How to learn to make a tunic pattern

Instructions

1

In the upper left corner of the paper for the patternPut a point. To the right and down from it, draw a horizontal and vertical line. Using a centimeter tape, measure the length of the tunic sleeve. To do this, attach one end of the tape to the neck (between the clavicles), and the other end up the arm raised parallel to the floor to the desired level. Postpone this segment from the point along the horizontal ray. Then the end of this line is lowered 3 cm down.

2

Determine the depth of cutout of the tunic front and back. First measure the distance from the shoulder (directly at the neck) down to the desired level. As much as centimeters away from the starting point of the drawing down. Then do the same measurement for the back and reflect the result on the pattern. To the right, measure the width of the cutout horizontally. It can be 7 cm or more. The points obtained on the horizontal and vertical points are connected by smooth arcs.

3

On the vertical, lay down the length of the tunic. To learn it, put a centimeter tape from the shoulder on the chest down to the desired level. Usually the tunic closes the thigh or descends below. Measure the same amount in the drawing.

4

Do not tear off the pencil from the paper,Horizontal line to the right. Its length should match the width of the future wardrobe. Determine the girth of the hips, divide by 4 and add to the result of 5-10 cm. The number of additional centimeters affects how free will be as a result of the tunic. Place the same distance on the diagram at the waist level.

5

Return to the point that indicates the endSleeves. From it vertically downward, set aside the width of this part of the blouse. On average, it can be 10-15 cm. This point is connected by a smooth concave line with the ends of the segments on the waist line and the bottom line of the tunic.

You can sew tunics of different cuts usingThis pattern. Do the waist at the waist or under the chest so that the clothes are not so loose. Increase the width of the cutout and move it to one side to strip the shoulder. Make the bottom of the tunic asymmetric, cutting it at an angle.
