I followed your satin shirt tutorial... People have been asking me where I bought it lol. Thank you so much

[@ishwaryayaya]

where is it?

[@stefanicatacutan2293]

share us the measurements pls

[@miinah1996]

i tried making this it turned out amazing tips for anyone who's making this top - use more than 50 cm if you have large bust measurement , you see how she folds the extra fabric to make the facing , if you had large bust measurements you won't have much left when i made this i ended up with about 2 cm facing which is way too little to work with - other thing is that what she did in the side seam (i think it's known by the french seam) , which means you first sew wrong sides facing each other then trim the seam as close as you can to the stitches then you flip it on the other side and then you sew it right side facing each other so the seam is trapped inside the that's why it says no surger needed i didn't pay that much attention to this first time making it so i ended up with a messss xD and Good luck and as always thanks for your great content Anna

[@Maria-ve6hv]

How much fabric did you use?

[@miinah1996]

@@Maria-ve6hv the First time I used 50cm ( half a meter ) as she said in the Video , but i didn't had enough for the facing i recommend using 60 cm

[@graciel1852]

Do you know what she meant by 1/4 bust -5 does she mean divide the measurement of your bust then subtract 5? I’m so confused on the first part of the video, what does length from strap mean?

[@Natalie-mh8ee]

Very helpful about the French seam, I was trying to work that part out 😊 thank you for the information!

[@graciel1852]

It would help if maybe you did a voiceover explaining the steps, it’s very hard to understand what you’re doing from just watching

how do you know how much the 1/4 bust -5 and the 1/4 bust +2 shoud be appart and how do you know where to put the 1/4 bust +3 centimeters

[@CcCc-nq9mv]

🙃

[@surilopez2220]

Have the same question

[@Bya2401]

i quess we can measure from the armhole down and find out ( for the 1/4bust-5 to 1/4bust +2) this i think that will also depends on how much exposure we want in this area. and the other (1/4bust+3) should be put depending on the lenght that we want. I don’t know 🤷🏻‍♀️ hope you will understand smth from my explication ☺️ it’s a guessing solution i’m not 100% sure about this.

[@marinebernadac7725]

I don't understand what is the "length from strap". Can you explain me? Thanks you!!

[@Annathetailor]

I meant measure from the point where you detach a strap on the front panel 🌸

[@محبةاللهشاهين]

Very beautiful,i want to Know the quality of the sewing machine,please

[@bhanavimathur]

So basically, the length from strap is the point where the strap starts to the hem. Which will be the length of the top. And the measurements and all bust measurements divided by 4 with plus or minus as stated? I’m a bit confused about this. What are the -5, +2 , +3? Correct me if I’m wrong, it’s the armhole, actual bust line and waist?

[@bhanavimathur]

And then we have 2 facings? One is folder over to the CF and there is one extra piece for the back.

[@Annathetailor]

You are absolutely right with everything you’ve said. I cut two details folded in half so that’s why all measurements are divided in 4. First width is a neck, then bust and something between waist and hips.

[@bhanavimathur]

Thanks for clarifying! I tried making this with a modal satin (that’s what I had available) but I started with the straps and and unfortunately the fabric is fraying too much. I couldn’t turn the straps inside out with the loop turner. I don’t have an overlocker, and I don’t think a zig zag stitch would work on the on straps. Any recommendations on how I could finish mine?

[@trecymtn]

@@bhanavimathur If it frays too much, try a zig zag stitch or another technique to make spaghetti straps: make biais tape with the fabric and then fold them and stitch close to the border... I don't know if what I'm saying is clear 🤔

great video!! Maybe it's a silly question but what is 1/4 bust measurement? Thank youuu

It’s bust measurement divided by 4

[@桂花糖年糕精]

I got confused at the measurement part, how is +2cm and -5cm only apart for about 1cm😭

[@StarGirll-4]

Sameee 💀😭

[@loudwhisper1]

I would have made the back width to armhole shorter, because it doesn't have to be so loose. If only you just wanted it to be like that.

[@AlexMarieDIY]

honestly, I'm worried it'll fall right off... :)

The rectangular fabric is the interfacing for the back that was cut at 2:18. The half strap point is the point where you attach the strap to the back. She made the mark for the half strap point at 2:00.

Do you cut fabric on the bias?

[@kuzia98]

are you using 100% silk fabric or polyester? if it is silk, are you using any specific setting on the machine, as silk can be difficult to sew on some machines?

[@Annathetailor]

I used 100% silk. Just make sure you using a thin needle and thin thread and the stitch length about 2-3 on the machine settings
