Aujourd’hui je vous parle de carreaux. Plus pr\u00e9cis\u00e9ment du challenge associ\u00e9 \u00e0 la couture de grands carreaux. Ce challenge est \u00e9galement celui de la couture de tissus ayant des formes g\u00e9om\u00e9triques, des lignes assez visibles ou de grands motifs distincts qu’il faut faire co\u00efncider dans le soucis d’obtenir un r\u00e9sultat harmonieux.<\/p>\n

J’avais ramen\u00e9 ce tissu du Ghana et d\u00e8s que je l’ai vu chez le marchand je savais que le haut serait un Top Tilda (La Maison Victor)<\/a> et le bas un Alexandria peg trousers (Named patterns)<\/a>. Bon \u00e7a c’\u00e9tait clair. Maintenant le hic c’\u00e9tait les carreaux. Non. En fait, pas les carreaux mais les lignes qui forment les carr\u00e9s (Gnein??!). Apr\u00e8s une nuit de r\u00e9flexion, j’ai accouch\u00e9 de 2 solutions, mais la plus simple \u00e9tait la suivante: Plier le tissu en deux (comme d’hab.). Bien faire co\u00efncider les lignes sur toutes les extr\u00e9mit\u00e9s pour garantir que les carreaux soient sagement positionn\u00e9s les uns au dessus des autres. Bien maintenir le tissu pour qu’il ne bouge pas. Epingler les pi\u00e8ces de patron sur le tissu pli\u00e9, couper. Ca passait ou \u00e7a cassait. Sueurs froides \u00e0 l’essayage (oui parce que je me connais, je ne porterai pas la tenue si lignes discordantes). Ouf! \u00c7a peut passer (voir la 2e photo ci-dessous).<\/p>\n

Avez-vous d\u00e9j\u00e0 fait un exercice pareil? Si vous connaissez une technique, n’h\u00e9sitez pas \u00e0 partager, je suis preneuse!<\/p>\n

Today I’ll be taking about checks, more precisely about the challenge linked to sewing fabrics with big checks. This is the same kind of challenge as that of sewing with geometrical forms and visible lines. The idea here, is to get the garment to have an harmonious finished result. <\/em><\/p>\n

I had brought this fabric from Ghana and as soon as I saw it I knew what the project would be: a Tilda top (La Maison Victor)<\/a> and the bottom an Alexandria peg trousers (Named patterns)<\/a>. This was clear. Now the only problem was the checks. Hemm… Actually the lines. After thinking over and over again I came up with two logical solutions in order to match the lines, and the best one was the following: Fold the fabric in half (as usual).  Match the lines on the top and down layer, all around the fabric, this is to make sure that the squares are one on top of the other. Make sure the fabric is steady. Pin pattern pieces on fabric. Cut. As i have never heard of this or tried it, I was scarred. Trying especially the pants was like a trial, I know myself. If the lines are not well positioned I would not wear it. Phew!!! (see the 2nd pic.)<\/em><\/p>\n

Have you ever had this kind of challenge? If you know a helpful technique please do not hesitate to share!<\/em><\/p>\n
