However, even at the first stage, difficulties may arise, especially among beginners - those who recently joined the art of sewing or sewing, or those who did not previously have a needle and a thread in their hand. Do a pattern, just stitch the fabric on the sewing machine so that the line is straight and straight - from the first time it will not always be for everyone. Therefore, in order to make the sewing process as quick and simple as possible, we will tell how to sew a housekeeper with the help of the latest technology, which will be useful to all skilled craftsmen - both young and inexperienced, and hand-woven needlewomen - a computer sewing machine with a touch screen. If you do not have one, and the acquisition of this miracle of technology is not part of your immediate plans, it does not matter. Following the step-by-step description below, you can easily sew a housekeeper with a conventional sewing machine.
You will need:
- sewing and embroidery machine with built-in computer control (but also suitable);
- upper conveyor;
- an embroidery foot with an LED pointer (you can use the usual one);
- touch pen (you can do without it if the sewing machine is not a computer type);
- linen cloth for the front side - 16x23 cm;
- fabric for lining (any material is suitable, but it is better to use synthetic fabrics, such as viscose or polyester) - 16x23 cm;
- glutinous sintepon - 16х23 cm.
- 2 strips of fabric - 3,5х16 cm and 5х16 cm of different colors.
- 3 multicolored flaps - 2.5 x 2.5 cm;
- thread for sewing and embroidery;
- glue stabilizer for embroidery.
- First we do the workpiece preparation. We lay each other lining, glutinous sintepon, fabric for the front side and iron all three layers.
- Align the rectangle from three layers of fabric to a size of 15x22 cm.
- We prepare the "denticles" for the decor: each square of 2.5x2.5 cm is folded diagonally twice so that we have a triangle (denticle). We connect them one by one, one by one, fixing the denticles along the edge, using a straight line.
- Next, we process the short edges of the rectangle with edging. One edge - narrow edging 3,5х16 cm.
- The second - a wide edging 5x16 cm, in which you need to insert denticles.
- For making stitches we use a very convenient laser guide in order to make perfectly smooth lines without drawing and drawing. Decorative seams in the center are made with the help of the upper conveyor (it allows you to better control the flow of material on "puffy" products or problem surfaces) and the laser guide - with it you can make perfectly even parallel decorative stitches.
- In the absence of a computer-controlled sewing machine, first draw on the fabric (on the back) a simple pencil of lines through which we will keep a line, and only then carefully perform it.
- Now we are doing embroidery. We prepare everything necessary:
- we set the embroidery foot with the LED pointer (to make it very clear where the needle will drop);
- We fix the glue stabilizer in the hoop (this method makes it possible to perform embroidery on small items);
- remove the protective paper from the adhesive side;
- attach the product to the adhesive side of the stabilizer;
- at a distance of 4 cm from the edge of the mark.
10. Finally, the final assembly of the product. Fold the workpiece with the wrong side up so that the machined edges are located on top of each other. We grind the edges, in the middle we tie a tape with a ring. We process the edges of the over-seam and turn them out.
An exclusive housekeeper is ready! Of course, all this work can be done on a sewing machine easier, which does not have such innovative functions, or even sew a housekeeper, as they say, "on hands" - without using the technology at all. But we wanted to show how using modern tools to make the sewing and embroidering process as easy as possible.
