- Ny bok - new book -
En fantastisk tid for mine nye stoffer. Jeg mottok denne splitter nye boken av forfatter Ayse Westdickenberg fra Stiebner-Verlag.
Boken er på tysk med detaljerte instruksjoner for ulike syteknikker: for eksempel fletting eller synlig knappestolpe...
A wonderful time for my new fabrics. I received this brand new book by author Ayse Westdickenberg from Stiebner-Verlag.
The book is in German with detailed instructions for various sewing techniques: for example braiding or visible button placket...
I utgangspunktet er det et sykurs med illustrerte trinnvise instruksjoner for 12 syteknikker på 12 måneder. Så hvis du vil, kan du følge boken i over ett år og deretter ha 12 koordinerte plagg – det kalles Capsule Wardrobe –
Basically it is a sewing course with illustrated step-by-step instructions for 12 sewing techniques in 12 months. So if you want, you can follow the book for over a year and then have 12 coordinated parts - in the Capsule Wardrobe -
The term appeared in American publications as early as the 1940s, and was revived in 1970 by London boutique owner Susie Faux... and popularized by American designer Donna Karan in 1980. The Capsule Wardrobe is a small collection of clothing items that can be together in a variety of ways, it containing everything you would normally wear... "small and compact"... all of those pieces to mix and match.

Hvis du elsker minimalistiske klær, er denne boken for deg. Men også de som liker rikt illustrerte syanvisninger eller kronologiske sekvenser av sykurs er på rett vei, for det er syanvisninger for hver måned, slik at det til slutt blir sydd 12 nye plagg som kan kombineres med hverandre.
Mønstrene er i størrelse 34 - 48 i original størrelse som innstikk i boken.
If you love minimalist clothing, this book is for you. But you're also right if you like richly illustrated sewing instructions or chronological sequences of sewing courses, as I said, there are sewing instructions for each month, so that at the end there are 12 new pieces of clothing that can be combined with each other.
The patterns are in sizes 34 - 48 in original size as an insert in the book.
Jeg skal velge etter klær og teknikk og først sy en bukse :-))
I will look for: "What technology do I need?" ... and I want to sew pants first.

You evoked a memory of my mother’s sewing books. She had a series of hard-cover books. I wonder what happened to it?
AntwortenLöschen...you are so clever. I can barely thread a needle!
AntwortenLöschenHi Viola love your new pants and top ,you are very clever ,well done and hope you have a lovely day my friend 🌹🤍🌹
AntwortenLöschenDet er nok en bok du kommer til å ha mye glede av kjære Viola! Jeg tror nok du kan det meste fra før, men det er fint å ha en god bok for deg uansett om sying. T-skjorten ble veldig fin, og du er så flink til å sy!
AntwortenLöschenKlem fra Marit
Pants sound hard! I like the fabric for the t-shirt.
AntwortenLöschenVery nice! I used to be an accomplished seamstress, many years ago. I haven't used a sewing machine for nearly 30 years. I think this is a great idea.
AntwortenLöschenThe clothes are really pretty, wish I had a few! I think you are my first German follower! We have three grandchildren.
AntwortenLöschenLots of projects and a great manual to follow! Perfect. Love the shirt with the planes ‘flying’ so to speak.
AntwortenLöschenThe book looks like it could be really useful for picking up new skills and creating some lovely new clothes. I love the t shirt you have made.
AntwortenLöschenHave a great week Viola x
Lots of creative ideas must be flowing through your head. :) Have fun!
AntwortenLöschenVery nice
AntwortenLöschenI wish I was better at sewing. I would love to make clothes like these.
AntwortenLöschenWie romantisch das Flugtraum-T-Shirt im Aprilsonnenwind schaukelt!
AntwortenLöschenYour new book sounds like a wonderful resource, and inspiring, too. A garment a month is certainly doable. Love the flying t-shirt!
AntwortenLöschenHi Viola thanks vor visiting my blog, the book looks worth buying and I like the capsule wardrobe idea :) have been trying it myself.
AntwortenLöschenInteresting book on sewing it seems. I taught myself many years ago but don't sew these days.
AntwortenLöschenLike your two T shirts, you did well.
Hej Viola!
AntwortenLöschenDet blev riktigt fina tröjor, tyget är fint. Sydde mycket förr men nu blir det mest att jag stickar.
Hälsningar Marika
Jag sydde mycket när barnen var små. Men nu gör jag det aldrig.
AntwortenLöschenDin tröja blev fin som du sytt av flygplanstyget.
Ha en bra dag.
Carin
Clothes like those you show here have always been hard for me to do! What a great thing to learn though. This is exciting.
AntwortenLöschenEnjoy your new book - the t shirt looks great. xx
AntwortenLöschenSounds like a wonderful and useful book, Viola. I can imagine pants aren't the easiest of garments to sew. Totally loving the t-shirt by the way. Well done you! xxx
AntwortenLöschenThis is a super post Viola, I enjoyed it very much. Thank you and that's a super shirt!
AntwortenLöschenThe book looks good, i hope you enjoy working through it. Your creations are aöways beautiful, Viola! Hugs, Valerie
AntwortenLöschenLiebe Viola,
AntwortenLöschenDu kannst ja garantiert noch viel lernen von so ein Buch.
Den Stoff ist schon verwandelt worden in tolle shirts.
Liebe Grüße,
Mariette
that looks a fantastic book and I love the shirt you have already made...
AntwortenLöschenHugz
Så spennande og lærerik bok. Ja, det er vanleg med bunad i min region, og eg brukar og min. Kos deg med syinga :)
AntwortenLöschenI think you will enjoy your new book.
AntwortenLöschenThe tee-shirt looks great.
All the best Jan

I love minimalist clothing.
AntwortenLöschenThe book should be super interesting to get ideas for new creations.
AntwortenLöschenBeautiful and creative T-shirt, I loved it.
Back in the 1970's My DW and I had our marriage blessed. I had no suit to were so I made my own suit for the occasion. It was quite the project. Full lining, bonded pockets, vest, and trousers. Zippers and button holes were definitely a challenge. The stretch bias was hard to work with but fun. I know what fun it can be searching for just the right fabric for projects. The book looks interesting. You should get many hours of pleasure from it.
AntwortenLöschenHugs and Blessings
Jeg synes dette er en veldig god bok.
AntwortenLöschenDu har laget fantastiske ting, jeg elsker t-skjorten.
Jeg lager aldri noe selv, kjøper ikke mye klær, kun når jeg virkelig må.
Hilsen Irma
Hei Viola! Dette er nok boka for deg. Tipper du får mye glede av denne. Et helt sy-kurs! Lykke til! Gleder meg til å se mer.
AntwortenLöschenKlem Ingunn
Nähen ist für mich ein Graus, aber das Buch klingt genau richtig für dich. Ich mag, wenn man Klamotten miteinander kombinieren kann und alles irgendwie zusammen passt. Das T-Shirt, das du genäht hast, sieht gut aus - was für ein schöner Stoff! Viel Spaß beim Nähen der nächsten Kleidungsstücke, Viola!
AntwortenLöschenÖnskar jag kunde sy! Jättefina tröjor!
AntwortenLöschenHa en fin söndag nu, ta väl hand om dig :)
Kram från Titti
Um abraço e bom 1º de Maio.

Lindos modelos para lucir, yo toda la ropa que tengo es confeccionada y hay muchos almacenes comerciales , que tienen buenas prendas y para todas las ocasiones, tanto para el día a día, como para una ceremonia de gala.
AntwortenLöschenQue tengas un buen día. Saludos.
Such a sweet shirt you made with the airplane fabric! A wonderful sewing book with so many pretty things to make! Cant wait to see what you create next!
AntwortenLöschenHave a wonderful week - and enjoy your inspiring new book.
AntwortenLöschenThis looks like a fabulous book! I might see if I can find it next time I visit family in Switzerland. Not many German books here in Scotland.
AntwortenLöschenIt must be a nice book. You made a lovely garment and I wish I could sew like you! So clever.
