Sewing 1

Sewing is an art. You need to be good at mathematics and have a good sense of measurement too before you can be called a seamstress or a tailor. I have seen some people who are so talented but they don’t have a sense of measurement at all. They don’t know basic mathematical calculations. For them, sewing is not easy. But on the other hand, some people are not that great at arithmetic but they are gifted in sewing because of their accurate way of measurement. Key skills to take into account while sewing clothes are precision, patience, and creativity. Think twice before taking any measurement. You can find videos that will teach you how to measure the shoulders, the full arms, the waist, the hips, the torso, the legs, the chest.

Have you ever wondered how some clothes or caps are sewed? First, you need to be good in mathematics before talking about measurement.

I’m going to talk about how to make this kind of cap and a bow tie

For Cap

First measure the material you're using, it has to be 52 inches or thereabout and also measure the person's head.

Secondly, you will cut the pieces into three places. It does not matter the size of the person's head but cut it into three equal parts in a slanted way.

Thirdly, join the three pieces together, you will have to sew another material to the cap material to cover up the sewing done. So sew the cap material and the other material from edge to edge.

Fourthly, the measure of the person’s head. Mark the measurement of the head on the cap material, fold It into two to stitch the place marked, and do the same to the other material join at the edge

Lastly, For the top of the cap. The material from the cap material and other material cut it like a circular shape to the size that will cover the cap at the top. Then sew it at the top of the cap with the one you have cut circularly, You have your African party cap.

Bow Tie

Measure the material you’re using to 5 inches in two places

Put the materials together then sew it at the edges round leaving half inches around before sewing. After you have finished sewing it around, use scissors to cut the material in the middle, at one part of the materials. That place you have cut, use it to bring the material Out on the other side that won't show where it is sewing. Then at the middle of the material pick a small piece of the material you are using to sew wrap with the elastic of half inches in width that you are using. After you have your bow tie
