The Sewing Time Machine: A blouse named 'Secretary001'
The Sewing Time MachineWednesday, January 27, 2010A blouse named 'Secretary001'Here is my next project, or the inspiration for my next project. I'm no expert on the matter but this reminds me of a 40's pencil pushing office blouse, which is why I named it Secretary001.It looks to me like all the control has been shifted into side darts which were then gathered into the side seams. The sleeve looks like a very short kimono or dolman. Anyways, I got to work on the PatternMaster and this is my first muslin.
I'm not happy because I look like a bag lady!
So I learned that when zero waist darts are selected, the slack is not picked up anywhere else - not in the side seam and not in other darts. I'll have to manually shift all the control into the side dart. And that will be my second muslin....Posted by Marie-Anne at 6:28 PMLabels: blouse, fitting, PatternMaster Boutique0 comments:Post a CommentNewer Post Older Post HomeSubscribe to: Post Comments (Atom)PagesHomeAbout MeMarie-AnneWhen I'm not cleaning, cooking, or working, I'm going back in time....with my sewing machine!View my complete profileThis WeekChris' jacket is lined and it looks great.

i know it's slightly silly and cheesy, but we like to leave little notes for the other to stumble upon.
those little reminders are nice.
My new post-it notes do this crazy concertina thing when I lift up the top one. Exciting office supplies!
Today I had lunch with my grandmother and mum but forgot my camera. I'd like to take more photos of people, but I'm shy about taking my camera out.

In the first part of the book, Mr. Alexander discusses the process by which a form is adapted to the context of human needs and demands that has called it into being. He shows that such an adaptive process will be successful only if it proceeds piecemeal instead of all at once. In the second part, Mr. Alexander presents a method by which the designer may bring his full creative imagination into play, and yet avoid the traps of irrelevant preconception. He shows that, whenever a problem is stated, it is possible to ignore existing concepts and to create new concepts, out of the structure of the problem itself, which do correspond correctly to what he calls the subsystems of the adaptive process. By treating each of these subsystems as a separate subproblem, the designer can translate the new concepts into form. The form, because of the process, will be well-adapted to its context, non-arbitrary, and correct.

NOTE: Flickr makes a .jpg of uploaded files. The Jpeg process reduces actuance. The original scan has more detail than the .jpg file and in turn the original scan has less detail than is on the film. The film probably has 4 to 9 times (2 squared to 3 squared) the detail as you can see if made with a cracker jack lens and top rated film.
1. The bus was about 185 meters away from the camera.
2. The film does not have the reddish/maroon look that you see here. Scanning with the Kodachrome film type selection instead of the proper Color Positive selection miscolored the scan, my fault
Photos taken in this set were to test various stock lenses on some of my cameras. I started out with old 120/620 folders then added some modern 120 filmed examples. There will also be a few 35mm and 127 tests. You will need to open these up to their original size to see how good or bad the lens is. Also please see the type of scanner that was used because not all the scanners were able to scan at the same resolution.
Unless specifically noted, over time I used several films for these lens tests. Various Kodak and Fuji 100 speed reversal films and Fuji Velvia 50 speed were used. The difference in sharpness of the film was far less than the difference in the lenses.
Please take into consideration that when Flickr jpegs the uploaded tiff file some of the detail is lost so the original is sharper than what you can see.

The Pictures...
These recently uploaded pictures have no artistic value. They were just uploaded to be representative of color picture recording during about 85+ years that I was able to take color pictures, mostly slides at first. Unlike in today’s digital world it took time, money and effort to make a color slide. We took fewer pictures back then, trying to stretch resources, but some sere still frivolous.
I'm 97 (2016). I'm about at the end of my ability to continue posting. The ratio of today’s digital pictures that are kept for any length of time and/or printed is much less than the film photos taken in days past. History will be lost. Meanwhile you get to be bored by some old Kodachromes, Anscochromes, a Dufaycolor and perhaps an old black & white or so.
These recently uploaded pictures have no artistic value. They were just uploaded to be representative of color picture recording during about 85+ years that I was able to take pictures, mostly slides at first. Unlike in today’s digital world it took time, money and effort to make a color slide. We took fewer pictures back then, trying to stretch resources, but some sere still frivolous. The first picture I remember taking was in the mid-1920s when my mother's sailor boyfriend brought an overseas camera to San Pedro.
The Camera: Rolleicord V, ca. 1954
I used a used but good condition Rolleicord V ca 1954. It has a single coated Schneider Kreuznach 75mm F:3.5 Xenar four element lens. I bought a second one so I could make medium format 3D (Stereo) slides. The two like cameras are less than 100 serial numbers apart but the second lens is not up to the quality of this one. Using the USAF1951 chart this lens gives over 60 lp/mm at F: 11.
The film: Fuji Provia 100 or Kodak E100:
This was shot on Provia 100 or Kodak E100 in 120 size. To scan with a 35mm dedicated film scanner I first used a Mamiya Super Slide punch. The film center was then mounted in 127 sized slide mounts which have the same external dimensions as 35mm slides. The surrounding mount has thinner sides than 35mm. This does give a 35mm scanner a chance to scan all film instead of having some mount blocking and reducing the amount of picture taken.
The Scanner, Minolta 5400 II:
The Minolta 5400 was advertised at 5400 PPI and actually gave out not only a scan of that size but also of that resolution. Testing was done using a 1951USAF glass microscope resolution bought from Edmond Scientific. When scanning a chart at maximum resolution one has to be concerned with registration between the lines on the chart and the pixel placement of the sensor. Exact registration is a hit and miss, re-trial exercise. With film the scanned bits of silver and dye clumps are randomly scattered without the need to have perfect alignment.
Note on reverse (title).
Circa 1917, soldiers from an unidentified formation man-handle a 24cm schwerer Flügel-Minenwerfer Albrecht towards the front-lines. The range of the weapon was around two-thousand metres, about the same as the British and French heavy mortars of the same calibre.

A bunch of quirkyness for this Friday. A Post-it Note found on the car next to mine at the Starbucks in Stafford, VA.

I am just getting back into cross stitch and embroidery after a 10 year break. The new work out there is so interesting and inspiring that I have decided to create my own series of cross stitch pictures based on things that I say to my son. Every time I utter one I realise that I am turning in to my mother!
Note one is "Don't say what say pardon" , charted at www.stitchpoint.com.

This picture was taken about a week after Steve Jobs’ death at the Palo Alto, CA(his home) Apple store . The storefront was covered with post-it-notes written to him, thanking him for his contributions. Some of them were surprisingly poignant. As a big time Apple fan, I found it interesting and sadly, sweet. (see another shot below)
