Sewing lovers know that this business has its own tricks and secrets that help create high-quality and beautiful products. Some of them can replace overlockers and decorative parts.
In this article I will tell you about 4 useful tips that will help you improve your skills and make the sewing process more enjoyable and convenient.
How to process the bottom and sleeves of a T-shirt without an opener?
On the wrong side I make a mark 4 cm from the edge and turn the fabric over onto the face.
I bend this folded part again in the middle, cut side to fold, and pin it with pins.
I make a seam at a distance of 0.5 cm from the edge, grabbing all the layers. Then I overcast it or you can immediately stitch it on an overlocker.
I fold the seam allowance up and iron it, then make a delay on top, grabbing the seam allowance to secure it.
1) We usually bend the elastic cuffs for sleeves along their length, stitch them and then fold them in half. There is another way to do this
We bend the elastic along the length, as in the first case, then make another bend across and make a stitch.
Here all 4 layers are stitched together and the seam is fixed.
2) A beautiful way to sew a wide elastic band onto the waistband, sleeves or bottom of any blouse
Distribute the elastic evenly and attach it to the wrong side.
Then we make a fold and pin it with pins; it is better to secure the edges of the elastic with a stitch.
At the beginning of the line, mark the angle at which the zigzag begins, then continue it to the end.
In this case, each time we unfold the fabric in the opposite direction. We focus on the foot, each line is parallel to it.
The result is a soft zigzag assembly.
3) How to make a hole in the belt if there are no eyelets?
Take a strip for the belt, 10-11 cm wide, and cut out a small piece in the front middle, 5 to 10 cm wide.
We fold it, mark the line along which the belt will be sewn. In the middle on both edges we mark a hole that is slightly wider than the lace.
We connect this part with the belt and sew everything except the hole.
Next, sew on the belt as usual.
Use these techniques in your creativity to make your products unique and inimitable.
