We sew a swimsuit based on DG

Send

In this workshop I will tell you how I sewed a hydrangea swimsuit from the DG collection.

To create this swimsuit you will need:

Printed supplex - 70 cm (width 140 cm)
A flap of a thin monophonic biflex for a lining - about 50x70 cm (you can use knitwear oil)
Elastic band for processing the upper back and leg cutouts - about 1.5 meters
Tracing paper for pattern
Scissors, threads, pins
Sewing machine
Overlock (you can do without it).

I sewed my swimsuit mainly on an overlock, but if you don’t have one, you can use a regular sewing machine and special knitting needles.
So let's get started.
1. First you need to decide on the pattern. You can use the usual basic pattern (maybe in some old releases of Burda there are such). It is necessary to trim the pattern in height to the armholes. The front part must be extended in height in order to assemble in the side seams. And finish 2 straps. My pattern looks like this:

2. We cut out all the details with a fold from the printed biflex. From a monophonic biflex - the front part of the swimsuit BEFORE you spread it for assembly.

3. The details of the ties are folded with the front side inward and stitched open cut. We twist and gently align the corner.

4. On the front part of the swimsuit we add side slices so that their length coincides with the length of the side slices of the back and the lining part.

5.We cut off all the details of the swimsuit (except the ties) along the transverse seam between the legs so that, when twisting, the seam itself is between the front part of the swimsuit and the lining. Flashing.

6. We tie the details of the ties to the top of the leotard with the front side to the front side at the same distance from the center of the front. I have it 0.5 cm in each direction.

7. We add the details of the swimsuit as in the photo, so that when stitching the top of the swimsuit and lining, all the seams remain inside.

8. We chop off the upper front part of the swimsuit and the lining. Flashing.

9. Turn the swimsuit through the side seam.

10. Cut off the elastic band to process the upper edge of the backrest shorter than the main part by about 3 cm. Pin and sew a little pull.

11. We turn off the sewn-in gum to the seamy side and stitch off the zigzag stitch. The settings of my machine in the photo.

12. Cut off the elastic bands for the treatment of leg cuts shorter than the main parts by about 3 cm. We pin and sew on slightly by pulling. AT THIS STAGE, WE DO NOT SEW CUTS FOR ZIG-ZAG!
