Pleating

She is again in the arsenal of fashionistas! Light, springy folds adorn not only clothes, but also accessories.

Give a fan!
A few movements - and the scarf becomes a spectacular frill.

You will need:
bluzon, crepe chiffon size. OK. 40 x 60 cm. Threads for sewing.
How to do:
Before the blueson, cut along the midline from the bottom edge without reaching 5 mm to the cutout bar. Sew over the sections with an overlock stitch. Measure the length of the resulting edges. Cut a flap of fabric 40 cm wide according to the length of the cut.
Iron the folds (see the step-by-step instructions below). Paste long sections of the part with folds face to face on the sections of the sections at the front and stitch (seam width 5 mm) as close as possible to the upper end of the section.
At the upper end of the cut section, folds tightly and sew from the inside to the seam for attaching the cut-out strap. Approximately 5 mm below, manually fold the folds with hidden stitches again.
Playfully!
A pleated scarf is a striking addition to any ensemble.

You will need:
Chiffon crepe (preferably with synthetic fibers) OK. 180 x 50 cm. Threads for sewing.
Step 1
Process a flap of fabric around with a twisted hem (on the overlock). Scarf divided into 5 parts. From one end, measure 40 cm, then 15 cm, then 70 cm, and then again 15 cm. Mark with large basting stitches. The remaining part is 40 cm. At the ends 40 cm long and on the middle part 70 cm long, iron the folds (see instructions below).



Step 2
Fold a flap of fabric "accordion, the depth of the folds - 2 cm.



Step 3
Secure the folds with pins at some distance from each other.



Step 4
Iron the folds with a steam iron on the front side. Stitch the fold of each fold to the edge. Stitching bends start and end not in one line. Parts of a scarf 15 cm long remain smooth.
Step 5
Unroll the fabric again. Thanks to barely visible lines, it will retain its shape even after washing.
