This detailed master class of sewing and sewing for beginners will teach sewing a summer sarafan.
In summer you often want something simple,breathable and comfortable. This summer sundress is perfect for this, you can make it from linen or cotton. Sewing a summer sundress is easy, even a beginner can handle it. The accessible text and high-quality photos of this master class on cutting and sewing for beginners will be very helpful. We need: - main fabric 1.3 m; - pattern (shown in the photo); - film and marker or paper and pencil for constructing the pattern; - interlining - 8 by 30 cm approximately; - cardboard 18 by 20 cm; - threads; - scissors; - pins for pinning the fabric; - chalk or soap; - sewing machine; – overlock; – iron. If you have everything you need, we can start the sewing process. The pattern is given on a grid with 10 x 10 cm squares for size 46.
Build the same grid for yourself and restore itPattern details. The pattern consists of the following details: - top of the shelf - 1 piece with a fold; - bottom - 1 piece with a fold and two pieces without a fold; - neck facing - 1 piece with a fold. If you decide to use linen, you should first soak it in almost hot water, hang it up, straighten it out and dry it. Then iron it with steam. Because linen shrinks, you need to take this into account when buying fabric. Fold the fabric in half with the right side inward. Lay out the bottom piece, pin it and cut out two pieces. This will be the back bottom piece. Add 1 cm to all allowances and 1.5 cm along the bottom edge.
Now place the bottom piece on the fold, pin and cut out, this will be the front bottom piece.
We cut out the remaining details:upper part of the front; pockets - 4 units (26 cm high by 21 cm wide); facings of the top - strips cut on the bias (4.5 cm by 1 m - 2 pieces); facing of the top.
We glue the top facing with interlining and iron the piece in half (lengthwise).
We take a piece of cardboard and apply it to the front side of the pocket.
Iron the top 5 cm.
Then from the ironed one another 1 cm inward.
We leave this "cuff" on the front side, and place the cardboard on the back side. We align the upper edges of the cardboard and the pocket. We iron the side and bottom allowances.
Thus, we iron all 4 pockets.
Sew the back lower parts along the middle seam, 1 cm from the cuts.
On all four pockets we lay a finishing line along the bottom edge of the “cuff” 2 mm from the edge.
We overcast the middle allowance of the back lower part.
We also overcast all four pockets.
Using cardboard, we mark the location of the pockets.
We pin the pockets. On the front and on the back.
We sew a finishing line along the pockets 2 mm from the edge of the pocket.
Sew the pocket on three sides, except for the top one.
Sew the side seams of the lower parts.
We cut out the upper part of the back. We fold the fabric and draw directly on it along the upper edge 22 cm, along the lower edge 21 cm, 20 cm high.
Along the top of the shelf we make two parallel lines at a wide step. We start each line with a fastening and finish with unfastened ends of threads of about 10 cm.
Pull the lower threads (pulling simultaneously) to 28 cm.
We put the straightened facing of the top of the shelf, and put the top of the shelf on it (gathered). With the right sides facing inward. That is, face to face.
We sew these parts 1 cm from the cuts.
We pin the inner part of the flyaway.
We lay a line directly into the seam.
We attach the upper part of the back to the lower part, and remove the excess into the opposite fold in the middle.
Sew the top part of the dress to the bottom part 1 cm from the edges. Overcast the edges.
Sew the parts of the top facing (which were cut on the bias) 7 mm from the cuts. Iron them apart.
Iron down the seam allowance of the top of the dress to its bottom. Iron the bias tape lengthwise in half.
We apply the bias binding seam (the one in the middle) to the upper edge of the back, to its middle, and stitch 1 cm from the edges.
Then from the middle to the other side.
Now we fold the facing with the right side inward and sew its edges 1 cm to the point where the seam for attaching the facing to the top edge of the dress begins and ends.
On the resulting ties, we cut off the allowance to about 3 mm (we do not make it too narrow, so that the seam does not come apart later).
We pin a pin at the end of the tie (in one layer).
Now we lower its “head” inside the tie.
And we turn the cord inside out.
On the back side, fold the top facing (which turns into a cord) and stitch from the front side directly into the seam.
We fold the bottom of the dress by 1.5 cm and make a finishing line by 1.3 cm.
Iron the dress again, clean it from sewing debris. Put it on and wear it all summer with pleasure and comfort.
