Pajamas are a comfortable outfit for sleeping. You can sleep in it not only in the winter, when it’s cold outside and in the apartment, but also in the summer, if you choose the right material from which the pajamas will be sewn. Pajamas made of satin with lace, sewn yourself, will not only contribute to your comfort while sleeping, but also please the eye.
Selecting a model
Before you start sewing comfortable sleepwear, you need to choose the type of pajamas you want. The model of your future sleepwear depends on your body type and your preferences.
Advice!
If you are a beginner seamstress, we recommend choosing simple models.
DIY satin pajamas
Satin is a rather capricious material, however, pajamas made from it and complemented with lace will look luxurious. So let's get down to business and create this luxury with our own hands.
What you need for work
Before you start sewing nightwear, you will need to purchase fabric - satin fabric 1 meter long. You will also need an elastic band about 50 cm wide, about half a meter, the length of the elastic will depend entirely on the circumference of your waist. You can also purchase a lace ribbon approximately 5 cm wide; the length of the elastic will depend on the circumference of your waist.
On a note!
It is best to buy a lace ribbon that is at least one meter long, so that there is a remainder that may be useful.
Taking measurements
Before you start modeling and sewing, you must take measurements. If you sew for yourself, then you need to take your own measurements or ask someone for help. To model a pattern for women's pajamas, we need the following parameters - chest circumference, waist circumference, hip circumference.
Making a pattern for women's pajamas with satin shorts
Next, let's start creating the pattern..
On a note!
Ready-made patterns can be downloaded from the Internet or made yourself.
The shorts pattern will consist of four parts. The front half of the shorts is two parts and the back half of the shorts is also two parts. Next, we move on to constructing the top pattern. The top will consist of two parts. The front panel with a fold is one piece and the rear panel with a fold is one piece. When modeling a pattern, do not forget to leave an allowance of one centimeter on the sides of each part, and it is better to leave 3 cm at the bottom of the product. For the belt on top of the product, it is also worth adding 5 cm so that the fabric can be folded and an elastic band inserted.
We cut fabric
After we have taken our measurements and modeled the pattern, we need to start cutting the fabric. To do this, we will need to cut out the patterns that we built on paper and lay them out on fabric. It is necessary to make markings on the fabric according to the patterns, and then cut out the parts.
Assembly of parts
To sew all the details of the shorts we need to start by stitching them.
- Sew the front and back halves of the shorts on the sides.
- Next, sew the inside seams to create half of the shorts.
- We carry out the same manipulation with the other two parts of half of the shorts.
- After this, each stitched part must be connected along the central seam.
- After this, the finished product is turned inside out and the bottom and waistband are folded.
- Insert the finished elastic band into the folded belt.
Further, Let's move on to sewing the top. To do this, you need to take the front part and sew darts on it. Then we connect the front and back of the T-shirt and stitch it. Sew on the straps. You can sew the straps yourself or buy ready-made straps. The length of the ribbons is adjustable on site. Then you need to grind all the products together with the straps. After this, you need to process the bottom of the T-shirt.
The last stage is decoration
Sew on the lace. By the way, it can also be sewn along the upper edge of the top.
An ideal complement to satin lace pajamas would be a robe made from the same material.
