In order to start a master class on sewing an apron, you should prepare. You need to take fabric (excellent models are obtained from natural fabrics, linen or cotton). You also need to have scissors, a tailor's tape measure, tailor's pins, a ruler, chalk or a small piece of soap on hand.
First, the details are cut out, namely:
- The strap is short, 5 centimeters wide and 75 centimeters long;
- The strap is long, also 5 centimeters wide, and 1 meter 40 cm long.
Next, the upper part of the future product is cut out. Its width will be 27 centimeters, and 28 centimeters is enough for the length. This is such a practically square piece of fabric.
When starting work on the lower part, you should measure the waist circumference of the future owner of the apron. In this case, it is 75 centimeters. The length of this part is half a meter.
Before sewing, the apron parts need to be prepared. First of all, one side of the upper pattern for the product is folded half a centimeter and ironed.
Then it is folded again and ironed again.
The remaining sides of the upper part of the apron are processed in the same way and pinned together.
The next stage of work is basting. The lower part of the product is processed in exactly the same way.
After the top and bottom pieces are prepared, they need to be stitched on a sewing machine. After this, the basting is removed and the finished seams are ironed.
The corners should be treated carefully. This is how they should look after machine stitching.
The apron should not stick out, but fit wellfit the figure. For this, the lower part of the product needs darts. The darts should be made at the same distance from the middle of the lower blank in its upper part.
To continue working, the top and bottom parts of the apron are chipped together, with the centers aligned.
Now – work for the sewing machine. It is with the help of this well-known tool that we will connect all the parts together.
The next step is to pin the long strap, aligning it with the center part of the apron.
We sew the detail to the product.
The next step is to bend the edges inwards by half a centimeter, the stitched seam should look inside the long strap. We pin the piece together.
After this, you should sweep away the fixed crease.
After basting, go over the seam again with a sewing stitch, then remove the basting.
Now it's time to work with the thin strap.It is folded lengthwise, then in half. After that, it is machine-sewn. It is important not to forget to leave a small opening when sewing, it will be needed to turn the part inside out.
Straighten the turned-out strap and iron it.
Now you can try on the apron. The length of the short strap is adjusted to fit the figure and then sewn on. For this, you can take buttons that match the color scheme.
The top part of the apron is ironed.
After this, a longer strap is sewn to the top piece using a sewing machine with small securing stitches.
The apron is ready.If desired, you can iron it well again and use it for your pleasure. Also, a masterpiece created with your own hands can be a great gift for any occasion, and will always please the owner with the memory of the giver!
