Vest pattern with description of the construction of the basis

Waistcoats are worn by everyone - from small to large. They look great with trousers, with strict straight skirts, and form an integral part of the formal and business style of clothing. In addition, they are sewn in free and in sports styles. The design of the waistcoat - female, male, children's and others - will be presented below.

Female vests

Using one pattern, you can sew several styles of vests, changing the fabric, the location and shape of the pockets, the appearance of the collar, finishing and processing the fabric. Using the ready-made pattern-base of the dress and slightly edited it, we get a drawing for sewing a classic vest. The base will help to design a pattern in a short time and greatly simplifies the process of cutting.

How to build a pattern of vests, you can see here.

Let's look at some examples of size patterns.

Let's stop now on a fur waistcoat.

It is made of padding and fur. We take the measurement from the coverage of the chest. The pattern of the fur vest is built without seams. The neck, armholes, darts can be drawn using your vest size, attaching it to the pattern basis. The last move to fur from the wrong side. Open the lining on the prepared patterns. Fur and lining parts of the pattern are squandered together. Lastly, sew a collar and buttons or hooks. Fur vest with their own hands is usually made of artificial fur. Probably, due to its high price and some features, only professional seamstresses decide to work with natural material.

Pattern for girls

The pattern of the vest for the girl is calculated for the age of 9-11 years and the girth of the chest is 68-72 cm. For its construction, a table suitable for the sizes of children's clothes is useful.

Let's start the construction from the back. Draw a section OH 56.5 cm. From the point "O", lay down the length of the OG 21.5 cm. From the three points, draw along the line perpendicular to the vertical line. From the point "O" postpone the segments, as shown in the figure: 8;2; 10;then 4 cm. Draw a line of the neck in the form of a curve and draw a line of the shoulder. Next, we work with the point D. From it, lay off to the right a segment of ГГ1 17 cm and Г1Г2 5.5 cm. Then we construct a segment Г1П1 4 cm. Connect the points "П" and "П1".To get the armhole line, smoothly connect the points "P1" and "G1".Similarly, drawings of shelves and pockets are made.

This product takes 1.5 m of fabric in width and 85 cm in length. Be sure to make allowances for seams, the hem of the bottom and the zipper or clasp. The ready-made item can be decorated with strips of fabric, appliqué, embroidery, decorative buttons, etc. If desired, you can sew a hood to it or use a collar.

The entire sewing process consists of several steps: taking measurements with calculations, patterning, cutting and assembling of parts. Each of them must be performed correctly and accurately, without sparing effort and time, so that later it would not be painfully painful from the result obtained.
