How to sew a butterfly around the neck: a sequence of works
It often happens that the family is invited to an official event, but the husband does not have a tie or he does not like wearing it. In this case, it can be replaced by a butterfly. And you can do it yourself. Before you sew a butterfly around your neck, you should always choose the right fabric and various accessories: lining, hooks for fastening.
Since sewing a butterfly around your neck is not very difficult, you will spend only half a day. During the selection of fabric, preference should be given to dense materials. Otherwise, the butterfly will not keep its shape. Without a lining, you should not even begin work. In this case, non-woven fabric is suitable. It can be black or white, depending on the chosen basic fabric.
Before you sew a butterfly around your neck, make a pattern on the main and lining fabric. Now the cut out pattern is applied to the back side of the main material and we trace the contour with the help of chalk. During the cutting of the parts of the product, a small indentation must be observed, which will then need to be swept. The allowance is usually up to 0.5 cm. Naturally, it is necessary to make two parts of the future butterfly, which will be sewn.
It should be noted that the allowance should be cut as close to the seam as possible so that it does not spoil the shape of the product. When turning, you should also pay attention to the corners. Before final sewing, pull out the notch. In order for the angles to be even, sharp and neat, you should "push" them with a brush from the inside. During this process, you should be as careful as possible so as not to break the seam.
Keep in mind that during ironing, you need to consider how much of the product you need. For example, if it should be flat, then squeeze the iron very tightly. In order to fix the butterfly on the neck, you can use not only a strip of fabric, but also special plastic sliders.
That's the whole instruction on how to sew a male butterfly yourself. If you did everything neatly, then you should get a very high quality and beautiful tie.
