Different styles and colors of this simple gizmo can create a unique style, from hooligan sports and ending with a strict and elegant. Of course, cut plays a huge role, and it's about the possibilities of modeling that we'll go further.
A real find of designers was a model such as a skirt-tulip. The template for this product is created on the basis of a simple pattern straight skirt. But the landing of such a model favorably differsoriginality from all other variations. And that is why the season is the favorite among fashionistas is the skirt-tulip. Pattern (you can create it yourself with the help of the description below) is quite simple to perform, so even an aspiring master will be able to master such a product.
As already mentioned, the pattern of skirts-tulipsis based on the template of the direct model. Therefore, in order to sew a fashionable new thing, you must first build a pattern of a straight skirt. To do this, you need to remove the following measurements from the figure:
Create a drawing is best or on a piece of wallpaper,or on the cut of a dense construction film with a permanent marker. Its lines will not disappear on polyethylene and will be bright enough on paper. First draw a right angle with two rays: vertical is equal to the length of the product, horizontal - half the circumference of the thighs. Half of the front and rear shelves will appear in the drawing. Further along the vertical, you should fall down in accordance with the "height from waist to hips" measure and from the resulting point draw a parallel to the existing horizontal. The upper line will be the waistline, the lower one - the hips.
To get a pattern of skirts-tulips withan excellent fit, you should not overlook the thawed darts in the drawing of a direct model. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the difference between the girth of the hips and waist and distribute this value to the darts along the side seam and the back shelf of the product. Each dart should not be deeper than 1.5 cm. And the peaks must necessarily be 5 cm from the hip line. On the front of the side seam to the fold of the shelf it is necessary to remove one and a half centimeters for a more accurate fit of the product over the abdomen. It should also be noted that in the side seams you can pick up up to 2.5 cm of the difference in the value of the circles.
After the preparation of a straight skirt is ready,you can proceed with the design of the desired shape. The pattern of skirts-tulips, as a rule, is understated to the line of knees. Therefore, the first thing to do is to cut down the side seam on both halves by about 5-7 cm. Next, the blanks are cut out and the vertical stripes are delineated on the details. The first comes from the fold line of the shelf at a distance of 2.5 cm, the rest - at a distance of 5 cm from each other. This value is not constant and can be changed depending on the desired depth of folds along the waist line. The classical pattern of skirts-tulips provides a strictly vertical direction of the lines, but you can experiment with the slope. Subsequently, the resulting verticals are cut, not reaching the bottom, approximately 0.5 cm. The elements of the pattern are moved apart by a distance similar to the width of the strips and fixed in this position with tape. At the same time, the bottom of the product is twisted by an arc. The next step is to lay the bow folds at the waist according to the size of the strips and the indentations between them.
If you need a pattern of a skirt-tulip with pockets,then the entrance to them is made either by the center of the inner bow of the fold, or in the side seam of the skirt. In such a model, slit or oblique side pockets are most often performed. The sacking is done deep enough so that the pocket is not useless.
This is how they build a pattern, according to which the skirt-tulip is sewn. Patterns with their own hands are constructed quite simply. A little perseverance, confidence - and you can start to open the canvas.
Using the obtained modernized patternskirts, you can sew a great dress with a fitted tight bodice. There are a lot of options for designing such a product. In it, you can make hanging sleeves that are ¾ long, or flap them to the wrist. You can also make a summer version with a wide shoulder, which will look like a half-mitten sleeve. The dress pattern with a tulip skirt includes the skirt pattern itself, as well as the top and sleeve.
To make the top you need to remove additional measures: girth and chest height, shoulder width and back.
The easiest way to make the top of the dresslies in the fact that on a knitted fabric folded in half, you need to mark on the fold half of the chest girth and the midline. From her semicircumference of the neck and in the sides - the width of the shoulders, slanted by 1.5 cm and elongated by 5-7 cm. Further from the shoulder line at the neckline, the breast line should be noted and along it the edge of the armhole should be marked. The bottom seam of the sleeve must come out of the side seam of the top. On the waist line, several darts should be made according to the difference in chest girth and waist circumference. If the breast is not very large, then, if you use a knitted fabric, you will not need additional darts, but you need to insert a secret zipper into one of the side seams.
