  1. @pomegranatefern @[email protected] Boy are you in for a treat when you check out freesewing.eu, then! There's free bespoke patterns for a whole bunch of stuff there, including these climbing pants (called Crux), chinos, shorts and possibly some other pants situations I forgot about. I also made a bunch of their other patterns, like the Devon jeans jacket: pixey.org/p/bammerlaan/9558105 and mastodon.nl/@bammerlaan/116573 #FreeSewing

  3. Started a new project, the #FreeSewingCrux climbing pants by @woutervw. Also my first project made of #toile (#muslin / #calico ), just to see what it's like to work with it. I have some nice pink denim with a bit of stretch to make the "real" one with, once this one's done.

    I attached the pockets with my Bernina 930's triple stitch, which gives this really nice top stitching. I do hope I was supposed to sew the seam allowance with the pocket... The instructions were a bit unclear there 🫣

  5. @[email protected] I finished the Devon jeans jacket from @freesewing! The pattern comes from @woutervw.

    It's not without faults, you can see I've had to shorten the yoke significantly to fix the shoulder width, and I suspect measuring my height has also not gone completely well—it's a bit on the short side. But I still think it looks great.

    See here for all the photos: mastodon.nl/@bammerlaan@pixey.

  7. @[email protected] More progress. Setting the sleeves was actually not that hard... But this was hard: realising the measuring had apparently gone wrong, and my shoulder-to-shoulder width was set to 50cm when it should've been 42cm 🥲

    I had to shorten the yoke significantly. It's still a little bit too big, but we'll call that a relaxed fit.

    All part of learning, but I am sad that this is now really not the "actual" pattern anymore.

    More progress, I've now made one sleeve with a cuff! That was also a bit of a hassle. I've actually started a thread with feedback on the pattern on the Freesewing forums that's becoming a little bit meaty 🙈 forum.freesewing.eu/t/small-de

    I'm feeling a bit bad about that... A lot of it's probably just my inexperience.

    The last step before adding buttons is the waistband, so it'll look less like a matador jacket soon.

  11. @[email protected] I struggled with the collar... a lot. But it's in, and I've learned something. So that's good then. I only had to re-cut one collar part. 🙈

    I also closed the side seams, so now it's starting to look like an actual jacket!

  13. @[email protected] Exciting news! My #DevonJeansJacket from @freesewing now has functional pocketses! And the side parts are attached to the back part!

    I'm starting to be able to see what the final thing is going to look like. I think the wool works swimmingly.

  15. @dressdeveloper But... I don't know precisely, but doesn't something like that already exist on #FreeSewing? Perhaps you could use some of that? It's open source, after all.

  17. the blouse itself is pretty unspectacular so i might just generate a fitting one with #FreeSewing (i hope they have a basic blouse) and just take a few accoutrements from the #drcos pattern

    @freesewing Speaking of #mascot #plushies—there's this ancient website for a #Tux #plushie: free-penguin.org

    Does anyone who "gets" open source licenses know if one could just take this pattern and adjust it to work on #FreeSewing? Would be nice to have FS's more advanced pattern editor with this pattern.

    (Also on this cool website: Brother #embroidery patterns for Tux)

  20. @Mastodon You know what would be nice? To have #Plushtodon as a sewing pattern on Freesewing.org! There's already a couple of plushie patterns there, I made one just the other day.

  22. RE: mastodon.social/@statichost/11

    The last couple of months have not been easy. Very much a "victim of our own success" situation for #FreeSewing aka @freesewing

    I'm happy to have found a new home for my baby at a place that not only can handle the scale without bankrupting me, but also aligns nicely with our values.

    Not having to resort to a hyperscaler and sell a kidney to keep the site online is a nice change from the increasing enshitification of tech.

  23. Heute mit #FreeSewing rum experimentiert. Der Schnitt der rauskam war schon mal gar nicht übel. Ich werde meinen Mann am nächsten Wochenende noch mal ordentlich Maß nehmen lassen und das dann sich daraus ergebende Schnittmuster meinen Vorstellungen ein bisschen anpassen.

    Dann kann ich im Dezember ein, zwei auch mit Binder gut sitzende Hemden #nähen.

  24. We have migrated #FreeSewing to a new hosting provider this weekend, and unfortunately it didn’t go without issues.

    Due to a problem in the backend tooling of a CDN provider, the TLS certificates are not (yet) generated, and this means your browser won’t connect to the website (even though technically it is not down).

    Not all is lost though, you can access the site through the name used internally by the hosting platform. Details at:

  27. 2. Hai fertig 🎉 Größer ist tatsächlich einfacher. Der neue Stoff fusselt stark beim Schneiden und für die Zähne habe ich noch keine gute Methode gefunden 😅

    freesewing ist etwas was die Welt braucht.

    → Parametrische Eingabe von Körpermaßen und → programmatische Generierung von Schnittmustern auf → (fast) beliebiger Ausgabepapiergröße.

    Genial!!! !!!

    Beispiel: Hemd-Schnittmuster "Simon" bzw. "Simone" siehe freesewing.eu/editor/#s=%7B%22

    "Simon" (Größenvariante "Joost") auf 32 x DIN A4 bzw. 2 x DIN A0 (Screenshots)

  29. Little shoutout to #freesewing !

    freesewing.org/

    Freesewing is a crazy bonkers amazing open source project that lets people create patterns and clothes based on their measurements and preferences.

    It is very cool to use, and the code behind is just as impressive !

    It's super inclusive and free, I encourage anyone remotely curious to check it out !

  30. @dressdeveloper Seems like a nice website, thanks for sharing! It reminds me of freesewing.org/, are you familiar with them?

  31. Every time I get my hands on a couple meters of a fun fabric, I end up making a #FreeSewingSimon shirt with it. Spot the pocket on this one! I'm pretty pleased with the pattern matching.
