How to carve a skirt half-sun: the diagram and the instruction
The cut at this product is not too complicated, for the construction of a pattern you need only two values:
length of the skirt (Du) - you define it yourself depending on the desired result;
hem waist (st) - you need to take measurements from the waist and divide by two.
The name of this garment wasbecause it looks like a half-circle, cut into two segments. The pattern of the quarter circle (the basis for the product) is constructed as follows:
for starters, the main radius of the circle is postponed,which is the length (Du) + R, where the value of R is calculated by the formula: (St + 1) * 0.63. The unit in the calculation means an increase in free fit, this value may vary depending on the type of tissue;
the value of St in this formula may increase if you make a skirt with pleats or with a belt on the elastic band. If this is not taken into account, then the finished product with the elastic band will not be available;
Next draw another line of length Du + R, soso that they form a right angle with the vertex O. Connect their ends with an arc - this will be the bottom line. Mark on this line the value of R and draw another smaller arc - this will be the waist line.
The buildings are very similar to the skirt-sun, so a person who has ever sewn it, will not face difficulties in making this model.

The pattern is so simple that its construction can be carried out immediately on the material. But in order to avoid mistakes and unnecessary consumption of material for beginners, it is better to first make a paper pattern.
If the width of the material allows, and the plannedthe length of the product is not too large, cutting can be done on the wrong side of the folded fabric. In the case when the width of the cut is not enough, it is laid face down, and on the purl is carried out the cutting of the two parts side by side in a mirror image.
When cutting on a material, the cutter must rememberallowances at the waist, on the side seam (if the cut involves more than one detail) and allowances for the processing of the bottom (from 0.7 to 2 centimeters). Each wedge in the process of sewing is delayed, so that the finished product has a flat bottom.
How to lengthen the skirt of a sun
To update a wardrobe or make a short skirt that is less than challenging so that you can go to work in it, there are several ways:
The most common and simple is lengthening bya lace count that is sewn to the bottom. This does not require specific skills, it is sufficient to choose a lace that is in harmony with the material. The same lace can decorate the belt and pockets to make the product look finished.
You can sew a strip of the same fabric to the hem, fromwhich the product is sewn. But this method is not suitable if the skirt is bought, and not stitched at home, since it is difficult to find the same fabric. In this case, sew a cut of contrasting color or pattern, combined with the material of the wardrobe.
