Pattern school sundress

Sundress has long been part of the school wardrobe for girls in primary school. Its practicality and convenience have already been appreciated by many parents and children. Few mothers know that it’s not so difficult to sew a sundress to their daughter.

Today sundresses sew a variety of styles. About them will be discussed. A small adulthood in the school image of a first grader will push her to positive emotions and good studies.

This model has a skirt-style skirt and straps. The pattern is designed for size 122-60. Any clothing size is determined by the chest girth. Chest circumference divided by 2.

The pattern must be drawn on paper or newspaper, observing all the calculations, and cut. The length of the straps to the sundress before cutting should be measured directly on the child. Here we will open a little secret to our mothers and grandmothers.

And now proceed to the cutting and sewing. Finished patterns spread on the fabric. Lay the bodice and skirt down the lobe of the thread.

The line of the middle back, front and fold of the skirt should lie in the middle (fold) of the fabric. Skirt spread out as shown.

Cut the pattern on the fabric with a chalk or pencil along the contour and add seam allowances. The pattern on the fabric is cut along the line of allowances.

Next, do the following:

• Leaf sew along the side lines. All open sections on the product must be processed on the overlock or zigzag stitching. With this operation, the fabric will not crumble and the sundress will last a long time.
• Apply the skirt of the product to the waistline. Stabbed with pins (if needed), tacked. Fitting sundress with basting required. This must be done to correct all inaccuracies before sewing. Only after fitting the waist line is machine.
• Now you need to sew a zipper in the middle of the back. It is recommended that the girl take the zipper longer to make the girl comfortable to take off and put on the sundress. The length of the zipper should go on the skirt of the sundress.

How to sew a zipper, see the video:

• Straps folded face down and sew. Then turn out. The seam can be smoothed with an iron in the middle of the straps, then the front side of the straps will look neat and beautiful.
• Place on the bodice, where the straps are sewn, you need to close the stitch.
• Fold the hem of a sundress with a closed cut on the machine or manually with invisible stitches from the wrong side with a seam.

This model can be sewn on the basis of this pattern. The drawing goes to a height of 140 cm, the length of the product should be adjusted before cutting. The style is given without darts and folds.

Sew it very easy:

1. Tack and sew shoulder and side seams. If during fitting the fabric puffs up, then there are not enough darts on the chest.
2. Sew a zipper in the middle of the back.
3. Bend the bottom of the product. The description of this operation is specified in the previous model.

Attention deserves the collar, which will decorate school clothes. In the photo you can see how the collar looks.

Need to do the following work:

• Draw the line of the neck of the back and the front separately on paper. This can be done at the stage when only shoulder seams are sewn (or to make paper blanking). The collar width is 5 cm. The length is the length of the entire neck.
• The collar is cut out in 3 parts: 2 main and one on non-woven fabric.Flizelin will make the collar more dense. The collar will be better to keep its shape, so it is better to lie on the product.

Sewn on the outside. Turn out the collar and straighten the seam. Attention! In the collar there are rounded places.

On the sewn collar in these places need notches (in the form of small triangles). Manicure scissors neatly and evenly cut them. Thus, the excess fabric will leave. And the collar will be smooth from the front.

How to cut, sew a collar - recommendations in the attached video.

The collar can be decorated with a beautiful narrow lace. Lace is sewn together with a collar on the outside. If there is uncertainty in sewing the collar, then you can buy it at any sewing store (we take all the details of the product with us to the store for fitting the collar).

1. Collar sew in the neck. Open cut close oblique bake.
2. Gap handle piping or oblique bake. The slanting tape can be taken in the tone of a sundress or a contrast product. This is done at the discretion of the seamstress. The photo shows examples of processing the neck and armhole.

Very beautiful and interesting model is obtained with folds. You can sew such a sundress on a pattern with a collar. But the drawing needs to be changed.

It should be cut along the waist line, and the skirt should be modified to reflect the folds. On each fold double width undertakes. Example: fold width - 1.5 cm (1.5 cm x2 = 3 cm). Starting from the middle of the front and back, put off the width of the fold. There may be several folds. In finished form, the pattern of the skirt should look like this: an additional part of the folds is glued into the drawing of the skirt. The photo shows an example of how to modify the pattern for the folds.

After cutting, proceed to the following operations:

1. Evenly lay the folds on the 2-piece skirt.
2. Folds sweep.
3. Connect back and before with a skirt.
4. Along the waistline to lay the basting and stitch on a typewriter.
5. The following sequence of works will be similar to the manufacture of a sundress with a collar.

Today, in schools, you can see most of the girls in sundresses. After all, they can be combined with a blouse, and with a turtleneck or a thin jacket with long sleeves. Another image looks very nice: a sundress and a warm blouse.
