Headache - a line on knitwear. I’m going to be exhausted. I want, as expected - to flash with a double parallel line, but it does not work. But such a line looks no worse, but it lays down exactly.



1.

2. And here’s a tricky trick: the line in the center is sewn with an inclined zigzag - and it doesn’t pull, it doesn’t wrinkle. And the last line - the result of a straight line of zigzag - I’m just always suffering with it







3. Sponges on both sides help to stitch a long fabric without shifting it and a line







4. To stitch evenly (which means beautifully) the codpiece on trousers / skirt is not always and not everyone succeeds. Sometimes I have to flash twice and then uneven places. And here is how it should be: draw-draw a straight, even line on the tracing paper, pin it on the place that needs to be stitched, and flash it along the line marked on the paper. Sewed - torn off the paper. And quickly, the main thing!

5. Brilliant advice to learn: DIRECTION OF LINE

Especially true for thin fabrics that like to mow (mine). The diagram shows where to start the line, in which direction to sew. It once occurred to me, moreover, I did this sometimes, pretty much tormented at first.







6. But in this way, you can beautifully manually sheathe any hole (for a bag cord, for example)







7. A great way to quickly flash several layers of fabric at once (for example, when sewing bedding, bags) is to fasten them with small clothespins

8. How to sew a strip of fabric so that the lines (stripes) match perfectly

This is so important. This trick for patchwork.

Everything is clear on each picture. And on the last - a seam with a small zag on the front side, so that it’s tight, which is important for the patchwork



9. Another ingenious trick. With pants

Here I have perfectly sitting velvet type jeans, but they rubbed pretty well. Already rarely wear - the shore. And I can’t argue, suddenly it’s impossible to sew similar ones, how then to live. And they are sold only in one store in Rome and only in October. Upset here. It's good that I'm not the only one in this world looking for ways to remove a pattern from trousers.



It turned out that they can be copied without ripping. As assistants, you need to take masking tape. Because you need a tape of low stickiness, so as not to spoil the pants completely. We lay out the trousers on the table, flat as soon as possible. And we begin to lay the tape on the pants, filling it with the entire space of the leg. Noting all the details along the way. Then carefully remove the tape, as one unit, and transfer it to paper. We mark the seam allowances. We do the same with the back leg. With a belt, yoke and other details. The back of the trousers is usually wider than the front, which means we add the tape from seam to seam. This is how the copy is made.

Everything else is a matter of technology. Michelle, author of the idea, thank you very much.



10. The secret of the back pocket of jeans / trousers

turn on the front and iron







14. We place the small back of the blouse with lace. And so that she sat in the shoulders as it should, we make an angle

Fifteen. Almost any thing you need, you can make a side pocket if you really want to. This is how the inner pocket is folded and sewn into a skirt and / or pants







Sixteen. A fairly simple idea that for some reason did not occur to me.

A technique that allows you to not only bend the hem evenly, but also not leave a hem on the right side



17. Smartly! To bend the evenly flared hem, we lay two parallel lines in a wide step, first we collect the bottom line (along the edge of which), then the upper one, adjust, pin, and sew!







Eighteen. And here is the most useful tip in this series. As for me. I don’t like the tight belt of knitted trousers and pajama shorts. She even tried to rip off the belt; it did not work out: everything was very small in the hole. And you just had to cut and sew.
