Simple sundresses. How to stitch quickly and easily?
We will build the most primitive basis - a skirt, two stripes on the chest and one - on the waist.
Let's start by building a flared skirt. It is based on the sun. Take a piece of fabric and cut out a square with sides (S), their length is calculated by the following formula:
S = 2D skirts + 2R.
Such different sundresses ... How to sew an outfit based on a sun skirt
- Fold a piece of fabric four times. From one corner of the resulting square we draw a quarter of the circle, which is equal to the radius of the notch of the waist R.
- From the resulting line, we postpone another quarter of the circle with a radius that is equal to the length of the skirt (D skirt).
- Cut the workpiece in circles.
- We process the bottom of the skirt with an overlock or sew a knitted trim or any braid, lace of your choice. You can simply tuck the hem and hem it, or sew it in a zigzag fashion on a sewing machine, choosing a small stitch and pulling the fabric. Get a twisted edge.
- We cut a strip of fabric equal in length to the waist circumference + 2-3 cm and a width of 6 cm. We bend this strip in half lengthwise and stitch along the top edge of the skirt - we get a belt that covers the open section of the skirt and decorates it.
- We cover two long belts with which we will cover the chest and back. Their length can be arbitrary, but not less than 80 cm. More - as much as you like, how much tissue is enough. Width - about 20 centimeters each. You can cut 40 centimeters, fold them in half, stitch them in tubes and twist. Then you get a completed part with closed slices. If the fabric is not dense, then this is the best option.
- Then they will need to be ironed so that the seam of the tube is left under the front side. With this seam, the strip will be applied directly to the body.
- We make the top detail of the sundress. We sew both strips in the finished form to the belt of the skirt from the inside, close to each other. The free ends will be thrown behind the neck and already on the back arbitrarily intersect with each other in various combinations.
Another way to sew a sundress without a pattern
Take two identical silk large square scarves. Sew the two edges of these diagonal scarves. Leave two small corners unstitched to the end. The height of the corners should be equal to the depth of the desired neckline from the shoulder to the chest cavity. Do the same from the opposite side. You should get a cone - the wide corners of the scarves at the bottom of the hem and 2 corners at the top. As auxiliary accessories, use two straps that are sewn to the corners from above. With their help, you will tie the straps of the resulting sundress. Either by the neck, or on one shoulder diagonally.
The result was a surprisingly beautiful, bright, unusual outfit. Now you know exactly how to sew a sundress yourself without any special education or rich sewing experience!
