Ups – schon wieder ein Monat rum! Es ist M\u00e4rz und bevor sich der nun auch endg\u00fcltig dem Ende zuneigt, m\u00f6chte ich Euch unsere dritte Gastbloggerin zu Sewing Around The World<\/a> vorstellen.<\/p>\n

Wir reisen von Paris wo Julie von joliesbobines<\/a> uns im Februar ihre Strickjacke Lola<\/a> gezeigt hat, nach Italien. Denn den M\u00e4rz hatte sich Anna vom Blog paunnet<\/a> gesichert und sie hat eins der etwas \u00e4lteren Schnitte, n\u00e4mlich das Shirt Katja<\/a>, gen\u00e4ht. Das passt ganz wunderbar, denn der Fr\u00fchling naht und auch wenn Anna<\/a> die Fotos noch im Schnee gemacht hat, so kann man die ersten warmen Sonnenstrahlen erahnen und was gibt es da sch\u00f6neres als sich in Vorfreude auf die w\u00e4rmeren Tage schon mal ein schickes T-Shirt zu n\u00e4hen!<\/p>\n

Some questions to Anna from paunnet<\/a>:<\/span><\/p>\n

Present yourself a little bit.<\/em>
\nMy name is Anna, I\u2019m 29 years old and I live in North western Italy. I started my sewing blog,
paunnet<\/a>, in 2011; after reading wonderful sewing blogs for years, I just wanted to be part of the community!
\nWhen I started the blog, I was a university student, working part time, and sewing as a hobby. Right now, I published a sewing book (\u201c
Il Manuale del Cucito<\/a>\u201d, in Italian) and I\u2019m a pattern-making student.
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

When did you start to sew and why? How did you learn to sew?<\/em>
\nI was lucky enough to have two seamstresses in the family, my mum and my gramdma, so I learnt the very basics of sewing as a child, but I wasn\u2019t too interested in it. When I was around 18, I asked my mum to make me a couple garments, because I didn\u2019t like what RTW had to offer and nothing fit me the way I wanted. I watched her making a skirt, then I participated in making the following garment, and then I quickly became independent. I caught the sewing bug and I haven\u2019t stopped since!
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

What are your favourite clothes? Do you have a fable for something?<\/em>
\nI am a very<\/u> girly girl, so I have a soft spot for dresses and skirts; I don\u2019t really like wearing pants. I also like to have some volume around the hips to hide some \u2013 ahem \u2013 problem areas, so pleated and gathered skirts are my best friends!
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

What is the sewing project you like the most?<\/em>
\nMy favourite sewing project of all time is
the dress I made for my birthday two years ago<\/a>. I used a very expensive fabric I had saved for a long time, that had a repeated rose print. I managed to utilize the print in the best way possible, and the pattern I used (bateau neckline and gathered skirt) was perfectly me. I am incredibly proud of that dress, and I wear it every time I can!<\/p>\n

Do you only sew for you or also for other people (husband, children, \u2026)?<\/em>
\nI\u2019ve been a very selfish seamstress for a very long time, but I\u2019ve started to sew for other people as well. Fitting clothes on other people, who have a different body than yours, is a challenge, but it can be a very fun one! I also love to sew for children: small garments are so much cuter!
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

From where do you get your ideas? Do you buy patterns or do you invent your own ones?<\/em>
\nI find a lot of inspiration online, from other sewing blogs, Pinterest, from fashion designers \u2026 you name it! Inspiration can struck from everywhere. Sometimes a pattern is the starting point for a project, other times, the fabric is \u2026 I\u2019m very much a \u201cspur of the moment\u201d kind of girl!
\nIn 2014, I started attending a fashion school, so I\u2019m learning to draft patterns for myself. I still like using commercial patterns, but I\u2019m trying to draft as much as possible myself to practice.<\/p>\n

Some questions to Marine from Supercut<\/a>:<\/span><\/p>\n

Where does the name of your shop come from?
\n<\/u><\/em>I decided to call my shop Supercut because Super<\/strong> is a very positive word \u2013 and I use it a lot! \u2013 and because Cut <\/strong>stands for the beautiful act of cutting the fabrics: you know all of these great mixed feelings \u2013 between joy, excitation and also stress and fear \u2013 all seamstresses have when it comes to actually start cutting into those beautiful fabrics we all crush for … this is the first reason.
\nThe second reason is because I am French, based in Italy, but I wanted Supercut to be international: the name had to be easy to remember in every language. I also wanted it to be a bit different from the usual \u201cFabric Store\u201d names (so many fabrics shop with Fabric name \ud83d\ude09 \u201cSupercut \u2013 Online Shop \u2013 Good looking fabrics\u201d is the complete name.<\/p>\n

What types of fabrics do you sell?
\n<\/u><\/em>It is a mix of classic fabrics brands such as Liberty, Japanese or French designers and high end Italian fabrics from the best fabrics manufacturers in the world. <\/u>When I \u201clanded\u201d in Italy in June 2011 with my husband and our two little boys aged 1 and 3 years old, none of us spoke a word of Italian and I suddenly had lots of free time: what a great occasion for me to do as much sewing as I ever wanted! Unfortunately, I was really surprised that I couldn’t find any nice fabric shops in the country of fashion and had to order all my fabrics from France.
\nAs I was looking for a self-employed and home based job I thought it would be a great idea to create my dream fabric shop for the Italian Market.
\nThen I discovered that we were based in the heart of the world best fabrics manufacturers … and I had the fantastic opportunity to propose to a larger international and professional audience some of the best materials a sewer could dream for at very attractive prices!
\nToday most Supercut’s fabrics come from the most famous fashion brands \u2013 we are not authorized to give the names brands on each fabric in the shop but we can share our secret here that lots of them are from Etro, Vivienne Westwood, Martin Margiela, Marc Jacobs, Dsquared2, Loro Piana, Bottega Veneta, Albini and from some of the Italian’s best silk and wool manufacturers. We also have beautiful jersey and denim made on vintage machines in Japan.
\nAll these amazing fabrics are in limited quantities and I choose to change the stock as often as possible.
\nI am also an official distributor of Premax, one of the greatest sewing scissors manufacturers in the world. Premax is a consortium of Italian artisans, based in the mountains near lake Como, and they produce scissors since 300 years. I have a huge collection \u2013 I haven’t even uploaded all the collection in the shop yet!<\/p>\n

What fabric do you recommend for the schnittchen-pattern Katja?
\n<\/u><\/em>Linen or wool jerseys depending on the season, lace, but also Breton stripes jersey (as I am Breton I am a stripes addicted!) … there are so many possibilities!<\/p>\n
