On the eve of the New Year - perhaps the most anticipated holiday for children - their parents, and especially mothers, begin the time of turmoil and pleasant troubles. First of all, this is due to the problem of finding a carnival costume for a matinee. Of course, the stores this season are simply overwhelmed with them, but what could be better for the child than to show off in front of friends in an outfit sewn according to his personal preferences with the talented hands of his mother. It is especially difficult to sew Christmas costumes for girls. Their photos in magazines and catalogs are replete with variety, but it is often difficult to choose a daughter that you like.
Suit selection
Any carnival outfit, first of all, must correspond to your child’s favorite image. It can be Superman, Princess Jasmine or the dragon, so in this matter it is worth discussing this topic with your child. It is especially important if you are going to sew Christmas costumes for girls with your own hands. They should be as cute, bright and original as possible. Therefore, it is advisable to immediately discard the idea of standard snow maidens, snowflakes and fairies. Broaden your horizons, read more fairy tales and watch colorful cartoons with him. Let your daughter from childhood develop a fantasy. Therefore, today we will sew interesting Christmas costumes for girls with our own hands. For example, create the image of a bold cowboy!
Training
In fact, it is extremely easy to manufacture. It is better to buy its small details, that is, a bright shirt, hat, boots and a colored bandana, ready-made in the store, but we will sew the skirt and vest ourselves. To do this, we need fabric: white with a black spotted pattern (preferably soft, not loose and with small pile) and trimmed red. To make Christmas costumes for girls with our own hands turned out just right, we measure the distance between the shoulders of the child, the volume of the collar, chest and waist, as well as the length of the vest. Now we fold the spotted fabric in half, in the middle we draw a vertical line. It should be equal to the length of the future product + 2-3 cm. On the upper edge of the obtained border, we postpone the values equal to half the first dimension to the left and right, and inside it is also the gate volume symmetrically from the line. We step back from it down and slightly to the sides about 10 cm (so that you can freely put your hands through these gaps), smoothly connect them with the upstream points, and at this level horizontally mark the volume of the chest + allowances on both sides of 2-3 cm. And already from the last points we draw lines to the intersection with the lower edge of the fabric.
Finishing touches
Of course, especially talented mothers can crochet such a New Year's costume for a girl, however, it will be much faster and more reliable to sew it. So, we cut the front layer to us in half, sew the parts around the shoulders and sides, and decorate the bottom with a fringe of artificial leather or suede. Now we find a simple denim skirt and also sew on it with a fringe along the hem, and decorate the base with bright false pockets. Now it remains only to glue the “sheriff” star out of red or gold self-adhesive paper to the hat - and now the wonderful suit is ready! Also think about how to sew such interesting Christmas costumes for girls with your own hands, like a mischievous squaw outfit or a cute bee. They will look extremely advantageous against the background of standard ideas.
