klobig dazu aus. Ich habe einen schmalen Stiefel in schwarz aber das ging irgendwie nicht.

Ja da hast du wohl recht, aber ich nehme dieses Top jetzt ganz anders wahr. Ich arbeite erstmal an Wickelkleidern… mehr schlecht als recht.

Oh, and I’m a 42 as well – so I look forward to seeing your pattern when you get the chance!

I am glad you like my top!
Tomorrow I try to digitalize the pattern… but because my bad english I don’t pretend to add some instructions.
Thanks again! :-)

Gorgeous – and oh so flattering! You look fabulous. I’m going to see if I can hunt down a copy of that pattern for my own!
