One of the elements of clothing that has become popular again is the boa . This is a small fur scarf or a skin with an animal's head. In order to decorate your coat or even a dress, a fur boa can be made by yourself.
There are several options, how you can sew a fur boa.
Fur boa without pattern
It will take:
- artificial fur:
- Scissors, needles, threads, pins, tape measure.
- Cut off from the whole piece of fur two strips measuring 13 cm by 130 cm.
- Fold them with the wrong sides to each other so that the pile looked in one direction. We pin it with pins.
- Starting to sew from the inside, we sew the two parts together to each other with a suture seam along the long edges, leaving the short sides not stitched.
- We precisely cut these sides and we also sew them with a seam wrap.
- Having deviated from the edge of 30 cm, we cut a slit with a scissors length of 7 cm.
- After verifying that the second end of the boa enters the incision made, we trim the edges of the suture seams.
- To make the edges neat, using a needle on all sides of the boa, we take out the pile from the stitches.
- Our fur boa is ready!
This boa is universal - it can be worn in many ways:
How to make a festive white boa?
It will take:
- fluffy artificial fur;
- 1 m of satin cord;
- sewing tools.
Progress:
- We cut out of a fur a rectangle measuring 55 cm x 14 cm and 2 circles with a diameter of 9 cm.
- Divide the satin cord into 2 pieces of 50 cm and tie a knot at each end.
- To make buboes, pin a pin from the side of the fur cord, and from the wrong side, after stepping off the edge of the circle 5 mm, sew a double thread with a suture (a needle forward). Be sure to sew the cord so that it does not slip out.
- Having reached the place where they started sewing, we tighten the thread to assemble the circle into a ball.
- Place the knot of the cord in the hole and fix the assembled ball with a few more stitches, and make sure that the fur does not fall under the thread. Do the same with the other cord to get the second bubo.
- To the short side of the rectangle at a distance of 4 cm from the corner, sew on the front side of the satin cord, leaving the knot a little to protrude.
- On the front side (fur) we lay cords with buboes as shown in the picture.
- Fold it in half and pin edges with pins, leaving a gap in the middle about 10 cm. At the corners with the help of pins, we make the bevel.
- Stepping back 1 cm from the edge, sew over the entire length of the scarf, except for the left slit. The corners are made round.
- Through the lagged gap, we turn the entire boa to the front side and sew a neat slit.
- We check that the fur fleece is not worn with thread and our boa is ready.
