Patchwork

Those who do sewing always have a lot of scraps left over that are a pity to throw away. I always want to use them somehow. There is only enough imagination for patchwork blankets, pillows, toys, various potholders and “seats” for stools. But patchwork and quilting are special types of needlework that require certain skills or time to master.
Let's try to sew full-fledged clothes from scraps! If the size of the piece allows you to cut out from it a complete cut of the model you like, then you can end up with a skirt like this or an elegant knitted tunic.

Patchwork



However, it often happens that the desired model does not have many small cutting details. And the sizes of the flaps are not always large enough. In this case, we proceed as follows. We cut all the flaps that match the texture (or color) into rectangles of arbitrary shape. Then we start sewing them together. Be sure to strictly observe the lobar and transverse threads. Otherwise, the canvas may become skewed.



Seal each seam from the inside out using an overlock or zigzag stitch and press to one side. It is advisable to stitch along the front side.



The work is simple, but long and painstaking.In other words, we ourselves make the canvas of the size we need, from which we will later cut out the details of the product. The resulting fabric is ironed again and can be cut.



It is not necessary to sew all the flaps into one fabric. It's very labor intensive. It is better to stitch together small fabrics that are approximately the same size as the pattern pieces.



Make sure that the multi-colored shreds are distributed evenly throughout the product. Further sewing occurs using conventional technology. From the remnants of woolen suiting fabric you can get a jacket like this.



Imagine, sew. Patchwork is in fashion now!
