Posada Doublet Tutorial
Hello all, so I have been asked to show how I am currently making Jaskier's posada doublet. I will try to keep it as simple as possible but please feel free to ask questions.

The fabric I use it a medium weight cotton canvas 1/?
Some steps, I had to search for resources for you to use as some things I just know how to do from experience/making other doublets. I have tried to keep it as easy as possible. 2/?

These are the pictures I am using as reference : Image
I picked my fabric with a slight yellowish tone because netflix uses a yellow filter on many of the scenes (I also preferred that color personally) so you will notice my fabric doesn't match the reference pictures for that reason. Here's the color with the yellow filter 3/? Image

This is all the pinning of the sleeve body to the cuff. Allegedly this results in lovely gathers around the wrist as you’re #sewing them into place. I can’t ever seem to get them to come out cleanly, but I’m learning. A cuff pinned to the shirt ...

#Covid Expert: If you wear a #mask & you get infected, you're much more likely to get less sick & even be asymptomatic. #WearAMask: It can save you AND your neighbors. /thread
Researchers tested homemade #masks & found they can be quite effective IF they fit well. The combo that performed close to N95 material: cotton+2 layers of chiffon (evening gowns!) or natural silk. They're more static-y. #sewing #WearAMask sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/…
Using cotton+flannel or a cotton quilt with cotton-polyester batting were also highly effective. But even small gaps can reduce their filtering efficiency. With studies showing people who wear #masks get LESS SICK & often remain asymptomatic, it's vital to #WearAMask.

Hey @SimplySewing_ I like to make you aware of heavyhandesness and rudeness by your magazine admins who run a what seemingly looks a general page on Facebook for fans of @sewingbee #gbsb and #sewing in general, but clearly is not. 1/n
Your admins remove posts from sewers using patterns from other sources claiming their post is Promotion of other magazines, supposedly breaking page rule 10. Even posts critical of other sources’ patterns was deemed promotion🧐... 2/n

I then wanted to post feedback on why my post had been removed, and what my view is on ‘promotion’ in general, but this not even reached the Fb fan page as blocked from the outset by your admins whi seemingly are unable to cope with genuine community feedback 3/n

Hey @DeutscheBank, you make a decision: make a #PositiveImpact to the fight against the #ClimateCrisis, or continue to support fossil fuels! A #Thread in english. #divest #followthemoney #gofossilfree #dbagm #BanksAgainstFuture
In 2019, the german climate activist @luisamneubauer said at the annual general meeting “It is the Deutsche Bank, which like no other bank, is stealing our future.” 💯 Whereupon CEO #Sewing announced "fewer projects to finance fossil fuels". manager-magazin.de/unternehmen/ba… 2/12
In order to avoid a similar situation this year, a PR campaign was rolled out in advance and now advertises in a press release with "ambitious sustainability targets". db.com/newsroom_news/… 3/12

Hey, @DeutscheBank, ihr steht vor der Wahl: #PositiverBeitrag zum Kampf gegen die #Klimakrise - oder weiter fossile Energien fördern und damit Mittäter des Klimawandels sein. Ein #Thread.

2019 sagte @Luisamneubauer auf der Hauptversammlung noch: "Es ist die Deutsche Bank wie keine andere Bank, die uns die Zukunft klaut." 💯
Worauf Vorstandvorsitzender #Sewing ankündigte, "weniger Projekte mit fossilen Energieträgern zu finanzieren". manager-magazin.de/unternehmen/ba… 2/12
Um sich Ähnliches dieses Jahr zu ersparen, hat die @DeutscheBank im Vorfeld eine PR-Kampagne ausgerollt und wirbt nun in einer Pressemitteilung mit „ambitionierten Nachhaltigkeitszielen“. db.com/newsroom_news/… 3/12
