I like the Metra blazer, don't love it. It's so easy to dress up or down depending on dress, jeans or pants and accessories . . . and so adaptable to many different knit fabrics. I like your blocking and the styling you've done, perfect with the dress. Thanks for bringing it to us.

Love this with the dress without shortening. It fits your shoulders which makes the silhouette very trim. I really did like the black and white horizontal stripe shirt with it. Yes to the dress though. Good job. And, yup, you did inspire me to take a second look. Color is great on you too. You hit a number of boxes today. Now to go see what Izzy did.

A very fun blazer in colors that are so pretty on you! I've found that some polyesters are not awful - even high-end clothing in the stores is sometimes made of a high-quality polyester or polyester in combination with other textiles to add durability or ease of care - probably about the quality of the fabric a lot of times. Looking forward to seeing how your length modification works out - I was always trying to cover up my backside (for 50 years!) and then discovered that sometimes a shorter length actually looked better, which was a real surprise! We can still be pleasantly surprised!

Hi Michelle! I love your new Metra Blazer! I think that shortening it is a good idea for you, but it looks awesome as is ( especially with the dress. I have made two of them. One out of a performance nylon fabric and one out of summer weight ponte fabric from Joanns that is rayon not polyester. I love them both and I think you will love yours too!

Fun blazer! This was a great collab. I also had the “aha” moment recently that I like things to hit just above my butt. I’ve spent years thinking I wanted them to cover it, but that just leads to all of the awkward bunching right at the top of the butt.
@MichelleSewsAgain
@MichelleSewsAgain 5 месяцев назад
I don't know if it was an "aha" for me LOL - my natural inclination is to go longer! But I'm trying to listen to feedback and make adjustments - we'll see how I like it!!

I really liked your review of this pattern, Michelle. This pattern has been on my “must make” list for quite a while. I agree with all your observations about the jacket. Your stylings were spot on and very flattering for you. I’d love to see any follow up you do with shortening and re-color blocking the pattern. I often too struggle with my need to wear longer and “cover up” and what sometimes seems like an accidental shorter length that might crop up that Surprise!….actually seems very flattering. Please post if you remake.

The jacket looks so beautiful with your dress and also with your shirt. The color is awesome. I have many Love Notions patterns and I have made many of them and like them. But, I am not really a short jacket kind of girl, so I don't own the Metra Blazer pattern, I just don't think it's me. Saying that, I really think it looks great on you.

I've made this jacket once so far..I am 5'3" so have to agree that a shorter length is probably more flattering and at the original or shorter length I think i will find it more flattering with a one button closure.. that said.. I think this length still looks quite good on you 😊

@gerrysiebert8639
@gerrysiebert8639 5 месяцев назад
Good pattern review. Havent made any "indie" patterns. I love your colour combo. Agree that colour blocking collar lining would be more effective because of the way the blazer sits, hard to notice side panels. Great styled with dress and leggings. Im one of those who is more comfortable with a blazer that buttons up, so i dont think this would be a pattern I'd rver make.

This blazer hits the mark when it comes to looking more professional while retaining your wild and crazy style. I think it’s a winner for you and you should make another! Yes, try shortening it (I have the same bum problem and shortening is slimming). I liked your metro best with the dress. Overall, this is a brilliant solution for “professional” needs, a flattering second layer, and style. I don’t dislike your color blocking. It’s cool that it’s not the same as everyone else. Thanks for a great video.

@donnaschindlbeck7457 5 месяцев назад
I love your new Metra Blazer with the dress Michelle. As far as wearing it with a top and slacks, I would use a shorter top or do a partial tuck so it doesn’t cut you in half, giving you a 1/3 & 2/3 proportion. I have a bit of a tummy but when wearing layers I am not self conscious when doing a front tuck. I love the bright orange!

It looks great! I haven't made it, but I'm interested. I have seen Whitney from TomKat Stitchery wear hers and I think it's her favorite Love Notions pattern. I have made the Sloane Sweater from them and I do love the fit on that one. I have to say that sometimes when I finish a garment I have to put it to the side for a couple of days before I like it. I don't know why. Happy sewing!

The shoulder line on the blazer is great. As I try to fit my older body, I have realized that shoulder line makes a difference...either make it a real dropped shoulder or the actual.length of the shoulder...I've looked at the Metra for along time...my lifestyle doesn't call for another similar one (I have a Silverton fitted to me) I like your colorblocked side panels. What about adding two color.blocked viewers on the back lower hem (like on a mens double vent blazer) in neon orange to come out over your curve You've got side, pocket, and viewers make 3 features

Looks amazing with the dress and the slacks. I agree with you on the colour blocking but glad you highlighted the side panels because it makes it easier to see what is going on with the pattern. Looks like a nice elevated but comfortable layering piece. I would love to see you in your next version with a comparison to this version and how you feel about the changes you make.

There are a few RU-vidrs that have done complete sew alongs of this pattern - just do a quick search and you'll see a few pop up 😊

I made it, and I struggled in the same places you did. I watched Lifting Pins and Needles for help with the pockets. I want to love it, but I just don't,

I saw that Karina had a sew along but I didn't want to watch all the easy parts just to get to what I needed. I wouldn't say I LOVE this jacket - but it is a good staple piece (for me) to have in my wardrobe. Especially for trips to the office. I'm sorry you don't love yours!
