Such an amazing skirt can be sewn even by beginners. After all, the cut is not as complicated as it seems. You just need to prepare everything you need to create a product. And then take measurements for a skirt - a double sun. The sewing rules are described in the article.
Determine the size
It is necessary to take a measurement with a centimeter tape along the waistline. It is she who will help to clarify her circumference. It is required to know the length - r and the length - R. Knowing these sizes, we can draw a circle for the sun skirt. R is the length of the skirt (we add 1.5 cm to the hem of the hem), r - we will consider, as shown below.
The waist circumference was 79 cm, but we need to know the radius of this circle. Therefore, we use this formula: r = waist circumference, divide by 2 Pi. r = 79 / 6.28 = 12.5 cm. The resulting radius can be rounded both up and down.
Create a pattern
When we have calculated the necessary dimensions, we can proceed to the next stage of work. To do this, you need to prepare paper for the pattern of the skirt - a double sun. Then we fold it once in half, and then a second time (along the lines, as shown in the figure). After that, we begin to build a pattern on a folded square piece of paper.
Building patterns
First, note the landing radius r. Then mark the length of the skirt R + 1.5 cm (increase for the bottom of the skirt for hemming). Another 0.5 cm is added to the upper cut.
After calculating r = 12.5 cm from the upper corner of the square with a centimeter tape, measure this distance and use the pencil to put the first mark and the other mark 54.5 cm from the top corner, since the skirt has a length of 40 + 1.5 + 0, 5 + r = 54.5 cm.
When you marked both radii, you need to draw two circles on paper. We take a centimeter tape and draw a smooth line with a pencil of length r and R from the corner of the upper square along the marks.
Prepare the pattern
On the planned lines, we cut out a pattern with tailor scissors. After that, you need to lay it out on a flat surface and make sure that it turns out the shape you need with a hole in the middle. Then the created pattern for the skirt - the double sun with your own hands must be divided into two parts (that is, cut this circle in half).
What fabric to use?
Light fabrics are used for sewing products: from calico to chiffon. Apply various refined and stylish fabrics, all types are in demand. Everyone chooses their own taste and color. You can also use thick fabrics that hold their shape, they are perfect for the cold season.
How many meters of fabric will be needed for a two-layer skirt?
To stitch the product, you will need:
- For the upper skirt of this style, you can use fabric with a width of 1 meter 50 centimeters and a length of 1 meter 22 centimeters.
- For a lower skirt, a length of 1 meter 30 centimeters is required, and a width of 1 meter is 50 centimeters.
- The length of the belt is 89 cm and the width is 7 cm.
- A slanting inlay for processing the bottom of two skirts is 5 meters 32 centimeters.
- Flizelin - 10 centimeters.
Cut the upper and lower skirts
On the cutting table in expanded form, we lay out the fabric, the width of which is 1 meter 50 centimeters. We put a pattern upward along the length line, departing from the upper cut of 1.5 cm (this is necessary so that there are allowances for seams on the side cuts of the skirt), as shown in the figure. We cut out the first part of the main skirt, then in the same way we make the second half. We continue to cut a skirt - a double sun.
We cut out the second skirt, which is under the main one. We lay out the lining material on a flat surface with a width of 1 m 50 cm. We put a paper pattern on it, 1.5 cm from the top. We add 8 cm to the bottom of the lining skirt. We cut the first part of the product, then cut the second half using the same technology.
Lastly, a belt is cut out. Such a detail is cut for a skirt - a double sun on a fractional or transverse. It can be striked or all-cut. The waist circumference is 79 + 10 = 89 cm. The length of the belt will be 89 cm, width - 7 cm. In the finished form, it turns out to be 3 cm wide.
Sewing
On two skirts, side sections are processed. The left sides are completely grinded, and the right ones from the mark under the zipper and to the end of the cut. Then they are ironed. Two skirts in the upper part are interconnected, the main one goes up, and the lining underneath. Then the zipper is screwed in.
The bottoms of two skirts are processed with an oblique trim. A non-woven fabric is glued onto the belt with an iron and the part is stitched. If excess length remains, it can be cut off if necessary. The belt is attached to the skirt - double sun at the top. The buttonhole is sewn and a button is sewn. A self-made skirt is ready to wear.
Related product
A two-layer skirt with an elastic band is built a little differently. So that it goes well through the hips, instead of measuring the waist, use a measure of the circumference of the hips. And additionally added to the seams. The construction principle is the same as shown above. The fabric is laid out along the share. The belt is drawn along the length of the upper cut of the skirt. The elastic is inserted according to the size of the waist circumference. Her calculation: r = ½ (OB + 6): 6.28R = skirt length.
Gypsy skirt
Now this product is very popular. This type of gypsy skirt - a double sun differs from other types in that it is bright and saturated. It has a rich finish, consisting of frills, lace, satin edging. She has two skirts: one main, and the other as a "petticoat". The product is mainly used for dancing. And its cut differs from other types of short double skirts-sun. And why? Just because it is long and flared.
Combining parts with each other
To create a dress, it is necessary to additionally build a drawing of the base, and transfer it from the drawing to tracing paper. Only the shelf and the back to the waist are taken. We cut out the details on the fabric with the help of a pattern, not forgetting the allowances for the seams. Need to sew the bodice completely. Then it is connected along the waist with a skirt - a double sun. Build a separate sleeve. And then they sew in and grind the details in a dress with a skirt - a double sun.
Modify the finish and produce wet-heat treatment. With the help of such connections of parts between each other, a product is obtained.
