Instructions
Step 1
The sundress is one of the most demanded clothes for pregnant women. You can put on a knitted turtleneck under it and wear it in the cold season. Cut such a thing out of a warm, soft fabric. If you sew a sundress for a pregnant woman from a light cotton or knitted fabric, then the new dress will help the girl withstand hot weather comfortably.
Step 2
After you have decided on the type of fabric, you need to calculate how many meters to buy. Take a centimeter and measure the distance from the point of intersection of the neck and shoulder to the desired length of the future product. This is usually the bottom of the knee. Multiply the resulting value by 2 and add 12 cm to the result. This is how much fabric you need to buy.
Step 3
After that, start cutting it. A sundress for a pregnant woman consists of a front yoke, a back yoke and two more details - a back and a shelf. Take a tracing paper, attach it to the pattern, and redraw all the details onto this transparent paper.
Step 4
Fold the fabric in half. All details are symmetrical, therefore, only their halves are given on the pattern. This means that the center of the paper pattern is the fold line. Place it on the fold of the fabric. Position all 4 pieces in the same way, aligning the center vertical line of the paper backing with the fold in the fabric.
Step 5
When you lay out the parts, leave a distance between them. For the hem of the bottom, leave 3 cm (both on the back and on the shelf). For the side seams, add 1-1.5 cm. You can arrange all 4 parts in the following sequence: first - the front yoke, under it - the back yoke, below - the shelf, under it - the back. Sketch the fabric over the paper backing, but cut out the seam allowances.
Step 6
In sundresses for pregnant women, the shelf is much wider than the back, so that the tummy is roomy and you can wear this thing even when it grows even larger. Collect the top of the shelf with a thread using a needle so that this part becomes equal to the length of the lower part of the front yoke. Fold these two pieces together and sew them on a typewriter. It turned out to be an integral part of the front.
Step 7
Gather the backrest detail too, but quite a bit and stitch it in the same way along with the backrest shelf. The result is 2 parts - a shelf and a back. Fold them right over and stitch on both sides on the wrong side.
Step 8
Treat the armhole, neckline with a bias tape cut from the remains of the main or other fabric. You can buy these diagonally cut inlays at a dry goods store.
Step 9
Sew the bottom of the product on your hands with a blind seam. Iron, strip the seams and try on a new outfit that will make you even more charming.
