Chapter 025 I'll Make It For You
Liu Xinyu looked at Zhang Hongyun who was shouting and smiled slightly.
The design drawing shown to Zhang Hongyun was just a hasty sketch, and it was just a slight processing of the clothing style of this era. Unexpectedly, Zhang Hongyun was so surprised.
Xin Yu used to be a well-known designer in the clothing industry. Each of her designs could bring considerable profits. The designs she created after she became famous will definitely not be available in this era. Even if they are just exercises from her student days, they are incompatible with this era.
.
Liu Xinyu doesn't want to do anything shocking, so her current plan is to make appropriate improvements to the existing clothing styles, adding some new elements to details such as collars, skirts, hems, and pockets.
The design drawing in Zhang Hongyun's hand is a women's short-sleeved shirt, specially designed for Zhang Hongyun.
Although the design was hastily drawn, it was not sloppy. Zhang Hongyun's figure, face shape and personality were fully considered, and some effort was put into the collar, placket and cuffs.
After a brief moment of excitement, Zhang Hongyun gently placed the drawing on the table and sighed longly: "It looks very good, but Tailor Lin definitely can't make it. Even if he can make it, he probably won't be willing to do it. It's too labor-intensive.
Got it!"
Liu Xinyu looked at Zhang Hongyun in surprise. She had never thought about the issue of labor.
However, Liu Xinyu never thought about going to Tailor Lin. Her idea had always been to start with herself and Zhang Hongyun, so that everyone would know that she could not only tailor but also make beautifully designed clothes.
She doesn't plan to work in the fields to compete for work points, and she doesn't want to be like Liu Xinyu who is sitting on nothing. Before planning her future, of course she must use her best work to support herself.
Liu Xinyu made a few strokes on the design sketch with a pencil, stopped and looked at it and added two more strokes. Then she nodded with satisfaction, turned around and Zhang Hongyun said with a smile: "Why do you have to ask Tailor Lin to do it?"
Zhang Hongyun looked at Liu Xinyu in confusion: "Don't you remember? The only person in our Minqin Brigade who can cut is Tailor Lin. If you don't find him, you have to go to the town. The tailors in the town charge almost twice as much as Tailor Lin.
.”
Liu Xinyu pointed at herself: "I can!"
"You know how?" Zhang Hongyun pointed at Liu Xinyu in disbelief.
"I can!" Liu Xinyu nodded with certainty, and after thinking for a while, she added: "Okay, I'll do it for you."
After saying that, he stood up and pulled Zhang Hongyun into his bedroom.
Liu Xinyu's bedroom is much more "luxurious" than Liu Qingshan's. Not only does it have several more pieces of furniture, it also has three more large items: a Phoenix bicycle, a Yan brand sewing machine, and a
Radio with red light sign.
Uncovering the old homespun cloth covering the sewing machine, Liu Xinyu glanced at the bedroom and frowned slightly: "The lighting in the bedroom is not good, so I have to move the sewing machine to the living room."
Zhang Hongyun followed Liu Xinyu's instructions blankly, helped Liu Xinyu move the sewing machine out of the bedroom, and found a place with the best light in the main room to put it.
Liu Xinyu found all the tailoring tools such as a ruler, ruler, scissors, and drawing powder and put them on the table. She glanced at the small bag that Zhang Hongyun had been carrying on her body.
Zhang Hongyun subconsciously covered her small bag and took two steps back toward the door.
Liu Xinyu couldn't help but purse her lips and smile. She was just looking at it. How could she try her hand on Zhang Hongyun's piece of cloth?
How about trying the piece of cloth Zhang Hongliang gave her yesterday?
Forget it, it’s not like we don’t have cloth at home!
When Liu Qingshan was alive, whenever new floral cloth or fine cotton cloth came from the supply and marketing cooperative, he would buy a piece of it.
Liu Xinyu went back to the bedroom and found a piece of white cotton cloth from the closet, spread it out on the table, picked up the ruler and paint powder and was about to start.
Of course she remembered her own size. Just when the painting powder was about to touch the cloth, Liu Xinyu's hand suddenly stopped.
All she had in her mind was Xin Yu's size, not Xin Yu's size.
Xin Yu is 1.68 meters tall, while Liu Xinyu is only 1.62 meters tall. Although the difference is only 6 centimeters, the difference in stature is huge.
If Liu Xinyu were to cut it according to Xin Yu's size, it would definitely be a failure.
Fortunately, I remembered it in time, otherwise, I would have directly missed the opportunity to achieve self-sufficiency and would have made a fool of myself.
"Sister Xinyu, are you kidding?" Liu Xinyu's pause aroused Zhang Hongyun's doubts.
"Suddenly I remembered that not only had I grown taller recently, but I was also a little bigger here. The previous size could no longer be used." Liu Xinyu put down the ruler and drawing powder in her hand, picked up the soft ruler and handed it to Zhang Hongyun, instructing Zhang Hongyun to help measure the size, while not
She patted her chest shyly.
Zhang Hongyun laughed out loud.
With the size in mind, Liu Xinyu drew the lines cleanly and cut, and soon a whole piece of cloth was cut into several pieces.
With the cheerful "click-click" sound of the sewing machine, a short-sleeved shirt was ready in less than an hour and a half.
The small stand-up collar around the fungus, the puff sleeves, and the embroidery on the chest and small pockets are all carefully crafted.
Seeing Liu Xinyu's skillful movements, Zhang Hongyun's eyes were full of stars, wishing that this dress was made for her.
It's a pity that compared to Liu Xinyu, not only is she a head shorter, but the little bun on her chest has just begun to grow.
This dress was made according to Liu Xinyu's figure, so it would definitely not fit her, so I could only sigh with regret.
Although this dress was far from Liu Xinyu's requirements, looking at the first dress made in this era and looking at Zhang Hongyun's envious eyes, Liu Xinyu still felt a sense of satisfaction in her heart.
Of course, you have to try on the clothes before you can tell how good they are. Liu Xinyu went into the bedroom and put on the new clothes.
As soon as she put on her clothes, she heard Zhang Hongyun gasp: "It's so beautiful! Sister Xinyu, this collar is different from the one in the picture. It's so beautiful! I want something like this too. Sister Xinyu,
Please do it for me quickly!"
As he spoke, he took out the piece of cloth that he had been keeping in his arms from his bag and stuffed it into Liu Xinyu's hand.
"Okay, I'll do it for you! This is calico and you don't need to embroider it, so it will be done faster." Zhang Hongyun's impatient mood made Liu Xinyu a little excited. She simply didn't even change her clothes, and went back to the main room with Zhang Hongyun in new clothes.
He picked up the soft ruler and was about to measure Zhang Hongyun when he heard a knock on the door from outside the yard: "Xinyu, are you at home?"
Another familiar voice!
A face and a name popped up in Liu Xinyu's mind, and she felt a little helpless. She gave Zhang Hongyun an apologetic smile, raised her voice and said "Yes", put down the tape ruler and walked out of the main room.
Of course Zhang Hongyun was not happy to be interrupted suddenly while she was having fun. She pouted and followed Liu Xinyu in a low voice, "Who is it? It's so annoying!"
Liu Xinyu shook her head helplessly: "My classmate, Gu Jincheng."
