Niki the pretty folds, the video tutorial!

Hello! There are patterns that trigger your favorites, I feel that the model speaks to you in particular. The beautiful Niki is one of them :) This pattern is part of the SEW ME ARTY collection , and I had thought of it as a pillar of the fall winter wardrobe: the possibility of sewing a blouse, a trapeze dress and a skater dress, in fabrics as diverse as viscose or jacquard... I really wanted Niki to be a real party! The different versions of the pattern all have in common THE detail that twists: the origami-style sleeve folding. In itself, sewing the pattern does not present any major difficulty: no zip or buttoning, a line supported by darts and a belt for the skater version. It is this pretty sleeve that is the special step, and I want to detail this step perfectly so that your Niki is a marvel! The video tutorial is a perfect format to show the folding movement! If Niki is a pattern from the past collection, the blouse or dress version sewn in a light fabric makes it a perfect companion for spring summer if it is a little less warm. Its neckline is open and it is not lined. The pattern is only available in a pretty pouch HERE . I chose to sew the blouse, and in a fabric with very delicate embroidered details from Meet Milk offered by the haberdashery Meter Meter . Its flamboyant color caught my eye, and I am always a big fan of this kind of fabric that I call faux plains: the Dobby fabric from Atelier Brunette and its plumetis, or the cotton viscose and its delicate gold diamonds from Eglantine et Zoé are for me part of this category. This fabric is very pleasant to wear and to sew, it is very soft!
