How to sew maternity shorts on your own
Of course, you can sew clothes for a pregnant woman herself. No need to possess any special sewing skills. In ordinary shorts, on the belt, a durable inextensible fabric is sewn in, it hurts, pressing on the stomach. For sewing, you will need those shorts that fit perfectly on the hips, but do not stretch and put pressure on the stomach. It is advisable to take with a wide clothesline. You have to insert new material, preferably with a slight stretch. A wide belt with a slight stretch will distribute the pressure of the new gum evenly, and it will be more comfortable to "sit" on the carrier.
To do this, carefully trim with scissors the location of the elastic band, which is installed in the shorts. Then pull out the old tension tape and insert a new, more stretchable one.
If necessary, you can trim the front to the desired protrusion of the abdomen and then only pass a wide elastic band. Properly made clothes will sit perfectly, not fall off and do not put pressure on the belly.
How to sew shorts with an insert
Although shorts are now comfortable, they also want to look beautiful in them. For this, you also need to work hard. Take some unnecessary beautiful lace material. Carefully trim the most beautiful and voluminous lace figures, preferably matching the color of the shorts. It is important to take threads identical to the lace texture, so that it is not visible that the inserts were sewn on their own. Attach two symmetrical shapes to the back or front. Sew them exactly along the edge so that the figures do not come off and do not have to do everything again!
Beautifully executed manipulations will create a wonderful item of clothing suitable even for trips to the "people".The most remarkable feature of the self-production of such shorts is the fact that you can insert a variety of elements with a wide variety of patterns and shapes. It all depends on your imagination!
How to sew shorts with a corsage
An excellent complement to clothes will be a corsage for a pregnant woman. But it will be a little difficult to make it, but do not be afraid to idle time! The corsage is a beautiful dress that covers the chest, back and sides, but does not tighten the usual figure of a woman. But when carrying a child, the figure no longer becomes ordinary. The stomach will not allow the normal wearing of this type of clothing, so you will have to do sewing again.
For sewing a corsage, the following are measured: lower waist, chest waist, height from neck to waist.According to the measurements, the following are cut out of unnecessary material: two cuts on the sides, the front part with a protrusion on the chest, a piece of cloth for the back. Exactly stitching parts of the corsage (do not forget about identical threads!), Making small seams, gradually switch to other parts (it is better to stitch on the eversion of clothes!). With a job well done, you get the perfect complement to maternity shorts. And most importantly, the clothes do not cause discomfort. We wish you success!
