Beautiful handmade blouse (ESP/ENG)

Hello friends of this beautiful community, it is the first time I upload content here but after seeing such beautiful works that you have shared I felt encouraged enough to share mine, it is a beautiful blouse that I made for my daughter, completely hand sewn because at home I do not have sewing machines, so if you want to see the process join me in this post

Hola amigos de esta hermosa comunidad, es la primera vez que subo contenido aquí pero después de ver tan hermosos trabajos que ustedes han compartido me sentí lo suficientemente animada para compartir el mío, se trata de una hermosa blusa que hice para mi hija, completamente cosida a mano porque en casa no cuento con máquinas de coser, así que si quieren ver el proceso acompáñenme en esta publicación.

First I spread the white fabric on the bed to measure it, the fabric I am using is cotton.

Then I began to cut. From the white fabric I needed 80 centimeters wide (because later we will fold it and it will be 40 cm in half) and 60 centimeters long, which when folded will be reduced to 30 cm.

Here I started sewing the black fabric, this fabric is the one that will go on the top of the blouse. This fabric is 80 centimeters wide, I folded it in half and started sewing the edge to join, so the width was reduced to 40 cm. It is 16 cm long and when folded it is about 8 cm long. Let's say it's a small strip because it will be the top edge of the blouse.

Then I joined both fabrics, the white and the black to start making the blouse, to be more precise I used pins, this will prevent both fabrics from moving when sewing, and as you can see I folded the fabrics, so the amount of centimeters was reduced, as I said at the beginning, this is done with the aim that it is no longer necessary to make a hem and the piece is with a better finish.

Once I joined the fabrics together I turned the piece over so that the seam was hidden on the inside, then I folded both again but this time lengthwise, i.e., to make it go around the circumference of the torso, and secured with pins to prevent the fabrics from moving. It is important to use the same color thread as the fabric you are going to sew, I for example used black thread on the black part and white on the white fabric, this way you will get a better finish of the garment.

Now we are going to make an important part of the blouse, I cut a black stripe 1 meter long and 4 centimeters wide, folded the width in half, sewed leaving a centimeter margin to reduce it to 3 centimeters and then turned it over using a wooden stick.

Now we come to an important part, I took the blouse and as you can see in the photos, after folding in half I began to sew along the length to join it, which gave me two tabs, and as you can see in the second photo I folded one tab on the left and another on the right to sew on both sides, in this way we will form a space through which we will insert the black strip that we made in the previous step.

Just as I told you, in that space we will insert the black strip, I used a safety pin to make the process easier, this strip will be used to adjust the blouse and the design is very nice

As you can see, there are several ways to wear this blouse by adjusting the strap, including tying it in the front to make it strapless.

That's all for today, I hope you liked this beautiful blouse that is very easy to make and can also be worn in different ways, it's all a matter of creativity.
