Basic sewing techniques
By Doshi Nyopon

Finished clothing item is just one step ahead of cut and sewn fabric. The following indicators will be a simple procedure to implement. This process is divided into three stages, namely pre-production, production and post-production.

Pre-production



A. Planning

If you do not have to buy things the family shopping list, you will forget some of the items or you will definitely buy more targeted than the product; the same thing happened to kick off your sewing clothes. It has been found, the tailor, who associations that are designed clothing, color drawings and smart thinking, as well as an idea, he hoped to complete, he will need less money and time made garments, if he is not a simple to bank's fate.

A manufacturer should sit down and paint it with clothing ideas, good design and piecemeal cloth applicator pad. The main page with a sketch to place clothing, like the hook and eye thing and list or trim buttons, embroidery thread and other accessories approximate length. If you have some fabric at home, you want to create a piece of clothing, you want to add, in line with a sketch drawing, so you can choose to compare or differentiate between the fabric material.



The amazing thing is that you do not need any artistic skills, application of this technology. As long as a rough outline, add color, make your list, and now your plan of action ready to follow. You can get someone who has good knowledge of painting, delineation of the types of clothing to create the initial shape. Copy and apply them to draw and color. In any case, you're ready when you go to the fabric stalls, they are running the sale. With a sketch book nearby, you can compare the color of the 1.99 U.S. dollars linen brocade fabric sample of your book, either buy it or leave it.

There is also a model, so this for you, copy the apparel and clothing of several types of images you need and those outlined in your staple food and cloth-like way to work together.



B. Material Selection

Clothing in the 16th century and 17th century created a specific weight to them that is both hands, using the fabric type to create. When the sources said, a special clothing is silk and taffeta lining of production, they say the sound is a very heavy silk taffeta with a crisp silk lining. We can only afford to see a lot of silk soft and thinner than original in this.

This problem can be overcome in two ways. First of all, into a heavy, low-cost materials, reproduction of the appearance of your struggle to complete. Second, if the weight of material is not available, or if you prefer to work with thinner material, you can interlaced fashion.

Lining: Cut as the external coating interlining coating. Brought them together, and deal with them as a single coated fabric at the creation stage. Stretch legs together or as needed.



Three pre-wash

All, without exception, should be given to pre-wash. Although it says 'Dry Clean Only'. First, given a fire test to ensure that no miracle; to pre-wash, then wash everything that is natural fiber and silk and linen to create. Is the main damager dryer fabric wear and tear. Therefore, pre-wash the clothes after drying may be completed, but was drip dry, threw it in the trash until the fabrics used in fabrics to rely on. Before the pre-cleaning, take a small sample of the fabric and fabric and matching, it has been pre-washed and dried. As a general principle, from the production or jacquard upholstery brocade clothing must drip dry. If the clothing is from high-grade cotton, linen or silk is made, it will be washed and dried per normal, until and unless the pre-wash color Swatch that serious losses, reducing or other harmful effects. Then, it would only have to drain.

We can not over-emphasize pre-washing. In the manufacturing stage, is a contemporary fabric is 'size'. The size of the term 'immersion mentioned, most durable fabrics, which provide them with more body and sheen to be pressed through the rollers in the board, then place the transfer to stall. Fabric after washing, the 'size' is washed out of fabric become soft and less gloss.

Shrinkage can also prevent pre-wash. Extension of the most modern fabrics (1 little or a lot, on the quality of banks) in the textile and sizing process. If your fabric is not cut and manufacturing projects before the pre-wash, you will have to drop the project, if you regret it smaller and very harmful way.

The perfect way to determine whether your fabric is made of natural fiber, is a burn test. If you're in a store, not a structural problem for sure, you should ask the cuts, and to take the test burn in the parking lot.



4 Ironing

Because it is not easy to draw wrinkles paper, it is very difficult to all the clothes out of a piece of crumpled cloth. It is wise to iron, and then cutting the fabric.

5 laid fabric

If you are cutting times on the doubles, it is meaningful before the line cut its structure. If pre-cut fabric lining and double-folded, for some parts to complete the food lines were a lot in common, which will create a finished project less effective.

Floor pattern cutting

Food lines can not be taken for granted! You should all parts of his clothing (such as shell, lining and interlining is used at the same time). Avoid the use of pins, use patterns, rather than weight. This will prevent access to burst your model, it makes the process more efficient. The fabric weight of expensive stores, can replace the canned tuna, to provide low-cost, high quality choice. As oil packed tuna fish is not suitable, please select the weight of tuna fish packed spring.
