Every woman wants to look good not only during the day but also at night. Night sleeping clothes are often much less than the clothes in which we go to work, study, walk, to the store. But updating your "night" wardrobe is very simple - sew a nightgown with your own hands. Let's look at an easy way.
It is necessary
Cotton fabric, sewing supplies
Instructions
Step 1
Choose a fabric. For a nightdress, opt for a soft cotton fabric. In this case, it will take about 1.5 meters.
Step 2
Draw a pattern. This nightgown requires a simple pattern that consists of two parts, the first part being the brisket. You will need two rectangular stripes, whose dimensions are: length - your half-girth of the chest (+ 2-3 cm); height - about 13 cm. Each strip must be folded lengthwise so that the front side is inside, sewn along the edge and turned out. The second part is in the center. For this part, we need one rectangular piece of the following dimensions: the width is 1.5 times greater than the width of the chest; height - about 80 cm, but it can be either longer or shorter (it all depends on your desire).
Step 3
Also in this model of a nightgown straps are provided. To make them, use two rectangular strips of fabric, the width of which is 2-3 cm and the length is 45 cm. Fold each strip lengthwise so that the front side is inside, stitch along the edge and turn out. In order not to miscalculate the size of the straps, first make them longer, and then adjust to the desired size by simply cutting off the excess.
Step 4
Decorate your product. Neat gathers can be an adornment for any nightdress. To make them on the central part along the upper edge (the distance is about 0.7 cm), sew two elastic seams side by side with a large stitch width, making sure that the threads of the seams can be moved. Holding the threads of the seams by the edges, carefully gather the central part until the central part is equal in width to the chest.
Step 5
Finish your work. Connect the central part with the chest, sew on the straps. At this stage, it is also possible to use several decorative elements (buttons, bows).
