Sewing clothes for beginners. Basic rules for cutting and sewing products for beginner craftswomen

The pattern is the basis of the future dress, skirt, trousers or shirt. How to learn to cut on your own? What does it take to create a proper basic pattern? You will find the nuances of constructing drawings, recommendations for cutting and sewing in this article.

How to learn to cut yourself: general recommendations

The first thing to do before creating a pattern is to prepare a sketch of the product. It must contain the smallest details of the future item, be accurate, and carefully drawn. Then you need to choose the material from which the wardrobe item will be made.

To create a pattern you will need to prepare the following tools:

· masking tape for adjusting the pattern;

· cutter's ruler made of transparent plastic or plexiglass;

· copy roller with needles;

· pencil (for whatman paper – hard, for graph paper – soft);

· measuring tape (up to 150 cm);

· eraser;

· tailor's and stationery scissors;

· rectangular ruler;

· pattern ruler for drawing curved lines;

Whatman paper or graph paper.

Once the tools are prepared, you can begin taking measurements. To create a skirt pattern, you will need the hip circumference, waist and length of the product. When creating a pattern for a dress, trousers and shorts, more measurements are used.

When creating a future wardrobe detail, keep in mind that all drawings are made with a margin. This is done so that the finished product does not tighten the body and is slightly loose. The amount of increase in freedom of fit depends on the proportions of the model’s figure.

When sewing something, you don’t need to blindly trust patterns from magazines, since the finished product may not fit in size. Be sure to process the drawings, entering your parameters, and adjust the workpiece to your own proportions. While working with fabric, it must be periodically steamed and ironed.

How to learn how to cut a pencil skirt is described in detail in the video below. A basic grid is constructed on paper, onto which the measurements taken are transferred. To create a drawing, use the semi-hip circumference (Sb), the semi-waist circumference (W), and the length of the skirt. Half girths are equal to half the girth, that is, the indicators are divided in half and entered into the drawing. The length of the product is plotted from the top of the drawing.

The hip line (18-20 cm) is drawn from the waist line, then the side line is drawn, after which the dart solution is drawn.

To calculate it, subtract the half-circumference of the waist from the half-circumference of the hips, divide the result in half and transfer it to paper

Then a dart is built on the front half of the product, for this purpose the waist is lowered. Darts are divided smoothly.

When the drawing is ready, patterns are cut out from it. They are placed on the fabric folded in half (closer to the fold), fixed and outlined with a seam allowance. The patterns are placed next to each other, just like in the drawing. After which the skirt blank is cut out, its edges are fastened with needles.

Once you have mastered the types of hand stitches, you can start sewing. Master classes will help you sew a handkerchief, fold it, tie a neckerchief, first creating this accessory.

Types of seams

Even if you don't have a sewing machine yet, you can create things using a needle and thread. First master simple stitches, then you can use finishing stitches to decorate your products.


The basting seam is one of the simplest; it is used for preliminary connection of parts.


  1. If you say to yourself: “I want to sew, where to start?” - by threading a thread into the eye of a needle. Now tie a knot in it if you are sewing with one thread. But for beginners it’s easier to start with a double thread so as not to get confused. To do this, connect the ends of the thread, align them, and make one knot.
  2. Pierce the fabric from the wrong side with the tip of the needle, bring the tool to the front side, pull it up so that the knot remains on the wrong side. After retreating 7 mm, run the needle in the opposite direction to bring it to the wrong side.
  3. You will have a 7mm stitch on your face. You can make it a different size - 5–10 mm. Sew the entire line in this manner.
  4. If you are joining two pieces, then fold them right sides together and make this seam on the wrong side.
  5. Make your stitches wide enough. After all, when you then sew the main seam on a machine, the preliminary basting needs to be unraveled.
The basting stitch must be made with threads that differ in color from the main fabric. If you use black fabric, then use white threads and vice versa.

Practice to master this simple science. Now you can go further, telling us what other types of hand stitches exist.

The running stitch is made with threads of the same color as the fabric. Once you master it, you will be able to sew by hand, without using a machine. To ensure the job is done efficiently, secure the thread well. To do this, start your work with two small parallel stitches. Next, perform them on the same horizontal line, making sure that the stitches and the distance between them are the same size.


To secure the thread at the end, sew a back stitch. See how it's done.

  1. Also start working with two parallel seams, then bring the needle to the front side, make a stitch 5 mm long.
  2. The needle is on the wrong side, make another seam here of the same length, bring the needle to the face, pierce the fabric with it in the opposite direction.
  3. Complete the entire line this way. If you do it evenly and carefully, it will look like a machine seam.
  4. You can adjust the stitch length as you wish, making it a little shorter or a little longer. The main thing is that they are the same size.
If you don't have a serger, secure the edges of the product using a blanket stitch. At the same time, they will not fray, and the created item will look neat both from the front side and from the back.


As you can see, having stepped back from the edge of the product 5–7 mm, you need to pierce the fabric here with a needle, make an arcuate movement with your hand, then perform exactly the same stitch, which will be equal in size to the first one. Between them you will have a small arc of thread, which will beautifully decorate the edges of the product. Continue in the same manner, making parallel stitches.

These are the main types of hand stitches that will be needed to perform sewing work. Speaking of where to start sewing, we can say that by remembering how they are done. After this, it’s time to move on to other types of processing of fabric products.

Auxiliary stitches for beginners

If you need to transfer a marking from one part to another, you will sew along it, connecting these two blanks, then open the seam located between them. And the desired outlines will be reflected on two details at once.


In this photograph, this copy seam, which is also called “snatch” in another way, is indicated by the number 3, and by the number 2 is the gasket seam. It is similar to basting (Fig. 1), but the distance between the stitches is less than the stitches themselves.

Further, under the number 4, the transfer seam is indicated. It is used to adjust the pattern or connect parts that have shaped cuts. To do this, a cut is bent on such a workpiece, aligning it with the face of the second part. Secure it in this place with pins.

Then these blanks are swept away, making parallel injections, the distance between which is 2–5 mm.

At number 5a 5b there are seams for processing the edges of parts, such as waves, frills. This is a round seam. To complete it, you need to bend the cut 3-4 mm to the wrong side and pick up 2-3 threads. To speed up the work, you can not tighten them, but do this after completing 20–30 or more stitches.

You are already familiar with the static seam (Fig. 6), above it was called “back needle”, which is the same thing. Marking is also called “by the needle” (Fig. 8). The technique for doing it is similar to stitching, but you need to leave the same distance between the stitches.

Some of the types of hand stitches presented below will help to finish the edges of the product.


If you are using thin fabric, then hem them using an oblique overlock stitch and press them (Fig. 1 a). That is, both edges of the product are ironed in one direction.

The next type of their design requires ironing in different directions. This is an oblique overlock seam, pressed (Fig. 1 b).

To make a buttonhole stitch (Fig. 2), first make diagonal stitches in one direction, then in the other.

You are already familiar with the buttonhole stitch (Fig. 3).

The next one is an open simple sewing stitch (Fig. 4). Having turned the edge of the product, guide the thread diagonally, you will hem it.

To prevent the threads from being visible on the front side, here you need to take only a few fibers from the underside of the fabric with the tip of the needle. This is how a blind hem stitch is made (Fig. 5).

In order to neatly and beautifully decorate the bottom of the product, it is better for beginners to first tuck it evenly and secure it with a basting (Fig. 6), and only then hem it.


A figured hemming stitch will allow you to sew it on the back side of the product so that the elements look like even crosses (Fig. 7).

Frequently used terms in sewing

Decoding them will help beginners understand which stage of work is meant.

  1. Sweep away- this refers to the temporary joining of sections using simple running stitches. Such seams are used to then be sewn on a machine or during fitting, then the item will fit well on the person for whom you are creating it.
  2. Baste- means attaching a decorative detail to the base, for example, a neck facing, a pocket.
  3. Serve- this is to process the edges of the seam to prevent the fabric from fraying.
  4. Sweep in, means connecting the parts along rounded lines. For example, sew a sleeve into the armhole, a collar into the neck.
  5. Sew on- this is to attach hooks, buttons, braid, buttons with a few stitches.
  6. Hem, means attaching the edge of a product, for example, the bottom of a shirt, using hidden stitches.
  7. Lay a snare- this is to make stitches to form small loops of 5–7 mm in order to transfer the chalk line from one workpiece to a second identical one, for example, to mark a dart from the left shelf to the right. These terms are used when sewing by hand. When using a sewing machine, you also need to know what certain words mean.
  8. Stitch- connect the cuts with a simple seam.
  9. Turning- This is the processing of the edges of parts with a simple seam. For example, trim the sides with hems and the flaps with lining.
  10. Stitch, means to connect a small part with a larger one using a stitch. For example, sew pockets, wedges, cuffs. Sewing will be easier for beginners if they learn other terms found in descriptions of patterns and products.
  11. Hem- this means folding the edge of the part and stitching it. This is how the bottom of trousers, shirts, and shirts is hemmed.
  12. Stitch, means making a finishing stitch on the front side, parallel to the edge of the part. This is how a pocket is sewn to trousers or a skirt, a yoke to a bodice.
  13. Stitch in, if you come across such a term, you will know that you need to sew a collar to the neck or a sleeve to the armhole.
  14. Unstitch- iron with a steamer and sew two lines with a finishing seam on the front side near the main seam.
Now you are familiar with the basic terms, seams, this will be very useful when you create various things from fabric. Let's start with simple examples. You need to practice so that the stitching is even.

Handkerchief: where to start sewing

You must have such a thing with you. It would be good if a woman’s scarf was trimmed with lace or designed differently. It is better to take natural cotton fabric for it, which absorbs well. Also, a handkerchief can be an item of decoration for a men's suit, then both types of fabrics should be combined.

To sew a handkerchief, take:

  • piece of cloth;
  • a needle;
  • scissors;
  • ruler;
  • chalk;
  • spool of thread to match.


After you have prepared everything you need, you can get to work to sew a beautiful accessory for your beloved man.


Using a ruler, mark a square of the desired size from the corner of the canvas. It can be a rectangle with a side from 25 to 43 cm. But for a man it is better to take the maximum size.

Iron the edges of the future scarf on all sides to the wrong side by 4 mm. Turn it in again by 5 mm and iron again. As a result, the edge of the product will be inside the seam, so the fabric will not fray when cut. Sew from the wrong side, parallel to the hem line.


You can first fold the edges of the handkerchief twice and pin them together. When you make a stitch, gradually take them out and pin them into the needle bed.


By the way, you will simply need this item. Read.

If a men's handkerchief is your first such project, and you have never sewn on a machine before, then you need to talk about it in even more detail. Carefully lift the foot and needle, lower the foot, then the sewing machine needle by hand. Make three stitches forward, then set the feed control in the opposite direction, sew backward, thereby securing the beginning of the stitch.

Trim the ends of the handkerchief on all sides. To secure the thread well at the end, also sew a little back, then forward. Rotate the wheels, raise the needle, then the presser foot. Cut the thread from the starting side and the end of the stitch. Now you have it well secured.

See how to fold a handkerchief.

Presidential fold


Place the scarf in front of you, bring the left side to the right to fold it in half vertically. Fold the scarf horizontally in the same way. Place it in your pocket so that the neat fold line is at the top.

Two corners

Here's how to fold a handkerchief using this method.


First, also roll it vertically and horizontally. Now pull the bottom corner up, creating a triangle. In this case, position the upper corners so that the lower corner is slightly visible from under it. Place its right edge on the left one bent inward. Turn it over and put it in your pocket so that the top corners peek out.


If you want to make a women's handkerchief, then its dimensions should be smaller than those of men's. Once you have stitched it on all four sides, place a small lace band on top and stitch it to cover the seam of the handkerchief. If you want to make flounces, then add folds after a certain number of centimeters. You can first gather the braid onto a thread, tighten it, and then sew such a lush decoration along the edge of the handkerchief.

This is where to start sewing for those who are just learning the basics of this interesting wisdom.

There are other things that are easy to do. If you are thinking about how to tie a neckerchief, you should sew it first. Of course, you can buy this wardrobe item, but it is not always easy to find a neckerchief of the right size and color. If you like the fabric, it is better to purchase it and make this item yourself.

Before tying the neckerchief to create it, take:

  • fabric sheet measuring 85 by 130 cm;
  • scissors;
  • thread and needle;
  • sewing machine;
  • iron;
  • measuring tape;
  • chalk.
Once you have cut the fabric according to the required markings, fold it in half to form a trapezoid with sides of 85, 65, 85 and 45 cm.


In this case, the front sides will be on the inside, and the back sides will be on the outside. Having retreated 5 mm, stitch on three sides, through the fourth, shortest one, you need to turn this workpiece right side out. Now tuck the edges of this hole inward by 7 mm, stepping back from the edge 5 mm, and sew this slot.


Let's make a tightening seam. Thread a double thread into a needle with a thick eye, fold it in half, and tie a knot. As a result, you have four threads. Sew along the machine stitch on your hands from one end to the other, but try not to pierce the scarf through, pull out the thread.


To fix the scarf in this position, without cutting this tightened thread, sew it in the opposite direction. Tighten again here.

Pass a ruler inside the resulting curtain. Sew these loops on your hands on one side, as well as in the center, only then cut the thread.


This is how the neckerchief turned out.


You can dress it in completely different ways, transforming yourself and your attire. See how to tie a neckerchief using different methods.


Thread a wide edge through the loop and straighten it or leave one end free.


And if you stick only a small corner into the drawstring, you can straighten the large one and lower it down to show all the beauty of the neckerchief.


Also, this large angle can be on the back, for example, to cover the open back of an evening dress for the time being or simply decorate a plain turtleneck. Place the neckerchief in ruffles at the front.


You can add symmetry to the large edge of the handkerchief, which is opposite the loop, straighten it to get this result.


To know even more about this topic, watch the video review, which talks about the types of machine seams.

Using the example of creating a bed set, familiarize yourself with linen seams.

Sewing is a form of creativity that requires utmost attention and a certain set of skills.

Before you devote all your free time to sewing, you need to decide on your goals. What exactly do you want to learn how to sew: clothes, toys, bags, interior details?

Having defined a goal for yourself, start moving towards it without retreating a step. But as in any type of needlework, a beginner cannot do without introductory lessons. Therefore, this topic will be useful for those who are just starting to master sewing on a machine.

Sewing lessons for beginners: preparation for work

Before we start, we need to prepare everything we need for sewing.

Scissors. Tailor's scissors are the most important tool in sewing. That is why the quality of this tool must be the highest. With these scissors you will cut both thick coat fabrics and thin flowing ones. Plus, you should also have regular office paper scissors in your arsenal.

Seam ripper. In the first stages, you will use it quite often, ripping a machine seam with it.

Tape measure. To ensure that the finished product is sewn neatly, you should pay special attention to taking measurements.

Chalk or soap. To cut out details on fabric, use either special tailor's chalk or the remains of ordinary laundry soap.

Pins. Before the parts of the product are sewn together on a machine, they must be basted together using pins or running stitches.

When everything you need is laid out in front of you at your workplace, I suggest moving on to the rules for operating a sewing machine.

Working with a sewing machine

Sewing lessons on a sewing machine for beginners should begin with the selection of needles and threads for sewing. The thinner the fabric you use in your work, the smaller the sewing needle number should be. And vice versa: for dense fabrics, a thicker needle is needed. The situation is also the same with sewing threads. If you do not pay attention to the needle or thread number, the process of working on a sewing machine may not bring the desired results. An incorrectly selected needle or thread thickness can lead to thread breakage, uneven stitching, or even breakdown of the machine. Therefore, be careful.

If you are just starting out with a sewing machine, I highly recommend practicing your stitch alignment. Try stitching straight stitches on scraps of fabric. When you press the pedal lightly, the speed of the machine will be slightly lower and it will be easier for you to control the process and evenness of the stitch.

Working with a sewing machine requires utmost attention and compliance with safety rules, as with any equipment. Below I provide video sewing lessons for beginners that will help you understand the process of working with the machine.

If at first you are afraid to start sewing clothes even using ready-made patterns from magazines, then try your hand at sewing toys for children and clothes for them. In the process of working on a toy, you will master the basic techniques of working with a sewing machine, learn how to control the evenness of the stitching, and making clothes for dolls will be the first step to sewing clothes for yourself and your children.

Perhaps sewing will become your favorite hobby!

Hello, dear readers of the blog “Shaw with me”. I am glad to welcome you to the pages of this blog! And since you are here, you probably wondered how learn to sew and cut clothes from scratch.

I will try to help you with this. After all, it’s very cool and pleasant to sew for yourself and your loved ones.

Firstly, it is economically profitable (you can get an item several times cheaper than you would have bought it).

Secondly, you will make yourself completely exclusive. And you must agree - it’s very nice!

And thirdly, few people have time to go to special courses, and sewing according to someone’s instructions is very convenient. I personally have been doing this for ten years now.

I really hope that these sewing lessons will be able to revive at least one of the above points for you).


To get started, you will need the following:

  • paper scissors
  • fabric scissors
  • graph paper
  • tracing paper
  • remnant
  • tailor's ruler scale 1:4
  • right angle square
  • tailor's pins
  • pattern
  • tape measure
  • thread No. 40

Also during the sewing process you will need:

  1. ironing iron (thin fabric) for ironing;
  2. ironing pad;
  3. press for processing slices (reducing slice thickness).

This is just a list of necessary things, and perhaps it scared you a little. I’ll explain now: many of these things can simply be replaced at the initial stage. For example, instead of an ironing pad, you simply roll up a towel (it’s convenient to iron blouse sleeves, shirt sleeves, or side seams on skirts).

A tailor's ruler is sold in any stationery store and is needed in order to draw a drawing in a size reduced by 4 times. You will understand everything in practice.

A pattern is a slightly curved ruler, needed to make some flexible lines when constructing a drawing. They come in different sizes and shapes.

With other concepts, I think there will be no questions.

If you do not plan to take a sewing course, sew on your own at home you need to start with the simplest.

And here you must choose which category you belong to. If you want to sew from scratch, but have never held a needle in your hands, then you will need to go through the basics. And if you have had at least some experience, then it will be a little easier for you).

And then we will try to start with something relatively simple. Of course, it is advisable that you remember at least something from mathematics at school or drawing, since we will have to do a little calculation and drawing, otherwise there is no other way in our business, except perhaps just tracing patterns of your size. I did this myself for many years.

You can find patterns in magazines Burda, Ottobre, etc. It will be easier, maybe. But I must admit that this will greatly limit your possibilities.

It's better to learn how to do it yourself. Moreover, it is not as difficult as it might seem at first glance.


And we will start with a straight classic skirt - the most ordinary skirt, on the basis of which in the future we will learn how to sew all other models of skirts. And oh, what a variety of them!! My eyes are wide open!! And after the skirts there will be shirts, dresses, trousers and jackets, and a lot of other things!

And I also want to tell you one very important thing: don’t be afraid of anything! Don't be afraid to ruin the fabric, don't be afraid to experiment. This applies to absolutely everything - the choice of fabric, the choice of an unusual model. The worst thing that can happen is that you will simply end up wasting the price of the damaged fabric. But the invaluable experience and skills that you will gain are worth a lot of money. Therefore, take risks! I always do this. And, as a rule, I have success. I wish the same for you!!!

First, you are faced with the task of determining your size and choosing fabric.

Learning to sew and cut from scratch is easier than you think. The most important thing is not to be afraid and believe in yourself. If you sew yourself, then at low cost you will get a lot of advantages, the main one of which is that your dress and your skirt will be exclusive.

What problems does a woman face when the question arises: what to wear?

What if someone else appears in the same dress?

Imagine you are going out for the evening, you are going to show off. You have a lot of hopes for this evening.

You prepare in advance. You go shopping, you can’t find what you need for a long time. But finally you find a dress that really suits you. It's really beautiful! It fits perfectly, it's just your size. You look amazing in it! It is more expensive than you would like, but you can no longer part with it, you buy it.

The long-awaited day is coming. You get ready in the morning. Finally, you stand in front of the mirror. Dress, hairstyle, makeup, shoes, handbag - everything is perfect! You are irresistible! This will definitely be your day!

You are going up the stairs. Now you will make a splash! You enter the hall or living room... And, oh God, your rival is wearing the same dress! Or not even a rival, but simply a woman twenty years older than you, or the most homely woman of all. Horror! Confusion! The desire to escape! But you have already been noticed. You can no longer retreat. You have to appear in front of everyone. You want to fall through the ground! You feel curious, sympathetic, and at times malicious glances. You force a smile, and it doesn’t work out well for you. What thoughts are running through your head and what emotions are you experiencing during that hour or two that you spend in this confined space until you manage to escape unnoticed?

And how does your companion feel, for whose sake, perhaps, everything was done?!

And now you are finally on the street. You're happy about it. Dark and quiet. Somewhere behind, as if in a nightmare, light, music and animated voices remained. And your hopes...

If we are not talking about an evening dress, but, say, a summer dress, sundress or skirt, then the situation is not so dramatic. But, if someone around you has the same thing, you are unlikely to wear it, and this is always associated with frustration and a waste of money.

Don't underestimate the likelihood of buying identical items. This can easily happen in a small town or a big city. And it happens often. Look in shops and markets in different areas of the city. Despite the apparent diversity, the same thing is sold there.

So we learn to sew and cut from scratch.

In the same dress for every holiday?

You bought a gorgeous dress. You wanted to shine and you did! You wanted to be remembered and you were remembered! But the holiday passed. After some time there will be another holiday. Will you wear the same dress? If you go to another company, then there is no problem. What if it’s the same one? Or will you buy the next dress? But it's not cheap. Otherwise, something so beautiful and so expensive will gather dust in the closet without use?

Or maybe it’s better to wear something modest so that next time no one notices that you’re wearing the same thing?

There are three days left before the holiday, but you have nothing to wear?

Will you be running around the shops hoping to buy something? You may not have time. Or you will have to buy at least something, although you don’t really like it. And the holiday is not a pleasure. And then it will lie around, and this is money wasted.

You definitely won’t have time to sew it in a studio. Yes, it's expensive.

Is it difficult to choose the right size?

The width fits, but is too long. Or too short. The length is just right, the width is narrow or wide. Just right in the chest, narrow in the hips. Just right in the hips, wide in the chest. And such a beautiful dress! And so you leave the store without a dress. Or you still buy it, try to sew it in or somehow arrange it. It turns out badly, and you give up this idea. It then lies around for a long time and spoils your mood.

Can't find what you want in the store?

You spend a long time shopping and can’t find what you want. You try on different dresses. Color fits, size doesn't fit. The size is right, the color is not right. The color suits, the style doesn't suit. The color and style are suitable, but it just doesn’t match or is a little short. Finally, you find a dress that suits everyone, but obviously doesn't fit the price. Or you’ve been shopping for three weeks now, but haven’t found anything suitable.

Expensive?

Prices are rising. Evening dresses are expensive because they are evening dresses. Fashionable dresses are expensive because they are fashionable dresses. Statement dresses are expensive because they are statement dresses. This is understandable. Everyone makes money.

I'm tired of everything old. I want something new. I want variety. I want to look beautiful.

Do you think that if you sew yourself, it will be difficult, and you will have to spend a lot of time and effort on sewing?

You can, of course, set yourself a very difficult task, a very complex design with many details, very painstaking work. You can waste a lot of time on this, redo it many times, get exhausted at the end and quit without finishing it. Or you still finish it and in the end discover that it didn’t turn out what you wanted.

Don't know how to make a pattern?

The pattern is very difficult to construct. This is a whole science. What about without a pattern?

Have you never tried it yourself and think it’s for professionals?

To do something well, you need to study for a long time. You need to graduate from school. Get a diploma. Then you need experience. And since you have chosen another area, this is no longer for you. And in general it’s too late, I should have studied at school.

It's never too late to learn.

Lacking creativity?

If you are not an artist, designer or painter, if you do not write poetry at night, perhaps there is not enough creativity in your life. At work you do what is required of you, you do what you are told. You do what is necessary at home. You go to the store and buy what is there. Everything you have was made by someone. This is fine. But it's boring. Have you thought about this?

Solution : Learning to sew and cut from scratch
