Vest in the modern world - not only warmthe attribute of a winter wardrobe, but also a stylish thing, even for small mods. And for those who did not find anything "digestible" in the stores, there is the option to do everything with your own hands.
Materials
For children's vests do not need anything mythical, but we need the following resources:
- The material is on the lining.It's just that it does not matter which style the product belongs to, this material is needed for anyone other than winter knit models. Here any fabric will do, but traditionally for this use a special, lining, with a low-key or completely absent ornament.
- The upper material, more precisely the one that will be on the front side. It all depends on the model, style and purpose, as well as the imagination of the needlewoman.
- Threads, a needle, a machine, and so on. If we are talking about the classical model, then the buttons, well, if it's about sports, lightning and other accessories.
Уделить особое внимание необходимо именно тканям, their choice largely depends on the purpose of the finished product and the time of the year, which is timed for the sewing of a children's vest for boys and girls. If it concerns things in the classical style, designed for school or official events such as a wedding, then as a decor you can use a different texture of the fabric.
Cutting
Before you start creating a pattern orchildren's vest patterns, it is necessary to draw all the details and an approximate size ratio in the usual figure. This method is used to calculate the number of parts and their size ratio.
For a pattern, you need paper, a cutold wallpaper or sheet of Whatman, pencil, ruler and compasses. Instead of a compass, you can use a thread and a pencil. In addition, the pattern can be carried directly to the fabric, but then the opportunity to adjust the product will be much less.
Details
The details that should be in the pattern of the standard classical vest and many modifications of this type of clothing fit into the following list:
- Back. This is the biggest detail, it is made by the standards of the neck, waist, chest girth and armhole.
- Front part.Depending on the model, it can be either integral, or consist of 2 independent parts. It will also be necessary to measure the armhole, thoughtful details of the flaps, especially if the product is planned in a standard classic design with lapels.
- Pieces of cloth on the lining of chest and throat seams and the inside of the product. They are necessary for a more accurate appearance of products.
- Details for lining. Almost always necessary of them are only 3, 2 for the front and one, a large, for the back, made according to the drawing of the part of the back.
- Details of the decor - a collar, lapels and so on.
If we are talking about a children's waistcoat in the performance of jeans or other fairly dense material, it is recommended to do without lining.
Nuances of calculations
At a pattern it is necessary to not forget about several nuances necessary for comfortable tailoring and neat appearance of a product:
- Allowances for seams are mandatory on almost all parts of the model or product, allow you to keep the original sizes of clothing.
- No matter how dense the fabric is, it is always necessary to seal the seams, regardless of the type of model. The exception is only those details, which are provided by the flight of design thought.
- Before the cutting, you need to carefully smooth the fabric with a steamer or through a wet gauze, so that the folds are not in sight.
- Пройма для рукава и для детской жилетки are measured according to one principle. Most often, the starting point for this is the child's half-engagement of the breast, divided by 4. And for the presence of a free-fitting sleeve, in the case of a children's vest for girls and boys, freedom of movement is also necessary, 7 centimeters are added to the total. In the drawing, the armhole line begins to bend to the bottom at the beginning of the last third of the distance, if counted from above. The bend of the back is steeper than the bend in the front.
- If the plan for the product provides an overlapone of the "sides" of the front part, it should also be taken into account both on the drawing and on the pattern, in this case it is necessary to summarize not only the increase in the standard parameters, but also the allowances along the entire length of the bending line of the part.
Decoration
The decor of the product can be any, starting fromembroidery and rhinestones for girls, ending with stripes of various images for boys. If we are talking about a knitted product, then the details of the decor made of laces or ribbons, compositions made of large beads, will be superfluous. For a more harmonious appearance of the product, it is best to follow the scale. On the product with a large pattern or viscous it is best to use the same large details of the decor, if the product is made of thin threads or from a fabric without a pattern, then it can approach absolutely any scale.
Than buying in the store is worse than the products madeown? First of all, manual work was always much better than that performed by machines, besides such products are made with the soul, which makes them more "native".
