Chuni with their own hands: patterns, sewing, decoration
The funny word "chuny" means veryprimitive thing - soft boots. About the origin of the name of this kind of footwear, historians argue: the peasants and boyars, workers and intellectuals all over Russia carried chunks.
Stitching your own hands is not difficult. Such boots can become a favorite home footwear or an original gift to a loved one.
A bit of history
All nationalities differ from each other even insphere of external attributes, such, for example, as footwear. A competent historian at a glance can determine where a particular pair of shoes and boots came from.
Chuni is a feature of the poorly dressed wardrobesociety of old Russia. Originally it was woven shoes - from hemp, bast. In different regions it was called differently, but it does not change the essence of it - short footwear that protects your feet from cold and dust, but not from water and snow.
Initially, the chunks were sewed from the remains of cloth and cotton wool,thus obtaining shoes of different heights and shapes - from slippers to knee-high boots. Over time, the chunks began to be made of sheepskin or fur. Above them rubber rubber shoes were put on, to protect them from moisture. The shoes were warm, dry, comfortable.
In some northern nations sewn chunksare considered national footwear. For example, uggs, which have become a world-famous brand, are in fact the shadows of the nationalities of the Scandinavian countries. To sew sticks with your own hands, patterns can be used in a variety of ways - ready-made or designed by yourself at specified sizes.
Stage of construction
In fact, the design and fabricationshoes - this is a real skill that requires years of experience, great knowledge. After all, the mood and well-being largely depend on comfort. If shoes, boots are uncomfortable, press or rub your foot, then you can not speak of a good mood.
Soft room boots are quite another matter. It is easy to sew the chunks with your own hands. Patterns of such shoes for children and adults can be used ready, and you can build yourself without fear of making mistakes, since there is nothing complicated in this process. Sew such shoes can be made from any material.
In order to construct a scheme independentlytailoring of home shoes, sizes are necessary. The easiest way to remove them is by placing your foot on a piece of paper on a hard surface and circling the contours with a pencil. This is just the basis. Now the scheme must be leveled, adding 1.0-1.5 centimeters on the contour. The outline of the sole was obtained.
To build the top of the boot, you need a tailor's centimeter. They need to measure:
- the volume of the foot in the bone region of the thumb,
- the volume of the foot in the ascent to the highest point,
- the volume of the foot in the ankle,
- height from the floor to the ankle.
Also a flexible centimeter you need to measure the lengthcontour, obtained on the pattern of the foot. The base of the top of the chunk is half the length of the pattern of the foot. Up to measure the height from the floor to the ankle and lay half of the ankle. Then from the bottom edge, put up half the volume of the foot in the lifting and in the place of the stone also upwards - 1/2 of the measured volume. Should be such a detail, which is also aligned along the contour by 1.0-1.5 centimeters, except for the sole line.
The process of patterning
To sew comfortable hosi with your own hands,The patterns of each part must be appropriate to the size. It is best to cut and sew a sampling probe from a simple material in accordance with the executed schemes. If the leg is free to pass into the boot, it will not stretch anywhere and warp, but it will be comfortable, then the pattern is made correctly and you can proceed to the basic cut.
The shape of the fur from the fur will be carried out accuratelyas well as a pattern of a quilted boot made of quilted material. If the chunks are double - the upper part should be slightly larger than the inner one. The increase in the pattern will depend on the thickness of the outer material. For example, for sewing fleece boots the pattern can be increased by only 3 mm along the contour. One boot will require 1 piece of sole and two details of the upper part. When cutting it is necessary to add 5-7 millimeters to the seam.
The pattern of the top of the indoor boots can be made in different ways, for example, such.
Fur and sheepskin - the rules of sewing
Pattern of a sheepskin choke is a simple matter. Sheepskin - a universal material for sewing such a piece of clothes, like home boots. Such shoes will keep warm in winter and do not let your feet sweat in the summer. Suitable for adults and children who are just learning to walk. And room boots will always be useful for everyone.
Sheepskin tunnels are sewn most often manually with the help of a thick needle and strong threads with a seam outward. The seam, made beautifully with bright threads, will give the boots an elegant look.
When designing a fish hood, one should take into account onefeature - the pile on all the details must lie in one direction, for example, to the toe. If the seam is done on the wrong side, then it must be made flat, sewing to the main material with small stitches manually or detached on the typewriter. The same applies to double boots. The resulting double seam should not interfere with the sock and look gross.
Beauty is important
Qualitative pattern of a chuni by own hands - businessthe main thing, but equally important, is that home footwear is also smart, because it will create a mood. Chuni, from whatever material they are sewn, can be decorated in any way - from beads and braid to the plot pictures embroidered with a cross. You need to make an ornament on the top of the boot or on the outside. The inside of the foot is best not to decorate, as it is subjected to friction and the pattern will quickly deteriorate.
