Blouses and dresses with lantern sleeves have long and firmly entered the wardrobe of a modern woman. The most eminent designers in their collections offer things with this particular detail. Why don't you try to sew yourself a new thing with a sleeve of such a model?
Instructions
Step 1
So, if you decide to sew a dress or a blouse with sleeves-lanterns, then first build a pattern for the dress itself or a blouse with sleeves, and only then build a pattern for a sleeve-lantern from the main pattern of the sleeve of the product. It is constructed as follows.
Step 2
Circle the already built main pattern of the sleeve of the product, and then draw a middle line on it. Next, set aside the desired sleeve length along it (approximately the length will be 20-35 cm), and then draw a straight, horizontal line through this point.
Step 3
Now cut out the finished pattern and cut straight along the midline. Then push apart the resulting halves of the sleeve pattern at a distance of 10-20 cm in order to get the assemblies. To make the shape of the flashlight sleeve take on a certain roundness, simply lengthen the sleeve by about 1.5-2.5 cm from the bottom and top directly along the middle line. That's it, the pattern of the flashlight sleeve is ready. Only when cutting be sure to take into account the seam allowances.
Step 4
There is also such a method to create a flashlight sleeve. Take the main pattern and draw the cut lines on it from the head and not reaching the bottom of the sleeve by a couple of centimeters (the first line is applied in the center of the sleeve). Along the head, set the points so that they are at a distance of 4 cm from each other, and at the bottom at a distance of 2 cm, connect them with lines and make cuts.
Step 5
Slide the pattern on the material along the cut lines by 2 cm along the head of the sleeve, the bottom should correspond to the volume of the arm, to do this, simply bevel the side lines of the bottom of the sleeve. Set the length of the sleeve from its high point, it will be about 20-25 cm. Collect the head of the sleeve on a needle in 2-3 rows and distribute the assemblies evenly. Done.
