A beautifully decorated table creates a special, festive mood. An elegant napkin is of no small importance in its decoration. She can say a lot about the mistress of the house. Treat the edges of the serving napkins in an original way and surprise your guests.
It is necessary
- - napkin;
- - needle and thread;
- - lace;
- - hook and thread "Iris" white;
- - a piece of checked fabric or trimming tape.
Instructions
Step 1
The simplest and most popular way to trim the edge of a napkin is hemming. To do this, carefully fold the fabric inside out two times around the perimeter so that the threads do not knock out. Make money and sew on a typewriter. The napkin is ready.
Step 2
A linen or cotton napkin trimmed in this way can be crocheted around. Begin tying with single crochets, and try not to pull the fabric together. Then continue working and make a regular "fan" or other openwork pattern around the perimeter.
Step 3
Fold the edges of the napkin inside out and sweep them. Stitch the finished lace ribbon around the perimeter. Thin synthetic lace is suitable for a cotton napkin. For a linen product, it is better to use a knitted fabric with a width of 1.5-2 cm.
Step 4
The edges of a plain weave napkin can be trimmed with scattering and hemstitching. To peel off, pull out a few warp threads around the perimeter of the garment. This will give you a slight fringe around the edges.
Step 5
For a simple hemstitch, make a hold. First, pick up with a needle and then carefully pull several threads out of the fabric, 1-2 cm from the edge of the napkin. The track can be made the wider, the thicker and stronger the fabric, usually 0.5-1 cm. Perform such delays around the entire perimeter of the product.
Step 6
A dense plain linen napkin with a checkered fabric edging will look beautiful. Cut the finishing material according to the size of the napkin into strips 3 cm wide. In total, you need 8 identical parts for one piece. In this case, be sure to leave 1 cm for the hem.
Step 7
Make two identical "frames" for the napkin, stitching four strips to one another. The seam should go diagonally at the corners on the wrong side of the fabric. Place the resulting pieces together with the right side out. Place a napkin between them. Thread the "frames" onto the base, bending over their edges. Sew on a typewriter. Fold over and sew on the outer edges of the piping.
