Requirements for home clothes

Unlike the gowns worn by doctors and nurses, when choosing home clothes, people are usually guided by the following wishes:

• I would like convenience and practicality.

Such a robe is necessary to emphasize femininity, not to leave a man indifferent. There are many styles. Lace can be well combined with various materials.
The long version suits women of all ages well. If the medium length is used, this style emphasizes the advantages of the figure. The short style is more suitable for romantic meetings.

Kimono "Yukata"

This is a kimono made of cotton fabric. Such clothing is often used at home or when out of town. It is usually made of fabric with a discreet gray or blue pattern on a white background.

In this garment, the cut is the same for women or men. Usually, the style is the same for people of different sizes. It's just that those who find it more comfortable wrap it tighter.

To make this type of clothing, take a piece of natural fabric 150 cm wide and 300 cm long. Before you start sewing, you need to wash the cotton fabric. This is important because it shrinks after washing. By doing this in advance, you can be sure that the dimensions will be observed exactly. The master class on sewing a kimono is described below.

The cutting is done in accordance with the provided drawing.

The fabric should be spread on the floor and the necessary lines should be made with chalk or a piece of soap. The length of the belt should be three times the length of the waist circumference.

Sewing is done as follows:

1. First, the sleeves are processed. These parts are folded in half. The sleeves are short. The fold of the fabric is located at the top. Since the opening is wide, the sleeve is sewn from the bottom and from the outside. An opening of 15 cm is left for the arms. The lower hemmed part of the sleeve is used as a small pocket for small items.
2. The wrap is attached to the front, starting from the bottom edge. It should be taken into account that the top edge is beveled.
3. The neckline is being trimmed.
4. Now all that remains is to fold the pieces in the waist section in half and place them with the front side facing inward.

The finished kimono must be carefully folded and ironed. The pattern for creating a men's robe of this type is made in a completely similar way.

Children's robe with hood

Before you start sewing a children's robe yourself, you need to choose the most suitable style. There is a large selection of options - some of them are simple, while others are very complex.

For work, you can buy terry cloth or use an existing terry towel of a size sufficient for the child. In order to determine the amount of material needed. You must first prepare a pattern, and then make calculations based on it.

If these clothes are made for a 9 year old girl, then to create a pattern you will need to take the following measurements:

1. Chest circumference.
2. The hip circumference should be measured in accordance with the buttock line.
3. The length should be measured from the point where the shoulder line crosses the neck.
4. To get a measurement for arm length, you need to spread your arms horizontally to the sides and measure the distance between your hands yourself.

In the simplest version, you can use a terry towel of sufficient size for sewing. Such a robe will suit not only girls, but also boys. In the middle, make a slit for the head and fold it in half lengthwise. The child stands, holding his arms horizontally. The fabric is cut and sewn to fit his figure. In this case, the hood is made separately and sewn to the hole made.
How to sew a robe without sleeves and side seams

To sew such a model of clothing, you need a corresponding pattern. In this case, it is made from one piece of fabric. In this case, the seams in the upper part are made between the back and the shelf.

When creating a pattern, the craftsman must take into account that in this case a rectangle is taken as a basis.

The width is determined by the hip circumference, which should be increased by approximately 12 cm. The length is selected based on the taste of the tailor. The depth of the neck and the height of the barrel are determined in accordance with the measurements taken.

Sewing is performed as follows:

1. The sleeve opening is sewn using a zigzag stitch.
2. To connect the front and back, you need to sew the top seam.
3. The edges of the fabric on the neck and sleeves need to be processed.
4. The neckline needs to be decorated using finishing material.
5. The bottom needs to be folded over and stitched.

DIY Zippered Robe

Before sewing, you need to choose the style that you like. In this case, you need to determine the following:

1. The size of the robe.
2. The presence of a hood.
3. Will there be sleeves and what length should they be?
4. It is necessary to determine whether a robe is supposed to have a collar.

For summer, a fitted style without sleeves or with very short ones is suitable. In colder times of the year, it is better to use clothes with full-length or three-quarter sleeves. Usually, patch pockets are used for such a robe.

Since we are talking about tight-fitting clothes with a zipper, it is possible to base such a pattern on a T-shirt. You need to choose one that does not restrict movement.

To construct a pattern, do the following:

1. The T-shirt needs to be ironed and folded in half.
2. The T-shirt should be placed on paper, with the edges pinned. Then the pattern is drawn. In this case, it will be necessary to make an allowance so that the clothes fit loosely.
3. To cut out the sleeves, you can simply extend the T-shirt sleeves to the desired length.
4. You need to choose what the facing and collar will be like.
5. If you plan to have a hood, then its pattern can be made from an old item that has one.

After the pattern is prepared, sewing is done on its basis. In the finished robe, a woman will look spectacular, even if she is wearing curlers.

Bathrobe

In order to adjust the pattern for a women's robe with buttons, you need to specify your measurements and make the necessary adjustments to the diagram.

The width of the scent should be from 12 to 15 cm.

It is necessary to use a fabric that absorbs water well (for example, waffle).

When cutting on terry cloth, it is not possible to use chalk for marking. In this case, it will be convenient to attach paper drawings to the fabric with pins.

8. Try it on and determine the full length of the sleeves. After that, you need to sew them on.

At the end, make loops through which the belt will be threaded. After this, the terry robe is finished. It is warm and cozy even if it is freezing outside.

3. The resulting lines are marked with chalk.
4. Now all that remains is to cut out the neckline.

When sewing, all edges will need to be folded and sewn. At the waist level, ties must be installed.
This robe pattern will be suitable for soft fabric of medium thickness.

Choice of fabric

You can use different types of fabric for the robe:

• Synthetics look beautiful, are durable and have a longer service life, but they are prone to static and do not allow air to pass through well.
• York fabrics are sometimes used.
• Bamboo fiber works well, but it is an expensive material.
• Cotton is also often used to make robes.
• Silk robes are beautiful and practical, but not suitable for everyday wear.

Terry cloth robes are very popular.

Calculation of the amount of fabric

The amount of fabric required to sew a robe depends on the chosen style. Once the pattern is prepared, you can determine what length of fabric will be needed for sewing.

After this, the main part of the robe can be considered ready.

Sleeve and detail design

The edging for the outer edge of the sleeves can be made using piping.

For decoration, you can sew a pocket onto the robe.

To make a belt, you need to sew it, cut off the corners, and turn it inside out. The open seam must be made to the edge. At the same time, you need to fold the edge by one centimeter on both sides.

How to sew without creating a pattern

To make a house robe with your own hands, a simple pattern looks like this.
To do this, it is enough to take a rectangular piece of suitable fabric. In this case, the corners must be cut to make them rounded.

The dimensions should be as follows. The length of this one-piece piece should exceed the woman's height. The width should be such that the fabric can be wrapped around the body with a wrap.

For quick sewing, you need to make cuts for the arms. To determine their location, you need to:

1. Draw a vertical line in the center of the piece of fabric with chalk or a bar of soap.
2. It is used to measure the height from the bottom of the robe to the bottom of the armpits.
3. At this point, make a horizontal line; it should correspond to the width of the shoulders.
4. From the last segment, put two vertical segments upwards. In this place in the fabric there will be slits for the arms.

After the arm holes are made, the part of the fabric that is above the shoulders is folded and falls freely on the back. Now, in order to wear the robe, you will need to make a belt. Before sewing the robe, you can see how this style looks, having made it for a doll.

A dressing gown is a cozy home garment that emphasizes the style of the hostess. Various styles can be used to make it. Usually, making such clothing is not difficult even for a novice craftswoman.
