Good morning hivers, I believe you are doing well. I'm here to show you how I made this A line gown.
Materials needed
Here I have my fabric, lining, dull face, Zip, bayas, tread,gum still, tape, chalk, and my scissor .
First thing to do, I measure out my length from the full fabric and fold it by two, i ensure it gives me the size I want and I also fold the other part of the fabric and place it on the first one and I give it one point five inches allowance for zip,measure out my hand pit length by eight inches, measure the burst, sleeve and the neck using my chalk to trace it out.
After tracing it out then I cut it out.
And now for me to cut out the dull face that I will be using for the design at the front, I folded it by two, measure out the neck using the first measurement I used for fabric,then I come down by fifteen inches which is the full length and I used my chalk to trace out a zigzag stitch more like a box.
.
When you cut it out this how it looks.
Then i proceeded to cut out my hand using the fabric more like a triangle shape in fley form.
Then I also cut out the dull face I will be using for the hand which the length is by three inches, I used my chalk to trace it out before cutting it.
Then I proceed to cut out the lining for each part that is needed by placing the fabric on the lining and cut out the exact shape.
After the cutting now, let's move to the sewing.
Before you start with the front, you have to put in your gum still at the black fabric first using your iron to gum it.
I started with the front part and the design, so this is how the bayas looks like.
And for you to sew it on the black fabric you have to fold the by two then you begin the sewing, and it should be at the middle part of the zigzag at the down part, you can also use your ruler to trace it out if you have, but for the didn't use a ruler.
After sewing it all I iron it and this is how it looks.
Then I place it in front of the fabric and Sew it.
After sewing it, you still have to fold the bayas just you did at the front then proceed to sew it round the zigzag, after sewing you iron it and this is what you have.
Now after that I proceed to fix my lining for both side of the gown which is the front and back side. This is the front.
The back side.
Now I move to the hand, I first place in the dull face at the hand and sew the upper side first.
After that I placed the bayas and sew it, after that I came down by one inches and then sew the other bayas also.
After that I lining it and this is it.
After all that I proceed to join the both side of the gown together, fix the hand, and zip and finally here is the A line gown ready.
