A wax coupon: 3 customizations

Wax is the big trend of summer. We see it everywhere and he gives us desires elsewhere. So we have prepared you 3 customizations to do with a 2,50m coupon and it will still have a small house. Go to your needles!

I customize a jeans jacket:

The jeans jacket is the multi-function jacket that we carry everywhere and all summer. We wanted to give him a little stroke of pep’s with a flat wax on the back.

SUPPLIES

 

THE EXPLANATIONS :

Measures

1- Start by measuring the location or you want to put your wax. Here we have chosen to make a square of 34x34cm + 1.5cm of sewing margin by placing us just below the seam of the back.

 

2- Cut a square of 35.5 x 35.5cm

3- Iron hem

Placement :

4 - pin the fabric on the back of the jacket.

5. For the top and so that the fabric follows the seam well, readjust your pins.

6 - and prick

I customize a white top:

We all have in our dressing room a white top that we no longer wear or which is too short or stained or holes and well here is the solution! We make a top to Basque in less than an hour.

SUPPLIES :

  • A white top
  • A coupon of wax
  • A sewing machine
  • Sewing equipment (a flat rule and a good pair of scissors)
  • A pencil to mark
  • Pins

Prepare the T-shirt

1-Pass the T-shirt and prick a pin where you want to place your Basque.

2. Cut the top.

Prepare the Basque

3. Cut a strip corresponding to the T-shirt X 2 tower (1.60m) and a desired height (here 30cm) + 1cm.

You can readjust the height according to the desired rendering.

4. To make the excess of the Basque, put the longest point of your machine and prick 1cm from the edge without making a back point at the start and at the end. Leave 20cm of wire to be able to shoot on each side and make your gathers. Pull the wires on both sides to form the gathers. You will readjust the gathers on the T-shirt.

 

5- Hitting on the bottom and stinging the side to form a tube.

6-Place the Basque Place of the T-shirt against the Fabric Place and readjust the gathers.

7- Machine sting.
