Children's patterns are very simple to build. There is no need to do a lot of measurements and various calculations. You can even say that when sewing children's clothing, simplified versions of patterns are used, which only the basic seams resemble the process of making clothes for adults.

Building a bodice template

In order to start working on the product, the baby should be measured. Here, only the measurement of the breast is sufficient. You need to know this volume, do not rely on standards, because children are all different and have their own peculiarities of body structure.

How to build a pattern? Dress for a girl (1 year) does not require special calculations. The bunches of the bodice are cut from rectangular pieces, the width of which is equal to half the circumference of the measurement of the breast + 5 cm. Usually for such babies, a dress is made with a skirt from the breast line. This model does not constrain movements and does not press on the tummy. Therefore, the height of the rectangle, and therefore of the bodice, should not be more than 15 cm. The detail is folded in half and the neck is drawn at the center of the fold. Next, go to the shoulder seams, which are somewhat mowed to the cuts, about 1 cm. After making small grooves for the armhole armhole. There will be enough 8-9 cm of the armhole's height. The back part is constructed similarly, only with a cut in the middle of the zippered fastener.

As you can see, the children's patterns are very simple to make. So do not be afraid that the product will not work.

Assembling the bodice

What to do next, when is the pattern ready? The dress for the girl (1 year) is stitched in parts, beginning with the bodice. First of all, the shoulder seams are closed, after the side seams and at this stage the work could be postponed, having subsequently formed the necks of the throat and the armhole with the oblique bake. But to make a truly comfortable product that will not only not press, but also possible stitches for the delicate skin of the child, the seams will not irritate, you should duplicate the bodice. What does it mean? You just need to cut out three more details for the bodice from the same fabric, assemble them in the same sequence, and then put the throat section and the armhole into the inside of the part, after closing. To come out neatly, first the parts should be pressed inside out, swept, and then along the very edge of the pave a neat line.

Build and assemble a skirt

For a skirt, take a strip of fabric equal to the length of two or three measures taken along the lower cut of the finished bodice, depending on the type of assembly. By the way, it can be bow folds, or ordinary folds, or simply a strip of fabric gathered on a string. The trimmed wrinkles are slightly pressed and ground to the lower cut of the bodice.

To make a neat seam, first connect the skirt to the front (upper part) of the bodice. The inner part should be treated with an overlock and on the front side, smoothing the product, laying a line along the line of alignment at the very base of the skirt. After that, you just have to sew a secret zipper, and the dress for the child is ready.

Material selection

Whatever the pattern, a dress for a girl (1 year) should be made of soft natural pliable or knitted fabrics. Here it should be borne in mind that the fabric should not contain wool and lurex, as they are pricked. But synthetic materials are better to use for the front side of the bodice and skirt.

Sewing children's dresses for the summer can be made from cambric, flax, staple, gauze, knit interlock or cooler. For the winter version, velor on a cotton base, as well as a felt with fleece, is more suitable.

Here it should be noted that when using hard fabrics, a soft lining should be made. For example, if the skirt is of tulle, then you should make a lower skirt out of cotton cloth.

Dress the crochet

Original miniature lace knitted things look original. Dress crochet girl (1 year) will look just charming. A lush skirt, bound in the shape of a pattern of a sun or a sun? And a small bodice with ties from satin ribbons is a great option. A suitable pattern for such a product is the so-called pineapple. Chic dress will look like a small flower with a bodice of simple stitches with a crochet.

The above pattern can be made from paper and used as a template when dressing out the details of the dress.

Selection of yarn

Of course, it's best for children's clothes to fit threads with natural fibers. However, today there is a large selection of synthetic hypoallergenic yarn, which can easily be used to make a summer dress for children. For example, most of the children's yarn contains acrylic. With such a thread, it is worth considering that the fabric will stretch in the process of wearing socks, and therefore knitting should be tight. The product of cotton yarn will look good after a lot of washing only if you choose so-called mercerized cotton. This yarn is pleasant to the touch and has a beautiful shine.
