Sew a fur vest themselves
Sew a fur vest with your own hands is not difficult. You can manage for a couple of hours.
- You need 75 cm of suitable artificial fur and a meter of lining, preferably natural, material, texture and color do not matter. Of course, it is best if the selected fur is rather soft and smooth, and with a base of elastic material - then the process of assembling the details of the vest will be easier. It is necessary to take into account the direction of the pile on the details - it should look strictly down
- Remove the measurement of the chest, waist and hips, as well as the length of the waistcoat.
- Before sewing a fur vest, you will need to make a pattern. To do this, draw a rectangle on the paper, its width is equal to the chest circumference plus 2 cm to freedom, and the length to the desired length of the article. Cut out the rectangle and fold it twice.
- Mark the main lines of the chest of the waist and hips, based on the figure. The pattern on it is a fitted waistcoat, you can simulate at your own discretion and straight or flared variants.
- So, put 75 cm down - this is the middle of the shelf and back. From the top point we measure 6.5 cm - this is the line of the neck on the back. Draw a smooth line of the neck of the backrest. Measure 11.5-14 cm (model) and draw a straight line at an inclination of 3 cm - this is the shoulder seam.
- From the end point of the shoulder, lay the vertical down 19-22 cm, then 3-4 cm to the right and round it in the form of an armhole. From this point, measure 17 cm to the waist line, or you can not cut out the side seam, then continue the line to the bottom of the product. Draw the bottom of the product, connecting the lower midpoint and the end point of the side seam.
- Connect the points of the beginning of the shoulder seam and the waist line - we get the neckline of the waistcoat. Perhaps you will get another line. Do not be afraid, experiment, let the will of your imagination!
- Cut out the pattern and transfer it to the underside of the fur, and then cut through the prepared pattern of fur fabric. Also apply with a lining cloth.
- Stitch the fur and lining details together. Then connect the shoulder seams of the shelf to the back, and turn the details of the waistcoat to the front side through the neck.
Sew a line of a neck manually by secret stitches. - You can cut a collar-stand out of the same cut, for which cut a strip of 10 cm wide and long, equal to the neck circumference, sew together them and turn them out, and then stitch the collar into the neck. Attach suitable buckles to the waistcoat and add accessories and ornaments to your taste. You can use a suitable belt instead of a fastener - it will also be relevant.
Walk on the brush at all seams, so that the pile of the waistcoat lay flat and the overall appearance then becomes haute couture.
