Very often, beginners to sew ask the following question:

"There are several different photos of finished products in the instructions for your patterns. So what kind of dress is it after all (coat, blouse, trousers, jumpsuit) ???"

The end of the question in brackets depends on the pattern for which the question is asked.

And although for professionals the answer is obvious, but for beginners it is not always clear. In this article, we will analyze my standard short answer to such a question and a detailed answer using the example of a beautiful dress that you see in the photo for this article.


Photo of do-it-yourself skirts for summer according to a simple pattern for beginnersIn this article, see photos of options for beautiful summer skirts with a difference in length, sewn by my subscribers according to one ready-made pdf pattern of a skirt for beginners.

This simple pattern was developed by me specifically for beginners on a pattern - the basis of a flared sun skirt for life-size sizes from 42 to 62. It comes with an accessible step-by-step instruction on how to sew, and it is with such a skirt that you can start sewing your first finished product.

You can sew a skirt for the summer of this style with your own hands according to this pattern, both with a belt and with an elastic band. If this is your first skirt, then I recommend choosing a stretch fabric and sewing on an elastic band, wide or narrow. See how this is done in the video master class in this article.




What is a pdf patternVery often, such and similar questions are asked by visitors to my site, my groups in social networks, who have not previously encountered electronic clothing patterns in PDF format (PDF) files. Many are accustomed to working only with paper patterns, diagrams and drawings of patterns from magazines, books in the form of pictures and sketches for a certain size, indicating centimeters in the pattern or pattern drawing.

What is a full-size electronic pattern in a PDF file (PDF)? How to "fight it", how to print, how to assemble? Why in the drawing of such a pattern do you not see the dimensions of the patterns and the details of the pattern in centimeters?

In this article I will try to answer all these questions that arise for those who for the first time encounter the concept of "electronic pattern in PDF format (PDF)".

In this article I will tell you how and from what to sew women's overalls in the boho style, and also consider the features of a pattern with your own hands in large size overalls.

The sewing difficulty level of most of the presented styles is simple. Using my ready-made patterns and instructions for them, sewing such a jumpsuit with your own hands is quite within the power of beginners who do not have much experience in cutting and sewing this type of women's clothing.
