Sew covers with their own hands on upholstered furniture means saving money not only once (the prices for stylish bedspreads in stores cause tetanus), but in perspective - a bed, a sofa or armchair under the bedroom will serve a lot longer. Recent importance is here and the possibility of creative expression: a unique and unique product in the house - a sign of the skill and good taste of the hosts.
Capes for furniture are varying degrees of complexity and laboriousness. Start protecting furniture and attach to it best from the bed. It covered on the bed with your own hands to sew easier, and it also expresses the mastery of the hostess in all its glory due to the large visible surface. At home, having a sewing machine and a conventional needlework tool, it is possible to sew covers and lush, pompous, and laconic-elegant, see fig.
The use of modern textile materials (see below) allows for the main difficulty of sewing covered at home - a large size of the finished product. Covered 2x2.5 m can now be sewed without a bar and so on. Sewing production equipment, see eg. Video in 2-parts:
The quilted covered thing is a luxurious, but the sewing product stitch is a labor-intensive and complex: you need to take into account the tightening of 2 or more layers of the cloth on the seam. It is also necessary to pick up fabrics for shutdowns to be carefully so that it stretches about the same. The only key to success here is your own qualifications and experience. Nevertheless, and beginner craftsmen now under the power: you need to sew covers from the finished sealed fabric, it goes on sale as a stitch, 2-layer (without lining, pos. 1 in Fig.) And 3-layer, with lining.
Note: Under the name stitches, it is also sealed in one way or another (see below) Singrytepsum or batting without facial tissue and lining. This 1-layer stitch is applied relatively rarely, because The finished quit "Pie" is only a bit more expensive, and it is much easier to work with it.
Fabric stitch for outerwear and furniture covers are produced in various colors, colors and stitch patterns, see eg. pos. 2. So that without much troubles, it is not only a beautiful, but also durable, when purchasing stitches, you need to pay attention primarily to the way its ease.
The traditional stitch thread (pos. 3) is used, firstly, in very expensive materials for the luxury and luxury covered. Secondly, if the material is relatively inexpensive, the stitch thread indicates that all the layers of the cake are natural, because In other ways (see below), "Nature with Nature" does not stitch. From the inexpensive stitch thread, it is desirable to sew baby bedspreads. It will not be especially durable, but in this case it is not essential, the child is growing. But environmental purity and health care is provided.
The material, semed by the heat carrier (thermosmotrant), can be found in clear edges of the wells, imitating seams and a bit, but evenly swollen fabric between them, pos. 4 and 5. Thermum is always entirely synthetic. Stitches of a thermotype of not very high-quality materials and / or manufactured on a "basement" enterprise have the property of the "Find out", but the seam pattern of a thermosmotor can be as complex and clearer. The corners of the bedspread from the thermal compartment are tightly tightened (pos. 6). The covered from a sufficient high-quality thermal model is well suited to the bedroom of a neat mistress, where there is always an ideal order and where no one falls on the bed in the upper clothes, just come out of the garage.
Ultrasonic stitches (ultrasound) wells are blurred or merged, and the fabric between the swollen seams is stronger and / or uneven, pos. 7. Ultrasound is stronger than a thermotype and less prone to resolveing. Ultrasound can be sewed some natural fabrics with synthetics. The corners of the covers from the ultrasound fell softer, pos. 8. Quilted covered on a sofa, chair, etc. More complex cut (see below) preferably sew from ultrasound.
Note: The 3-layer thermo- and ultrasound are excellent materials for beginner Shvent. To sew from them covered, it is enough to treat the edge (see below), turn edges and strain, pos. nine.
Before opening, the cut of any finished quilted material is stroken with steaming at the minimum iron temperature and maximum steam feed. Such treatment is similar to the decatting of the tissue on industrial equipment and almost eliminates the further shrinkage of the material.
After cutting ready-made quilted materials on the cuts of all parts, it is necessary to cut the protruding package and make an overwhelming, as they say - to complete the edges. If there is no overwriter, overlovka can be replaced with a snake-up (zigzag) on \u200b\u200ba conventional sewing machine. Threads need to be taken from the material of the same kind as the facial tissue (x / b, silk, wool, synthetics). If the edges are not completed, the fabric subsequently crashes on the seam: a small holes are formed around the piercing material of the thread, through which the packing will be shifted.
The bedspread on the bed of 2 layer stitches with a separate lining is sewed as usual, with twists: cuts are folded by a face to each other and along the contour with an indent in 2-3 lasted with a seam, except for the army of 20 cm. Through the armored arm is turned off. , and seam, if necessary, masked with a ruffling with Ryush. Diagram of cutting material for bedspreads with rolling and rushes assembly are given in Fig. The dotted line shows the line on which the rope is sewn to the bedspread. Since the perimeter of the bedspread can exceed 6 m, then the strip on the ruffle will have to be sewed from pieces. Those., Collecting Ryush, you need to verify that the seams connecting the bands fall on the inner folds of the ruffles, so they will not be visible.
Note: In the heads covered, it is customary not to bring the ruffle to its front edge by 30-50 cm so that it turned out that the T. Naz. Ear - Lapel covered in the head of the head. The appointment of the ear covered is primarily decorative - show a beautiful lining. They came up with a covered ear, by rumors, years 200 years ago in elite French brothels - they say, shye clients franks and excites. Maybe the truth. In the intima Frenchwoman, you know.
There is another interesting way to sew a very spectacular quilted 4-layer bedspread. Satin on a lining, a single-layer Vatinovaya stitch, atlas on the face and organza with a large pattern on the tire (these materials!) Are purchased separately and stroke, as described above. Pie material in contours of the pattern of organza fasten with pins. Sanding it on these same contours from face machine with a stitch paw, holding a pie on both sides of the needle with floating large and stable fingers of both hands. This method requires a lot of sewing experience, because Describe the finest movements of the fingers, without which the stitch is accompanied and will pave it, it is impossible. It looks like a royal covered, but it costs expensive, it is easily dirty, it is difficult to wash it and the styrica it can stand it enough, so we will restrict ourselves to a brief description, so to speak, for general development.
The simple method of sewing covered has a serious disadvantage - the stitch material is released to 1.5 m wide. Larger, still do not allow textile technologies - the fabric is then unacceptably stretched. Because of this, in the middle of the bedspread, it turns out to be seam (on the left in Fig.) That is not beautiful.
The output from the position is, if you remember the old anecdot: comes to the tissue store, a luxurious lady. Expensive dressed, purse crocodile, snake skin shoes, jewels with carat stones. "Cut me, kind, 2 Arshina Crow-George!" Cut off. "Now cut across inadvertent!" Cut. "Now - in half along!" Cut. "And now, please, each piece cut into small, here's with the nail of my little girl, Loskutka!" The clerk does not withstand: "Madame, what are you crazy?" - "Yes, and didn't you know? Here, please, I have a certificate from the doctor! "
Patchwork or patchwork style allows you to create masterpieces of sewing art of amazing beauty and semantic significance. Machinery Patchwork has so far developed so much that its vertices are able to achieve not everyone from nature a gifted person, see fig. This section describes the initial technological methods of the Patchwork. Having mastered them, you will feel the technique and how the material behaves in it, which will allow you to go to the products "Publish". It is possible that some of the information will be useful and experienced craftsmen.
The simplest way to sew a patchwork bedspread is a simple rectangular applique based on. For her take quite strong fabric, for example. Canvas, on which squares or rectangles are selected, prepared as described above. It is necessary to sew them to the base to be crossed out (pos. 1 in fig. Right). To avoid outflowing the corners, the seams are most often put up with a braid (pos. 2). If there is a patchwork in a simple applique technique from denim, then aesthetically is the only acceptable method. In other cases, interpose, textile sockets, large buttons or balls made of holofayber, covered with tissue, etc. can be sewed between the corners of the squares.
Another way - color sorting, i.e. It is necessary to disassemble the flaps on the colors, say, in 4 tones, decompose so that everyone is in sight, and sew, smoothly moving from the color to the color (see fig. Left). In this case, the carrying basis is not mandatory. The flaps are stacked with the offline, the nose turns away to the sides, the seams stroke. The precast piece is cut into size and sew covers with twists, see above.
A much more spectacular cobbled of flasks can be sewed in the technique of chaotic-geometric assembly, she is a people-kaleidoscope. Named because it is used by the Kaleidoscope principle: a chaotic bust of which fragments fell, it seems like a certain meaning pattern. Initially, the tapes from the fabric are stapped into the strip (pos. 1 on the next. Fig.) Tapes in the strip can be 2-7 or more. The ribbons are not necessarily necessary, they can be sewn from selected painting of small losses and cut into size in width. The width of the entire band W is taken 25-50 cm based on the width of the bedspread it was placed in an integer time.
The next step - on the template of cardboard, plywood or rigid plastic from the bands are cut squares, pos. 2. You need to cut the roller cutter for fabric. Careful with him, he is sharp, like a safe razor blade! The sliced \u200b\u200bsquares will support the edges, and then the squares fall into a bunch and mixed well - for chaos. Without this, the pattern will be boring. Next, the squares are sewing the strip in the width of bedspread (pos. 3) and stitch them with each other. Ultimately, it turns out something like the fact that four.
If we admit some material overrun, the pattern of a chaotic-geometric patchwork can be made more playful. This requires an already template in the form of a square (pos. 5), and the original strips from a ribbon wide in 1.5 W. The template is applied to the strip with a rotation to an arbitrary angle; It is possible - fixed, say, 15, 30 and 45 degrees, as on pos. 6. Each flap after stirring can lie in the strip for the bedspread in 4 positions corresponding to the rotation of 90 degrees, pos. 7. As a result, the facial surface is like the one that on the pos. 8. Of course, and here we apply the principle of ordered assembly, but then the corners of the direction of the template must be fixed.
Note: From the technique of "striped chaos" it is easy to move to the technique of an ordered geometric assembly. For this, overlined squares are decomposed until the desired pattern is obtained. Details for sewing bedspreads are taken from the layout on one. From an ordered geometric assembly, it is easier to move to the assembly of the petool, and there are many outstanding samples of the patchwork in it. Samples covered the patchwork ordered geometric assembly, see the next. Fig.
So designers-shivery sometimes sinking among themselves are called very beautiful and original bedspreads, shop prices for which just insane. Nevertheless, "indecent" covered quite bye the beginners - handmade in it a lot, but it is simple.
Fabric consumption on "Cucic" (actually - nodule, nodule patchwork) The bedspread lead, adding to the size of the bed in terms of half-width of the cut. Then the cut is cut into squares (see above); Do not pendle the edges!. Next, see fig. After the list:
So that the nodule bedspread looked better, the folds of his fragments need to be more or less regularly to disperse. To do this, a square template with a bandwidth is needed minus the diameter of the contour under the nodule plus 2-4 cm. Each of the side of the template marker marker is placed on 4 equal parts. Details with ready-made nodules are applied to the template, drive folds to the marks and lease 3-4 stitches. As a result, the sewing covered will be a form of approx. such as right in fig.
Bags old jeans are unlikely to have at home, so the material on denim patchwork should be saved. The simplest way to do this is to cut jeans on rectangular flap with sides, multiple 6 cm. Real jeans on the figure are not sewn and never sewn. Their inventor of Levi Strauss did not have a staff of qualified cutters, so the module of the ripple mesh took extremely large - 2 and 1/3 inches, or 5.92 cm. The correspondence of the initial and cutting on the flap modules will give the smallest waste of the material. Jeans is a durable fabric, so that on the cutting and seam chamber 0.92 cm is sufficient, it gives a convenient working module of 5 cm.
Jeans are not only durable, but also warm fabric, so the denim beds are best sewing a single-layer, without lining and packing, then it will fit into the apartment and in the country, and on a picnic. In Overlovka, the edges of the flap of denim fabric is not necessary. Switches of seams are desirable to ripple (see Fig.), It will give 2 style design covers, because Exchange and face Jeans does not differ much. Change their elementary: or one, or the other side up.
The edges of jeans with a steel brush-crawling jeans, having rebuilt the product on the sputter, so as not to damage the main fabric. Koldovka needs welder (plumbing), with rare bunches of direct wires (see fig. Left). Koldovka with a solid crest made of thin twisted wires to clean the power tool will be confused in fabric fibers and tear it.
And what to do if there is not enough cash jeans on the bedspread? Denim sets for Patchwork are on sale, but also prices for them quite correspond to demand. If you need to buy no more than 40% of the material in the area, it can be sewed from old jeans by adding to jeans similar to the properties of x / b fabrics - Biazi, bikes, flannels. In this case, the jeans squares need to be chopped so that the base and ducks are oriented diagonally (below left in Fig.), Otherwise, jeans will pull over a weaker tissue.
Further is understandable from rice: denim squares are framed by the complementary cloth, it will be the elements of the material. The elements are assembled by 4 (2x2) or 9 (3x3) into blocks of the first level, which are also framed by the complementary cloth. In the same way, the blocks of the 2nd level, 3rd, etc., are generated from the first level blocks, until the desired size of the bedspread is reached. The whole is also framed by complementary cloth. The finished product looks very effectively, creating the impression of a 3D lattice, right in fig.
Covered on the sofa is already more difficult to sew, but in this case the problem disappears on the face of the seams - they are easy to disguise in the inner corners of the furniture. In general, the sofa beds are sewn just like a case or cape on furniture. Standard cutting - from 8 parts, without leaf. The bedspread for the chair differs from it only the width of the detail of the seat.
How patterns covered for the sofa are built, shown on the left in Fig. At the top of the right - the dimensions pattern for calculating the flow of the fabric, it is still useful to us below. Details for armrests are performed in the mirror reflection, in the case when the exhaust and face of the main fabric is distinguishable. If the armrests are without collapse, but you want fashionable assembly of their facades (right below), then the patterns of their details of the shock must be launched (shown by pale contour).
Note: Details of the sofa bedspreads are better to first cut out of newspapers, old sheets, etc. Sound material and try on the place to accurately adjust the curvilinear contours.
It is possible to still sewing the bedspread for the sofa from one cut of the tissue. Its width must be at least A in fig. Above plus 30-40 cm, and the length is the amount of 2C + 2D + E + 40 cm. Fabric overrun will be large, and more money is even more, because The size A is rare when it turns out less than 2 m. The tissue of a large width per unit area cost more than the same widths standard. Nevertheless, this option should be borne not only for its simplicity.
The master class on the manufacture of bedspreads for the sofa from one cut of the tissue is shown in Fig. In oval for pos. 3 - seams; They are placed on the place after tights manually. In oval for pos. 4 - stationery buttons with which the fabric is temporarily attached to armrests. Rear scenes (pos. 5) and scorching (pos. 5, 6) are made at the place; Last - with a wide gum for underwear. The undoubted advantage of this covered - the sofa covered by them can stand not only at the wall, but also in the middle of the room; The scenes are completely decorative.
