Dress without a pattern - step-by-step instructions on how to sew a dress with your own hands. Tips for beginners with simple patterns + photo reviews

Flowy fabric dress

Prepare the fabric. Its size depends on your height and build. Therefore, it is necessary to measure the desired height. It is measured from the armpit to wherever you want (above, below the knee). And the width should be such that you can wrap the fabric 2 times.

The fabric for this product is selected to be light, flowing, it is better that it stretches. You should not use cotton fabric.

Thus, it turns out to quickly sew a dress without a pattern. Finish all edges of the product and, if desired, overlay with a seam. Thin straps are sewn onto 2 corners.

The whole dress is ready, all you have to do is wrap it around it and you can go to the beach.

First, the first strap is put on, then the dress is wrapped around the body and the second strap is put on. If desired, you can add a beautiful belt.

Sweatshirt pattern

The “Metamorphoses” sweatshirt fits perfectly with the trousers I mentioned above. The pattern is given for sizes from 36 to 60, for 4 heights.

Sewing such a sweatshirt will not seem difficult for a beginner if you follow the instructions, which, moreover, will help you find out the fabric consumption.

Choose fabrics such as thick knitted fabrics, fleece, polartek.

Knitted dress

Knitwear is perfect for this option. In order to make the top blank, you can use a comfortable loose T-shirt. The skirt is taken to the bottom.

Thus, carefully place the T-shirt on the folded fabric and combine it with the skirt. Make notes. Don't forget to leave 0.5-1 cm for allowances.

Now you need to cut and sweep the blank, sew all the seams (shoulders and sides) and a simple dress without a pattern is ready.

Fabrics for hoodie dress

For beginners, sewing a dress with your own hands will be simple from materials that do not require special skills. The canvas should not crumble, stretch, or deform. Experienced seamstresses can choose more demanding options.

What fabrics can you sew from easily and simply, without patterns:

• calico;
• linen;
• cotton;
• knitwear;
• atlas;
• crepe;
• satin;
• Jersey;
• openwork;
• viscose.
• Niagara.

For a hoodie, dense, breathable fabrics that have almost no stretch are more suitable. Fabrics that drape well are not needed here either. It is better for the dress to hold a baggy shape than to fit your figure.

It is important to pay attention to the transparency of the fabric. It should not be see-through, otherwise you will have to add a lining, which is undesirable for summer dresses.

It is acceptable if the hoodie dress wrinkles a little when worn. The piece of fabric is large, so there may be small creases. It is better to choose natural fabrics for the summer that allow air and moisture to pass through well than to wear a synthetic bag without a single crease or unironed area.

Canopy dress

This is the so-called canopy dress. Stretch fabric works great.

The dimensions of the canvas are approximately 130-150 cm.

Fold the fabric four times. Measure your hips. Measure from the side where the fold is 1⁄4 of the measurement and add a couple of centimeters for a loose fit.

Then you need to mark the vertical to a height of 0.5 m. Open the folded fabric and stitch on the resulting segment. The corners should be drawn with a semicircular line.

Excess fabric should be cut off. Mark the neckline 5*30 centimeters. Finish all seams. The dress without a pattern is ready. For summer clothes, light, breathable fabrics are suitable.

Tunic

This option can be used as a tunic or as a separate item. First you need to decide on the choice of fabric. Fold it in half (right side to right side) and iron it.

You need to cut out 2 such parts. Sew all seams and finish the neckline. Sew an elastic band or thread a beautiful ribbon onto the waist line.

Pareo pattern

People usually start sewing with an apron; this is exactly how it was in home economics classes at school. We'll start with the transformable pareo.

The pareo pattern is very simple, it consists of two pieces of panels and a belt. The only difficulty that may await you is the correct choice of fabric. Be careful, choose light, thin, translucent fabrics, natural or mixed in composition.

Pay special attention to ease of processing; it is better if the fabric does not slip and crumble. This will make it easier for you to deal with it. The instructions will help you with sewing technology.

Fee for plus size ladies

This dress is for plus size people without a pattern; it will help hide all imperfections and highlight beautiful shapes.

For the upper part of the product you will need a piece of 1.5 m, leave 10 cm for the length from the shoulders to the waist. Fold the fabric in half and cut it.

Leave 30 centimeters for the width of the sleeves. Set aside 50 cm from the bottom contour of the product.

The distance between the two sleeves is 1⁄2 the size of the hips + 10-13 centimeters. Finish the sleeves with double stitching and make a drawstring. Make a beautiful satin ribbon.

Finish processing the skirt. Sew and finish all seams. Create beautiful and even folds on the waist line.

Sew two parts of the dress. Sew the hem with a double seam. Overlog all seams.

The dress with a chic floor-length skirt is ready.

How to take measurements correctly?

The measurements are easy to take, the main thing is to get used to it. How to do this, our expert Yuri Podayko (Giorgio Gio) tells us:

First measurements: from the extreme point of one shoulder to the extreme point of the other shoulder. Add 13 cm to them on each side. Then a rectangle is cut out, which will be the back of the dress.

Second measurements: sleeves. Measure your arm at its widest point, just above the biceps. Usually this is a standard size of 25 cm. Another 15 cm is added to it.

Third measurements: front. It is cut out in separate pieces. 33 cm is the distance from the center to the shoulder, plus 14 cm at the waist line is added for overlap. This measurement is taken from the shoulder. With a standard height of 170 cm, the result is 42 cm.

Total: 2 m 40 cm - these are two lengths of the dress; 3 cm are added to the side and shoulder seams; 10-15 cm on the lower part; For the seam at the bottom of the sleeve, leave 5 cm, and for stitching and sewing in - 3 cm each.

Shirt dress

Prepare a shirt (preferably 2-3 sizes larger). A master class on how to make a dress without a pattern will help you update and diversify your wardrobe.

Let's consider as many as 2 options for making simple dresses from an ordinary men's shirt. These options are distinguished by their ease of manufacture.

Doesn't require much effort. No patterns are used. All you need is patience and maximum imagination.

Choose products made from cotton or linen fabric.

In order not to do unnecessary manipulations, it is better to purchase shirts made of dense and non-transparent material.

Dresses can be decorated to suit every taste. For example, sew on beads or rhinestones, or maybe you decide to hang a beautiful new brooch; embroidery elements will also look beautiful.

What fabric to choose for the dress?

Suitable fabrics for the dress: wool, twill, satin weaves, thick viscose, knitwear.

Wool is used to sew warm products, and viscose will be needed when creating dresses for warm weather.

The stores have a large assortment, so feel, touch, look at the composition and choose the fabric that you like best.

Buy fabrics at wholesale stores, because they cost half as much there as in stores.

If you want, you can safely experiment with different fabrics and purchase several at once, for example, thick and light. Make two dresses for different seasons or give the second one to a friend!

Decatting - washing and steaming the fabric before sewing - is important as the fabric can shrink by 20%. Therefore, wash it first so that the finished dress does not unexpectedly turn from a midi into a mini.

First option

• The most suitable fabric option is linen.
• Take waist measurements.
• The neckline of the dress will be V-shaped.
• Determine the highest point of the cutout, where the straps will be located.
• Now you need to find the lowest point. It will define your cleavage.
• If the shirt has a pocket, it should be cut off.

Where to begin:

From the top button on the shirt, measure down to the lowest point of the neckline. Approximately 19 centimeters. Decide on the waist width. To do this, you need to take 1⁄2 of your waist size + 2-3 centimeters. From the waist up, draw 18 centimeters. This is where the armhole will come from.

Measure 11-12 cm from the buttons. The straps will be located here. Connect all the marks together. It begins, an outline emerges. From all marked lines, retreat 1-2 cm to the seams.

Now you need to cut: along the waist line, along all marked lines. Now start processing the back. Draw a line 18 cm from the waist.

Cut along the line, leaving 1-2 cm for seam allowances. You should have 2 pieces for the top. Place them right side together and sew.

Make undercuts. This is done to ensure that the top fits your figure.

Draw a line at the level of the straps. Divide in half. Draw a line. You should get a triangle. The resulting line needs to be stitched. Now all the edges of the top need to be folded 2 times and stitched on a sewing machine.

Now you need to make the straps. They can be made from a sleeve. The width of the strap is approximately 2-3 cm. Fold the edges of the strip towards the center and bend it in half again. Run a line along the edge. Try on the top. And at the highest point of the top, mark the location of the straps and then sew.

All that remains is to sew on the skirt. To begin, unfasten all the buttons. Use a wide seam to sew the entire length. Using one thread, gather the fabric into folds. Distribute evenly over the entire length.

Attach the bottom to the top. First, connect everything using auxiliary pins. Sew two parts. There you go!

Top pattern

We practiced on the apron, now it’s time to sew something a little more complicated - a basic top. A very successful model. The pattern for it is simple. Given for Russian sizes from 36 to 60, for 4 heights.

You can sew such a top from cotton jersey, then it will be a T-shirt for every day, and if you sew it from silk, it will be a more elegant, even evening top.

Difficulty in sewing may arise when processing the neckline. But the instructions will help you here too.

But, and that’s not all, for those who want to show their creativity to the fullest, we have a Master Class on painting this very top.

Second option

A vertical striped shirt works well for this option.

From this option we sew a dress without a pattern.

• If there are grooves on the back, they should be cut out.
• Iron the shirt.
• Cut out the area of ​​fabric up to the sleeves.
• Remove the pocket, it will get in our way.
• Remove the sleeves for now, but they will still be needed.

Let's get started:

Fold one part of the shirt in half and draw a line 12 cm long. From this line, draw down 25 cm. Draw a straight line.

Draw a diagonal line from the armpit area to the bottom edge of the product.

Place a 7 cm mark for the armpit opening. Connect 2 dots together. Cut with seam allowances of 2-3 cm.

Now you should start processing the back. Place the 2 pieces right sides together and stitch where the line with the buttons is. Fold the piece in half. Find the mark for the armhole and at this point fold the first piece and draw a line to the second. Cut out.

Place the pieces right sides together and sew along the sides using a sewing machine and fold in all open edges. Now let's start making the straps. They are cut from the sleeve.

The straps are made according to the same principle as in option 1. Sew on front and back.

You can sew ruffles along the hem line. The dress turned out to be summery and very comfortable.
