To do that, I think we need to be able to either retain him for several years or think he will significantly increase our WS chances.
I don't think we can re-sign him (he's a FA after the season) unless we don't keep Pujols (but that's another debate). If Dewitt is willing to pay him $11Mil this year (also doubtful), I think he helps our chances enough this year to warrant slightly overpaying for him though.
Forget reality, if we had him instead of Theriot, it would be a sick upgrade.

Playing Diabetes Doctor, for Real
We got word earlier this year that the American Diabetes Association was trying out a new training program dubbed a "patient simulator," where docs can practice on not-so-real people with diabetes (PWDs), trying out everything from assessing conditions to ordering lab tests and meds. And they get graded on their decision-making!
Medical simulation is actually quite the trend, with a company called SciMed even launching a "virtual diabetes institute" last year.
Having some actual expertise…

MF Interview: MINI USA Head of Marketing Tom Salkowsky
While at the NYIAS a few weeks back we had a chance to catch-up with MINI USA Head of Marketing Tom Salkowsky about all things marketing. Given that NYIAS was the culmination of MINI's Final Test Test Drive contest campaign, we spent some time discussing the program and the final output of it, the limited edition MINI DeLuxe package. The package, designed by college sophomore Alex Coyle was chosen by MINI fans as well as MINI USA to be produced in a very limited quantity (56 total). We also go into MINI marketing in general and even what we can expect throughout the year.

Some people look at me now and don't recognize the smaller, more healthy version of Mike Clemons. Others look REALLY hard as if trying to make sure that I really am "Big Mike" Clemons, the overweight drummer who's toured with Usher, Israel & New Breed and others! But regardless of the initial looks, the next question is either, "how'd you lose all that weight?" or "are you sick?" While my journey towards a healthier version of my life came from the disciplined exercising and making healthier food choices, truth be told, the catalyst for this journey is that I was sick, but just didn't know it!
I didn't realize how sick I was until my wife noticed how much I was going to the bathroom. As far as the stereotype goes, some men have a hard time being convinced to go to the doctor; I realized I actually was one of THOSE guys. I ignored the problem and explained away going to the bathroom so much with the rationale, "well I'm drinking more water because I'm thirsty, so of course I'm going to the bathroom more." But when I really got tired of getting up to go to the bathroom 3-4 times a night, I finally decided to listen to my wife and make the appointment.
I couldn't believe it when the test results came back…I had Type 2 diabetes! Diabetes is a serious disease that can cause blindness, amputation of toes, feet, and legs, and even death, and I wanted NO part of that! I was like this is for real and I knew it was time for me to make a lifestyle change. In addition to taking my medicine, I started off with small changes to my diet. I ate less pasta, white rice, and for the most part ate less sweets. Apparently I wasn't taking it seriously enough because when I went back to the doctor a few months later, my blood sugar levels were lower, but still not low enough. Months later I had another visit. I remember feeling horrible that day; light headed, sluggish, and soooooo scared. I said to myself, "ok that's it, I've got to do something different!"
That "scared straight" moment was my point of no return. I took it to the next level and did what I was supposed to. I was even more committed to eating right, I started working out and focused on my health and began losing weight and feeling better again. My next visit was better, I was doing well and was so happy. Then one day I ran out of pills and I "decided" I didn't need them since diet and exercise seemed to being working out JUST fine. That was the wrong move. My blood sugar levels went up again! My doctor broke it down for me and my wife who there supporting me. He said, "if you don't do all you can and take your pills you will just make it worse on yourself." His words affected me, but the fact that my wife was angry with me changed my life. Once we got home, we had a long hard talk.
She said:
"Listen if you want to die then do that on you own dime. You have a family that loves you and right now you are being selfish to think about yourself and not your wife, kids and other people that love you. You have to be an example to everyone and yourself. It's not our fault that you have this but you can control it if you do what you're supposed to, so stop it and do what you have to do!"
That's pretty much the edited version of what she said, but you get the point and so did I! Her words were the "tough love" and reality check I needed. She was right. If I eventually died because of complications from my diabetes, who would support my family, especially considering the fact that I applied for life insurance and was denied because my numbers were so high. It hit me and I realized how much diabetes could really ruin my life and that of my family if I didn't get it in check. So I did.
Like a drug addict determined to get off drugs, I went cold turkey and stopped doing anything that could keep me from being the healthy husband and father I knew I was supposed to be. I had a boot camp approach and dedicated myself to a "lifestyle" rather than a diet or weight loss plan. I mean I went to the extreme on everything. I worked out at the gym two times a day, ate only brown rice and wheat pasta, if any, and no fried foods. Knowing my personality, the only thing that worked for me was to admit I was too undisciplined not to "cheat" and eat unhealthy foods; I told myself if I ate anything bad I was going to die. Now for some people, that may have been too much, but I was on a path headed for an early death if I didn't turn my life around with a quickness, and there would be no life insurance for my family. I had a second chance to change my life and I was going to make sure it worked!
Today I'm healthy, fit and still working on being the best I can be. It's not a diet, it's a lifestyle change, and I'm VERY happy about how my life has changed. My family is proud of me too. My youngest son likes my muscles and thinks I'm the coolest. I don't force strict eating on my kids, but I give them healthy choices, cut down on things like fast food, and cook more at home where I know the quality of the food and how it's prepared. I want them to see healthy habits at home so they can live a healthy life and eventually teach their kids when they get older. My experience has taught them how food and health are connected, and gives new meaning to the phrase "you are what you eat". Now I eat healthy so I am healthy!
I remember the days when I wasn't healthy. I was fat. I was uncomfortable. I felt bad about myself emotionally and my body felt like a kind of prison. I know what every fat person goes through, feels, and struggles with. Even with as much career success as I had, deep down I knew I wasn't living the life I was supposed to be living. If you have never been fat you might not understand, but I do. If you are dealing with obesity like I was, you can overcome it and make a lifestyle change to positively affect the quality of your life forever. It's a choice that ultimately only you, and you alone, must make.
It's a choice I had to make. I didn't want to feel "sick" anymore or head down a path to an early grave…I didn't want to make my wife a widow or have my kids have to grow up fatherless. A few years ago I was on that path, but now I'm in MY best shape ever and it feels WONDERFUL. I like me even more now, and want to inspire others who feel like they can't get fit and live a healthy life. I think God let me learn how fulfilling life can be through this experience, and if you are overweight, I want you to experience that victory too. My life is changed forever and I am happy about it, so remember, the longer you wait to lose weight, the longer your new life is on hold…YOU CAN DO THIS!
-"Big" Mike Clemons

[ << ] [ < ] [ Home ] [ > ] [ >> ]
6.a. Network Management
If you and your computer are always on the move, you may not always have an ethernet cable or plugged in or an access point available. Also, you may want networking to automatically work when an ethernet cable is plugged in or an access point is found.
Here you can find some tools that help you manage this.
Note: This document only talks about ifplugd, but there are alternatives such as netplug. netplug is a lightweight alternative to ifplugd, but it relies on your kernel network drivers working correctly, and many drivers do not.
6.b. ifplugd
ifplugd is a daemon that starts and stops interfaces when an ethernet cable is inserted or removed. It can also manage detecting association to Access Points or when new ones come in range.
Code Listing 2.1: Installing ifplugd
# emerge sys-apps/ifplugd
Configuration for ifplugd is fairly straightforward too. The configuration file is held in /etc/conf.d/net. Run man ifplugd for details on the available variables. Also, see /usr/share/doc/netifrc-*/net.example.bz2 for more examples.
Code Listing 2.2: Sample ifplug configuration
(Replace eth0 with the interface to be monitored) ifplugd_eth0="..." (To monitor a wireless interface) ifplugd_eth0="--api-mode=wlan"
In addition to managing multiple network connections, you may want to add a tool that makes it easy to work with multiple DNS servers and configurations. This is very handy when you receive your IP address via DHCP. Simply emerge openresolv.
Code Listing 2.3: Installing openresolv
# emerge openresolv
See man resolvconf to learn more about its features.

So everything "god" says is true?

It doesn't matter if one believes or not. The definition doesn't change.
Think about it scientifically. There is overwhelming evidence that evolution exists in some form, yet many don't believe in evolution. Their belief does not change what the overwhelming evidence shows.

The Palette ProjectParadigm ShiftOn 2014 I've imposed myself a challenge: "I should draw a doodle a day, during the whole year".The reason why I took such a challenge was because I wasn't happy with how much I created on the year before, on 2013. Before starting the challenge I would procrastinate instead of drawing, I would wait for some magic sort of inspiration to come in order to draw anything at all. That was the paradigm, the standards of my work flow. After concluding the 365 Days of Doodles project I had a new paradigm: I can create one black&white drawing everyday.What I want to do now in 2015 is changing the paradigm again: I want to add color palettes to my doodles. Seven, to be more specific.

Guide to success
By Whitney Selover
While it seems as though the winter just won't end outside, inside my office it feel like the summer season is just around the corner.
Yesterday, I finished preparing the official Hall of Fame Weekend Inductee Guides. Once our class of inductees is complete, I get started pulling together what becomes the Inductee's and their family's HOFW bible. The binder that Doug Harvey, Whitey Herzog and Andre Dawson will receive today contains everything they need to know about the July 23-26 Hall of Fame Weekend in Cooperstown.
Inductees are major superstars on the baseball diamond, but they are much like us when it comes to things off the field. They need to know what to expect, where they will be staying, who can come with them to the events, when they should arrive/depart, what to wear and where they need to be – and the one-inch binder arriving on their doorstep today will answer all of those questions.
Being inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame is the highest honor a baseball player can achieve, but put yourself in their shoes for a minute. Take a quick second and look at your life: In your career, how many people have you worked with, how many people work for you now, how many people have influenced your career? Socially, how many people are you friends with (including Facebook!)? How many people are in your softball league, make up your neighborhood, are in your parish, share your love for volunteering at the SPCA? Personally, how many people make up your family, your extended family (don't forget those 3rd cousins!), your wife's family, those friends that feel like family? Take that number and multiply it by 100 and that is the number of people that want to join Doug, Whitey and Andre on their big day in Cooperstown in July. Imagine trying to sort through, make accommodations for, provide tickets to, and ensure a great vacation come July, for all those people on your list! Well, that is where I come in.
As the director of special events at the Hall of Fame, I am fortunate to work with every inductee and help ease the pressures of being the "host." Over the next couple of months, not only will I answer the "what do I wear" for Doug, Whitey and Andre but I will answer it for the hundreds of family and friends who come along for the ride. Organizing their "list" becomes a personal and intimate process for every inductee. Ask any Hall of Fame Member and they will tell you that their Induction Ceremony is one of the top moments in their lives. Making sure the people who have been there since Little League, or the ones that helped them break into the majors, or the ones that gave them just what they needed to get through a slump or overcome an injury, or the ones who believed in them through thick and thin… Helping those people witness the big day is my job.
Even thought I work at the Baseball Hall of Fame, I do not claim to be a baseball expert, but I'm fairly certain that Doug, Whitey or Andre didn't become one of baseball's elite with the help of a binder – nor did the process begin when FedEx showed up. But then again, we're just trying to plan for Hall of Fame Weekend, not a Hall of Fame Member career.
If we were, I bet even Staples doesn't carry binders that could plan for careers as gigantically successful, overwhelmingly influential and exceptionally outstanding as Doug, Whitey or Andre's. And that, my friends, is why they make up the Induction Class of 2010.
Whitney Selover is the director of special events and travel at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.

Webinar Series 40 UI Design
This article is companion for the Series 40 UI design webinars. It contains solutions and proposals for the webinar exercises and discusses open issues which could not be solved during the webinar Q/A session and covers both parts:
- part 1, 28.06.2012 and 04.07.2012
- part 2, 10.07.2012 and 13.07.2012
Series 40
Webinar Series 40 Full Touch UI Style Guide, part 1, 28.06.2012 and 04.07.2012
How would this screen look in Series 40 Full Touch?
Create a sign-in view
It should contain:
- Username
- Password
- Setting for auto-fill password
- Forgot password & help
Proposal 1:
Proposal 2
The second proposal has everything available in the view, but it is not likely that it will work flawlessly with Touch & Type devices. However, since the additional elements in the view (Login button and Help hyperlink) are more prominent, it is expected to reduce interaction bumpers if the design is optimized for Full Touch.
Which component would you use to pick one of the following?
- Monday
- Tuesday
- Wednesday
- Thursday
- Friday
How would you replace a single choice item (aka switch)?
You may find the following layout from a native application. Unfortunately, the single choice item is not available in the LCDUI. |
Which views can have a button? Are there any limitations?
- Alerts can have 0 – 3 buttons. Position and layout are predefined.
- StringItem in a Form screen can be dressed as a button or as a labeled button. It is only possible to show one button per row.
- The CustomItem in Form screen can host a button or a button group.
- The full screen canvas can contain buttons. The 4th image shows custom surround-shaped push-buttons with icons and with additional text below the push button. If the button is based on icons it is many times beneficial to add text explaining the action being mapped to the button.
- A canvas with a custom toolbar, as shown in the 5th image. Do not place more than 5 items in a toolbar.
Open issues from Q/A
What happens with the keypad if BT keyboard is detected?
Regarding connecting a Bluetooth enabled device to a full touch series 40 and getting input from the BT device into a custom 3rd party Java application, the following rules apply:
- Direct connection of a BT device to a Java application is only possible if the BT device supports the Bluetooth Profiles that are coming with the JSR-82 (the Bluetooth API):
- SDAP - Service Discovery Application Profile
- RFCOMM - Serial Cable Emulation Protocol
- L2CAP - Logical Link Control and Adaptation Protocol
- OBEX - Generic Object Exchange Profile (GOEP) profile on top of RFCOMM and TCP
- The Virtual Keyboard API does not provide any editor functionality. It merely launches and controls the virtual keyboard provided by the platform on low level Canvas and GameCanvas Components and returns into the application the key that was pressed with the help of the keyPressed(int key) method. So theoretically, one can call remotely the keyPressed(int key) method directly with a value that matches the integer value of the key that is supposed to be pressed.
Can text be formatted, e.g. rich text formatting?
Regarding StringItem one can change the font. Fonts have three attributes: Style (bold/italic), size (large or small) and face (monospace, proportional and system). One cannot change the color of a StringItem.
It is not possible to format the text in TextBox screen.
Canvas allows free formatting.
If formatting is needed for certain components, please have look into LWUIT if this is suitable for you.
How is the image in an ImageItem being cropped in landscape orientation?
Here is the example image:
When the Layout is set to LAYOUT_LEFT or LAYOUT_CENTER, this is the result in portrait mode:
When the Layout is set to LAYOUT_LEFT or LAYOUT_CENTER, this is the result in landscape mode:
The cropping matches the requested layout.
How can you do custom gestures yourself?
1. It is possible to use the existing gestures and build your custom gesture on top of it; here 2 examples:
- if you want to make your application to sense a figure of "8" on your screen, use a "drag" gesture and use the x/y values for your pattern recognition
- if you want to use triple touch, e.g. to mark the entire text, use 3 single taps for your gesture recognition
Tap drag and release can also be implemented outside the Gesture API, with the standard LCDUI low level Canvas components.
2. It is possible to use the sensor API to e.g. get direct x/y/z information of the phone. this way, you can e.g. sense the position changes of the phone to detect if the user is writing a figure of "8" into the air (with the phone in her hand). The phone can detect accelerations between -2g and +2g. Sensor API link will be added.
Is it possible to store a small amount of data?
Yes it is. The persistent storage is done via RMS (Record Management System):
Is there a support to use the text editor API with full key event handling?
Please check in the JDL:
Is it possible to create a choice group (ChoiceGroup) without a title and how would it look like?
Yes it is possible. All you need is to give an empty title (i.e. "") in the constructor as follows:
mainForm = new Form("Simple ChoiceGroup");
cg = new ChoiceGroup("", ChoiceGroup.EXCLUSIVE);
cg.append("option 1", null);
cg.append("option 2", null);
cg.append("option 3", null);
You will get the following result:
Webinar Series 40 Full Touch UI Style Guide, part 2, 10.07.2012 and 13.07.2012
How could these screens look in full touch?
If Action Button 1 should be used for confirmation, how would you build a multi selction view?
Sketch a download dialog which shows the remaining amount of data.
Sketch a view
- 2 categories
- 3 primary actions related to the view, not a single item out of the view (sorted by priority)
- call

Does Series 40 phone book import contact photos from social media on internet automatically? Providing auto update, etc.
No, native Series 40 Phonebook in full touch as such can only use images from gallery. these are without any dynamic update. If your application wants to use e.g. FB, it requires login. At least to our experience the token you receive from FB for permanent login times out after a certain time so people have to log in again (even it says permanent). However, if you create your own service, it is possible to do dynamic image update by yourself.
Is it possible to run data saving in the background; in device or with a server connection?
As long as your application is in foreground you can run a thread to e.g. download a file in the background. This data can go into buffer and saved from there. Examples are found from here:
Please check also the Q/A about storing a small amount of data more upwards. Use the RMS (Record Management System).

A novice is one who having been regularly admitted into a religious order, and already confirmed in higher vocation by a certain period of probation as a postulant, is prepared by a series of exercises and tests for the religious profession; this period is known as the novitiate. The institution of a time of trial to prepare the religious candidate for his future career is a very ancient one dating from at least the 5th century. No specific length of time for the novitiate is required by canon law; hence it varies with different orders.

Well, it's that time of year - time to make a year-in-retrospect-photo-mosaic. (I think it's somewhere in the official bylaws of being a quilt blogger). So once again I jumped on the bandwagon - a) because it's fun to look back and see what's been done this past year and b) because I like looking at them all over blogland as well. Lots and lots of inspiring eye candy.
2011 has been a great year- adventures and fun that I never would have imagined last January: attending spring Quilt Market in my hometown, having some of my quilts hang at said Quilt Market, meeting one of my favorite fabric/quilting inspirations, Sandy Klop, going WAY out of my comfort zone and planning a quilt-blogger's party, but I think my favorite was meeting so many absolutely lovely people - whether in real life or online - who also
Thank you awesome friends. Happy New Year and best wishes for 2012! Can't wait to see what it brings.

They sound alike, but the two mobile payment solutions each offer their own unique advantages.
Subtle rounding on both sides lends this S6 variation some symmetry -- and a way for lefties to play along.

Stem Cell Definitions
Stem Cell Definitions
The term "stem cell" by itself can be misleading. There are many different types of stem cells, each with very different potential to treat disease. The so-called adult stem cells come from any organ, from the fetus through the adult. These are also called tissue stem cells. The so-called pluripotent stem cells, which have the ability to form all cells in the body, are mostly embryonic or induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells.
All stem cells, whether they are tissue stem cells or pluripotent stem cells, have the ability to divide and create an identical copy of themselves. This process is called self-renewal. The cells can also divide to form cells that go on to develop into mature tissue types such as liver, lungs, brain, or skin.
- What is an embryonic stem cell?
- What is a pluripotent stem cell?
- What is an adult stem cell?
- What is an iPS cell?
- What is a cancer stem cell?
What is an embryonic stem cell?
Pluripotent cells, from which embryonic stem cells are derived, exist only at the earliest stages of embryonic development and go on to form all the cells of the adult body. In humans, these cells no longer exist after about five days of development.
When removed and grown in a lab dish these stem cells can continue dividing indefinitely, retaining the ability to form the more than 200 adult cell types. Because the cells have the potential to form so many different adult tissues they are also called pluripotent ("pluri" = many, "potent" = potentials) stem cells.
James Thomson, a professor of Anatomy at the University of Wisconsin, isolated the first human embryonic stem cells in 1998. He now shares a joint appointment at the University of California, Santa Barbara.

Irv Weissman talks about the difference between adult and embryonic stem cells (3:29)
What is a pluripotent stem cell?
Pluripotent means many (pluri) potentials (potent). In other words, these cells have the potential of taking on many fates in the body, including all of the more than 200 different cell types. Embryonic stem cells are pluripotent, as are iPS cells that are reprogrammed from adult tissues. When scientists talk about pluripotent stem cells they mostly mean either embryonic or iPS cells.
What is an adult stem cell?
What people commonly call adult stem cells are more accurately called tissue-specific stem cells. These are specialized cells found in tissues of adults, children and fetuses. They are thought to exist in most of the body's tissues such as the blood, brain, liver, intestine or skin. These cells are committed to becoming a cell from their tissue of origin, but they still have the broad ability to become any one of these cells. Stem cells of the bone marrow, for example, can give rise to any of the red or white cells of the blood system. Stem cells in the brain can form all the neurons and support cells of the brain, but can't form non-brain tissues. Unlike embryonic stem cells, researchers have not been able to grow adult stem cells indefinitely in the lab.
In recent years, scientists have found stem cells in the placenta and in the umbilical cord of newborn infants. Although these cells come from a newborn they are like adult stem cells in that they are already committed to becoming a particular type of cell and can't go on to form all tissues of the body. The cord blood cells that some people bank after the birth of a child are a form of adult blood-forming stem cells.
Irving Weissman of Stanford University School of Medicine isolated the first blood-forming adult stem cell from bone marrow in 1988 in mice and later in humans.
What is an iPS cell?
An induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell is a cell taken from any tissue from a child or adult that has been genetically modified to behave like an embryonic stem cell. As the name implies, these cells are pluripotent, which means that they have the ability to form all adult cell types.
Shinya Yamanaka at the Kyoto University in Japan created the first iPS cell from a mouse in 2006. Yamanaka now has an appointment at the David J. Gladstone Institutes in San Francisco. In 2007 several groups of researchers including Yamanaka and James Thomson from the University of Wisconsin and University of California, Santa Barbara developed human iPS cells.
What is a cancer stem cell?
Cancer stem cells are a subpopulation of cancer cells that can self-renew, can propagate the cancer, and differentiate into the many types of cells that are found in a tumor. Cancer stem cells are a relatively new concept, but they have generated a lot of excitement among cancer researchers because they could lead to the design of more effective cancer therapies. However, researchers are still debating which types of tumors contain these cells. For those cancers that are propelled by cancer stem cells, those cells are thought to be the source of all cells that make up the cancer. Conventional cancer therapy, such as chemotherapy, may only destroy those cells that form the bulk of the tumor, leaving the cancer stem cells intact and ready to give rise to a recurring tumor. Based on this hypothesis, researchers are trying to find therapies that destroy the cancer stem cells in the hopes that it will improve the chances of treating a patient's cancer.
John Dick at the University of Toronto identified the first cancer stem cell in 1997. Michael Clarke, then at the University of Michigan, later found the first cancer stem cell in a solid tumor, in this case breast cancer. Now at Stanford University School of Medicine, Clarke and his group have now found cancer stem cells in colon cancer and head and neck cancers.

See all my reviews
These are good shorts for grappling or BJJ. I really like the material and the way that they stretch. If I had to say one thing bad it would be the extra material in the closing flap gets annoying and does not seem to serve a purpose. That is the ONLY negative thing about these shorts and is really no big deal. I would highly recommend these to anyone training BJJ

MediaTek, Inc. Adopts Mentor Graphics Clock-Domain Crossing Methodology for Digital Media Integrated Chipsets
WILSONVILLE, Ore., August 8, 2006 - Mentor Graphics Corporation (Nasdaq: MENT) today announced that MediaTek, Inc. (TAIEX: 2454), one of the world's largest fabless integrated circuit (IC) companies, has selected the 0-In® Clock-Domain Crossing (CDC) solution for its verification methodology. By using the Mentor Graphics® 0-In CDC solutions in the RTL model, MediaTek can identify CDC problems in RTL, thereby avoiding potential costly respins and project delays.
MediaTek's complex multimedia designs contain a large number of clock-domain crossing signals - any one of which can cause intermittent functional problems in hardware. Using 0-In CDC allows them to deliver higher quality products to their customers and shorten their overall design cycle.
"MediaTek understands the importance of comprehensive CDC verification. They must have predictability in their product development process and clear, quality metrics," said Steven D. White, general manager of Mentor Graphics 0-In functional verification business unit. "0-In CDC helps eliminate the risk typically associated with verifying CDC circuitry in complex SoC designs."
MediaTek selected 0-In CDC because the technology validates the proper implementation CDC circuitry, including structured synchronization, CDC transfer protocols, and combinational and sequential signal reconvergence.
The 0-In CDC solution provides the flexibility to verify CDC handling from block-level through full-chip verification. In addition, the debugging of the CDC problems can be done in an integrated GUI environment.
For more information on Mentor Graphics 0-In CDC solution to effectively eliminate clock-domain crossing problems, call 1-800-547-3000 or visit the website at http://www.mentor.com/products/fv/abv/0-in-cdc/index.cfm.

A Highly Modified Renfrew
The Goal: After making my last Sewaholic Renfrew I had some concerns. It's not that I didn't like the shirt or the design or anything but I felt the fit could be better. See, I'm not used to wearing close fitting knits much anymore. As you can see from some past knit tops I've made, I like 'em loose and flowy. This is great for fit because there isn't much you need to pay attention to but the Renfrew is different.
Here's a little diagram illustrating changes I wanted to make:
- First, it's a little long for my taste. That doesn't mean it'll be too long on others, I just like my shirts to sit higher and with the band it makes all this extra fabric bunch up at my middle.
- Second, I think I might need a minor FBA? I know the easy way would be to just go up a size in the top but I think it fits well in the shoulders.
- Also, I think the sleeve cap top point needs to be moved forward ever so slightly.
- Lastly, I need a sway back adjustment like crazy!
The Pattern: Sewaholic Renfrew. Like last time I cut a 6 at the bust and a 4 at the waist but this time I made changes from the base pattern.
The Fabric: My friend Susan has been sewing up a few Renfrews of her own. She so kindly donated me the rest of this fabric after she made her own version (twinsies!!). It's a cotton knit possibly from Girl Charlee.
The Changes: So here's what I did. I made several copies of the front and back pieces, did a sway back adjustment ala this tutorial, made a small (like 1/2" wide increase per side) FBA, and scooted the sleeve cap point over.
I've never done an FBA before on a garment for myself. I've done them in theory, like drawing how to do one. I get the concept but I've never put in in practice. I realize I could have gotten away without one by cutting a larger size but I thought this would be a fun opportunity to try it out and see the results first hand. I think it helped the fit a lot!
For the bottom I thought I could either cut the bottom of the shirt shorter and attach the band or just be lazy and hem the shirt sans-band and it would already be the length I wanted. Laziness won out.
This time I top stitched the neckline and sleeve bands with a twin needle.
The Results: As you can see it's much better. Not that the original shirt was that bad to begin with but you can tell that there's no more pulling around the bust, the back isn't perfect but it is much improved, and it's a better length for me. Success! I'm now going to use these new and improved pieces if I decide to do this pattern again. Sometimes it's worth going back and taking the time to do it right, ya know?

You've totally nailed the fit and I love your fabric choice! I've made many Renfrews myself and although I'm pretty happy, I don't think the waistband is particularly flattering on me. May need to omit it myself next time! By the way, I've already cut out my 2nd Hot Chocolate Sweater from the softest wool blend ever...thanks so much for a great pattern ;o)
ReplyDeleteRepliesThanks! I like the waistband on my yellow one but I don't think it's a feature I'd like to have on most my t-shirts.
I'm so excited about your sweater! Your first one has inspired me to try the pattern in a woven but in an animal print inspired fabric (it's not really animal print but it kind of has the same feel).
Cute! The fit looks really good. With all those changes, do you feel a little like you may have well just drafted your own pattern?
ReplyDeleteRepliesYeah, you're right. Oddly enough I do already have a couple t-shirt blocks. They're not as fitted as this, though. Also, sometimes I feel like I need to practice things like the sway back adjustment (which I usually ignore 'cause I'm too lazy). It was just one of those things where I got it in my head to do it so it must be done!
I actually like the bit of wrinkling on my Refrew at the waist, it's interesting to see what people like/don't like. For me, that little bit of fabric hides my belly nicely.
But, I can see how it may not be what you want and I do think this version is super cute. It's a great print.I love it! You really nailed those fit adjustments. And yay for getting the full use out of a fabric purchase... One of the big downsides to purchasing fabric without a plan is exactly this -- I always get way too much. So glad it was able to be utilized!
ReplyDeleteCute! I love hearing about others' experiences with t-shirt fitting. I'm also a loose and flowy tee person but I like having some fitted ones for layering or under jackets. I've been through a couple of fitted tee patterns, mostly Burda and Kwik Sew, and still don't have the fit in the back and shoulders that I like. Some day I'll sit down as you have and just get it done!

Could you write a post or something on twin needles? Whenever I try to use it the thread breaks every-single-time. u_u
I love the top! You made great adjustments :)

I loved this series growing up. It was a short lived series, but they are in the process of re-making the original mini-series and to follow will be a tv series.
For those who need a refresher...
They come in peace to enslave humankind.
A small group of human resistance fighters fight a desperate guerilla war against the genocidal extra-terrestrials who dominate Earth. These ET's were referred to as the Visitors. They were reptilian, yet they wore skin, as to deceive the human race that were indeed humanoid.
Great show...IMO!
