A dress for a little girl is an important wardrobe item that allows a girl to be different from boys, and also gives both mother and child plenty of room for imagination. With the help of a beautiful and elegant dress, a girl can try on a variety of roles, and tailoring an elegant dress becomes especially relevant when the holidays are approaching, and the child needs a comfortable, practical and original outfit. You can sew for a girl a spacious and beautiful elegant dress based on a round yoke, and then use a similar pattern for sewing not only festive, but also everyday dresses.
Instructions
Step 1
The dress pattern for a girl is very simple - such a dress consists of a round yoke, which plays the role of the upper part of the dress, as well as the front and back half of the dress. Both halves can be made wide and flared without forgetting about small armholes. The wider you make the hem of the dress, the more beautiful the fabric assembly under the yoke will be.
Step 2
Make a round yoke from fabric with lining and reinforcing sizing, and then take a wide hem and first at the front and then at the back, process the armholes. In order to sew the hem to the yoke, do not completely sew the front and back of the yoke.
Step 3
Between the right and the wrong side of the yoke, place the top edge of the hem that you have already pleated with the gathering foot, and then sew the yoke along with the hem.
Step 4
Do the same with the second half of the yoke - stitch the back of the dress to it by gathering the top edge and placing it between the front and back sides of the fabric.
Step 5
When sewing the hem to the yoke, make sure that both sides are sewn symmetrically. To do this, you can mark the yoke from the inside with tailor's chalk, marking the middle and sides. Re-stitch the yoke with the hem.
Step 6
After that, sew the side seams of the dress - from the bottom edge of the hem to the armhole. Decorate the hem of the dress with flounces and frills, sew appliques, beads, beautiful embroidery on it - and an elegant dress will delight your child for a long time.
