How to sew shorts | ||
Sewing is my hobby. I used to sew different clothes for my children and me. I want to make summer shorts with a
flap. Shorts are a kind of shortened trousers. This is a necessary element of the
wardrobe. Shorts may serve as an element of sportswear, beachwear, and leisurewear. Currently shorts are piece of clothing for all ages. There are several types of shorts. First are the mini shorts. This shorts for vacation and the beach. Classic shorts must be in every woman's
wardrobe. These shorts can be put to work as well for a walk. Bermuda is a type of shorts, most recently used not only as clothing for leisure, but also as an everyday item. Breeches are short pants to knees, tightly covering legs, and narrow, long shorts. Breeches can be stitched with
flap. Capri is a type of shorts. Capri has always come with
flap. I want to make the classic shorts with flap. These shorts are perfectly compatible with many types of clothing in my
wardrobe. Cotton is the most suitable fabric for these shorts. I need 1 meter of cotton fabric, elastic band 40 cm (width 1 cm), and 10 cm column diameter of 8 mm for contraction bands. First you need to do pattern. Then I folded the fabric face to face, according to the scheme layout looked around and cut out the details: 4 pieces for front and rear sheets and 1 piece for the pocket. It is necessary to take into account the direction of grain lines and the location of the figure, if it is on the fabric. All parts are cut out with a view seam: 1cm - for shorts without lateral incisions, 3 cm - for cuts in the side seams. I left 3 cm on the
flap of shorts at the bottom. I sewed the two parts side sections. At the same time leave no room for cuts stitched in side seams. Now sew the seams steppers, one line sew front and rear sections to places marked with side slits. Iron out seams. Single cut to the top of the pocket inside out, tuck and stitch at a distance of two inches cut. I sprained top shortstop on 2, 5 cm, baste and stitch at a distance of two cm. Then pass through the elastic ribbon. Its length is equal to the circumference of the waist. The edges of the tape need to sew pieces of cord to 5 cm, and at its free ends to tie knots. I turned on the wrong side of allowances left in the bottom. Now allowances along the side of the cuts needed to bend the inside out, and hem by hand. Hip and trendy shorts are ready.
Wardrobe replenished other comfortable and beautiful clothes. I can wear these shorts anywhere. Several blouses and tops from my
wardrobe are perfectly suited to these shorts. | ||
