Skirt of tulle with your own hands
The product we will be sewing is made bymotives of American Pettiskirt models, you can find his samples on the Internet by entering this name in the search engine. Of course, there are differences between the self-sewing and the proprietary thing, but the overall impressions are very similar. So why not try it? In the master class, a description is given of cutting and sewing a skirt for a girl of five years of age. Its length in ready form is 30 cm. So, let's get started!
Material selection
Original pettiskirt skirts are made ofnylon chiffon, but in Russia this fabric is almost impossible to sell. Either you have to order it from the US, or use available analogs. Nylon chiffon is very light, almost weightless, while it keeps the shape perfectly. In addition, the edges of this material do not crumble, so they do not need to be stamped at all. Most nylon chiffon is similar to capron for pantyhose, smooth and completely non-sticky.
But since it's hard to get it,we will use what is. Option - a skirt of tulle. He, of course, is somewhat harsh and pricked, so you need to choose the softest of the proposed ones. You can also use lining nylon, devoid of flaws, but it is heavy, because of which the skirt of it does not hold the shape and looks "fallen off." For tiers, you can also use this material to make the finished product look fuzzy, almost like a ballerina pack, only more voluminously. There is an option and another - the tiers to sew from chiffon, so that the result is as close to the original as possible.
A skirt of tulle for its tailoring will require:
- Non-woven fabric.
- Chiffon or tulle (for tiers).
- Atlas or satin (for a coquette).
- Fatine (for defrauds).
- Elastic band with a width of 25 mm.
- Tape.
Our skirt of tulle and chiffon consists, as a matter of fact, oftwo completely identical skirts. Making them multi-colored, you can get a two-way product, that is, in fact, two outfits in one. Let's bring a little clarity in the terminology:
- The coquette is the upper part of the skirt. It is sewn tape and rubber band, and to the bottom are attached the tiers of satin. For a child of 5 years, a satin strip of 1 m 22 cm in length and 19 cm in width is required.
- tiers - parts, which are attached frills. They need cuts of chiffon, one of which is 7 meters long and 9 cm wide, and the second one is 16 meters long and 11 cm wide.
- ruches - the basis of the splendor of the skirt. They represent a 44-meter strip of tulle with a width of 7 cm.
Stages of work
- The whole tulle is cut into strips 7 cm wide. To facilitate the process will help paper cut the right size, which you can orientate when cutting.
2. The resulting ribbons roll into the huts. A bunch of skeins turns out impressive!
3. Cut the fabric into strips of the right size for the tiers (9 and 11cm).
4. On the sewing machine (zigzag seam) or on the overlock we process the edges of chiffon. In this case, you need to ensure that the different halves of the skirt are not mixed!
5. For each half we sew chiffon strips between each other and close in a ring.
6. Be careful at the final stage, make sure that the ring does not twist.
7. Now it's the ruches' turn. Fatiny stripes ppararivaem on the filing thread one after another: the beginning of the next is superimposed on the end of the previous one. The length of the rucle should be equal to the length of the lower tier.
8. Ruches are attached to the lower tier of the skirt.
9. Collect the second tier to the size of the first (upper) and stitch them together.
10. Repeat all operations for the second half of the skirt.
11. We cut out the coquette of satin and lay long sides of the blank with non-woven fleece.
12. Fold the strip across in half.
13. We leave the mark in the strip for the seam, to insert the rubber into it later. Sew it on it and turn it around.
14. On the front side, we lay 2 lines along the line of the rubber band.
15. Half skirt of the skirt folded to the wrong side to each other and sew the coquette to the bottom.
16. We insert an elastic band, to which we tie the ribbon. That's all!
This magnificent skirt of tulle decorates the wardrobe aslittle women of fashion, and well-established ladies. Particularly relevant are such forms for clubs and other places of entertainment, where one can afford to be somewhat frivolous to spite all the conventions.
