How to sew a jeans skirt for a girl of magnificent cut?

Since jeans - a constant companion of youth fashion, no young coquette will not give up a denim skirt.

Important! For thin women of fashion, the lush model is the best option, it softens the proportions of the body, gives the right volume in the hips.

Option number 1

One of the best options is a fluffy skirt with frills. For a basis we take old jeans of the girl who became short or torn. The main thing - that they were at a time at the waist.

Procedure:

1. Cut the legs at the level where the back pockets end and the zipper in front.
2. From another fabric( you can take a cut of cotton fabric from an old sarafan) cut out a trapezoidal detail.

Important! The length of the upper part corresponds to the bottom of the future skirt. It should be wider than the lower part by about 10-15 cm. The width of this cut is equal to the length of the skirt( estimate in advance) minus the length of the already finished jeans.

1. On the denim part, we will add frills. They can be made from a wide lace, and you can combine different laces( different widths, colors).And you can cut strips, 5-7 cm wide from any light fabric.

Important! The brighter the fabric of frills, the more beautiful and more effective the result will be a skirt. The length of lace should be more 20-30 cm than the base on which they will be sewn.

1. Process the edges.
2. Ribbon of fabric or lace along the edge, go by a hint to attach, otherwise - the skirt will not come out lush.
3. On the basis of the tape are sewn row by row, starting from the bottom. Each subsequent tier should be 1-2 cm to find the previous one.
4. When handling the ruffles, connect the edges and sew this part to the denim top.

Important! At the junction of jeans and cotton, you can sew another row of thin lace, it will hide all the flaws. In addition, the waistband of a satin ribbon will decorate such a skirt.

Option number 2

Another original model will be a skirt-tutu. In order to sew a denim skirt for a girl with her own hands, you will need a denim top from some old pants or breeches that are just around the waist and hips to the girl, as well as a teardrop cut in a couple of meters( it all depends on the size of the skirt andhow magnificent it should be).

Important! The tulle itself can be monophonic, 2 colors or all stripes can be made in multi-colored. This nuance depends purely on your imagination and preferences.

Procedure:

1. Cut the top of the old jeans at the end of the zipper, somewhere at the edge of the rear pockets( you can and slightly lower if the girl is tall).We work on the bottom of the skirt with an overlock, zigzag.

Important! You can bend the edge and stitch, if the jeans are not very tight.

1. Now cut the tulle into strips 5-7 cm wide.

Important! The length of the strip count as follows: measure how many centimeters are missing from the denim part to the level where the future skirt should end. Multiply the number by two. This will be the length of the tulle strip, since in the assembly of parts these strips will be folded in half.

1. When tulle was cut, densely lay these tapes on the surface of the top of the skirt so that their center coincides with the denim edge.
2. You can put two tapes in one place, let one row find a bit on the next one. So there will be no obvious gaps, and the bottom will be quite lush.

Important! This model of the skirt draws attention from the bottom of the tulle, so it will be superfluous to sculpt some more rhinestones and applications - this will lead to excessive nalapistosti. Suffice it will be a girdle in the tone of the bottom.

Variant №3

The length of the first part should be equal to the volume of the girl's thighs + allowance for the seams of 5-6 cm. The length of the second part should be approximately twice the first, and the third - 50-60 cm longer than the second part.

1. Each strip needs to be machined so that the fabric does not crumble, and sew the ends to make a ring.
2. Take the widest strip, bend the edge to the width of the gum + 1 cm.
3. Sew, leaving a small hole to insert and fasten the elastic band.
