The button closure is good for everyone, however, problems can arise with it. For example, a branded button has come off, and there is no other such button either at home or in the store. You can, of course, replace all the buttons, but the style will be different. You found similar buttons, but they are smaller and slip out of the loops. In this case, the most reasonable thing to do is to reduce the loops, no matter what they are.
It is necessary
- - threads corresponding in color and quality to those of which the loops are made;
- - a needle that fits the thread.
Instructions
Step 1
There are several types of loops on clothes. Depending on this, choose a method to reduce them. If these are air loops, then they must be completely redone. If you just sew them in, they will look rough. Cut the loop and remove the threads completely. As a rule, such loops are made on thin clothing. Align both ends of the thread threaded into the needle, but do not tie a knot. Thread the thread into the fabric and pull the thread, leaving a rather long end. Secure the thread to the edge of the fabric with a few small stitches. Make a buttonhole of the desired size, insert the needle into the edge of the fabric, step back a few millimeters from the first stitch, and fasten the thread again with a few small stitches. Align the free end of the thread with the loop. Overcast the buttonhole with a buttonhole, closing the end of the thread. Tie a knot where the buttonhole touches the fabric. Cut off the remaining end of the thread.
Step 2
When reducing the steering loops, select the threads to match the color of the steering wheel. Flip the work over with the wrong side facing you. Bend the bar to the desired depth, aligning the fold with the point where the bar is stitched to the fabric. Secure the bar in position with a few small stitches. Sew its fold to the seam with which it is sewn to the detail.
Step 3
Dart and overcast loops are reduced in the same way. For tuck loops, the threads must be matched to the color of the fabric, and for overstitch loops - the color of the overedge. Hide the knot in the corner of the loop from the wrong side. Sew the overcasting stitches together to the desired length. In this case, you can use a needle-forward seam or repeat existing stitches, grabbing the edge of the fabric as well. If the stitches are tucked in, sew the edges of the piping together with a blind stitch.
