How To Make A Tie Pattern Step By Step.

1. Introduction: Hi, my name is Marie Marina, and I am so excited because I'm about to share with you how to make a tie pattern. A tie is the most important accessory that one can have in their closet. Not only because of its beauty, but it says a lot about one's personality. In this lesson, I'm going to share with you on how to draft a tie pattern and how to cut the pattern on the fabric. And then you're going to learn a skill on how to construct the whole tie. By the end of this lesson, you will definitely be able to bring about the project that you've made. Also, you might be able to gift someone with something special that is handmade guys, I'm so excited to start the first lesson with you. See you there. 2. Materials and Tools: Over here I've got my material, and this is a non stretch satin fabric. Also, I'm going to use this one with the print on the outside of the tie. Then I've also got my lining here. It's also a non stretch material. You guys can go ahead and pick any non stretch material as long as it doesn't. As for the tools, I've got my measuring tape and we're going to be using inches when we're drafting our pattern. Then the next thing is a straight ruler followed by a universal needle. Then we need our pins and a pair of scissors. Of course, we are going to need a pattern paper where we're going to be drafting our pattern. Lastly is our sewing machine guys, these are all the tools and materials we're going to need. See you on the next lesson. 3. Front and Back Pattern Drafting: Guys, we're going to start by drafting our front panel for the tie. The first thing that I am going to do is to mark a guideline right on the top and which is going to serve as the width of the tie, which is going to be 7 ". From that starting point, I am going to mark 7 ". Guys, from this starting point, I am going to mark the length of our tie, which is going to be around 35 ". Basically, what we are marking here is a rectangle of around 7 " by 35 inch. Now that we are complete, I am going to, from that line of there on top, I'm going to mark 1 " going in. Then also I'm going to mark 1 " going in onto the other side of the rectangle. Then I am going to drop only on one side, I am going to by 2 ". Then I am going to connect this two point over there and then connect it going up. Moving on to the bottom of our tie. I am going to mark from the bottom going up, I'm going to mark 10 ". And I'm going to do so on both sides. Now from that ten inch mark, I am going to extend it all the way up to that 1 ". We went by right on the top. Also on the opposite side from that ten inch point. I am going to connect it to that two inch marking that we went down by. Now we're done with the top part. We're going to go right at the bottom of this rectangle from this seven inch line. I am going to mark a center point. Once I'm done, I'm going to drop it by 3 ". Then I am going to create more of a triangular shape right at the bottom. Now our front panel piece for the tie is complete. The next thing we need to do is to create the back panel piece for the tie guys on the same pattern paper. I'm going to measure the distance, not to this one, but between the two points. I'm going to measure the distance. And it's going to be around 5 ". I am going to mark a rectangle of around 5 ". Now the length is going to be 27 ". That's going to be the length of the back panel piece for the tie. Now once we are done creating a rectangle for our back panel piece of the tie, we want to go ahead now, right on the top, mark 2 " going down. And then just connect it all the way to the corner. Now right at the bottom, I am going to find the center point. I'm going to create the center marking over there of 5 " and then go down by 2 " and then create a triangle, just like we did for the back pattern. So guys, once we are done drafting this panel pieces, the back in the front, it's time for us to cut it out. Now guys, to add seam allowance on this pattern, I'm going to go ahead on a new pattern. Paper and trace of the front panel piece of the tie and also the back. Then I'm going to add M allowance of around half an inch or one Mm allowance all around the back and the front panel piece of our tie guys, I am going to mark on my pattern that these two panel pieces, the back in the front, are going to be cut on the bias when we cut it on fabric guys. Once we're done adding seam allowances and also identifying that this has to be cut on a bias, the next thing is to cut this pattern on fabric. See you on the next lesson. 4. Cutting on Fabric: Guys over here, I've got my lining fabric and it is actually a non stretch material. As you can see, when I'm pulling it on the opposite direction, what I'm going to do is to, we're going to cut our pattern right on a bias where I'm actually marking. And as you can see, when I pull in an opposite direction, it has an amount of stretch. I'm going to first place my, my front and back panel on a bias like, so the front panel is actually facing up. Take note how I'm going to be placing the back panel piece. It's going to be placed on the opposite side of the front panel. Please make sure not to attempt to place this fabric across the material, but only on the byers. Also, take note that the back panel piece is facing down. Now once we're done pinning it down, you want to go ahead and cut out the two panel pieces. As you can see, our two panel pieces, they have stretch because we went ahead and cut them on a bias. I'm going to place them right sides facing and pin them right on the seam. You will see that the back panel piece tend to move towards the side which is okay. I'm going to go ahead and pin it down right sides facing. Then this is where we're going to take it to the sewing machine. Once we're done, it's going to be one panel. If you are going to be using a printed fabric, you can cut it out the same way as I did with the lining. Make sure that the back panel piece is facing down, the front panel piece of the tie is facing up. And place them on a bias as shown on the screen. The next thing is you want to cut out the panel pieces. Once you are done, you want to remove your pattern and then join the two panel pieces of the front and the back right side facing. You will notice like the lining, that the back panel piece tends to move towards the side, which is parts of sewing the tie guys. Over here I've got my lining and also the main fabric of the tie. On the next lesson, I am going to share with you how to construct it. See you there. 5. Tie Construction.: Guys, on the previous lesson, I showed you how to join the two panel pieces together. Now we're going to start by sewing the lining together with the main fabric, and we're going to sew a straight stitch to join the two panel pieces. Once we are done right at the seam, you mind to go ahead and open up the seam, then this is how it will look on the outside. We're going to take the lining, make sure that they are right sides facing on the seam. Then right on the tip, I'm first going to go ahead and pin it down. Once we are done, we want to take this to the sewing machine and saw only at the triangle, you want to do the same thing also onto the other side of the tie. Pin it down together with the lining and the main fabric. And so only at the triangle, if you notice that there are some fabric on your tie or in the triangle, go ahead and trim it off, guys, to get that nice pointiness right at the tip of the triangle. You want to place the pin down and pivot your fabric like so. And then continue sewing a straight line by doing so. This is how it will look and it will allow the tip of the tie to show. Very nice. Once we are done, you want to go ahead now and cut a little bit or creates a notch right at the tip. Make sure you don't cut through the seam. You want to do this on both sides of the tie. Then once you're done, you want to turn the triangle the right side, pushing the tip of the tie. This is how it will look once you're done with this. I want to take this into the pressing on and flatten out to the seam. Now the next thing we need to do, guys, is to close the side scene. I am going to make sure that the right sides are facing together. As I do this together with the lining, I am going to fold it right on the side because we cut this tie on a bias, it tends to move around. When we saw the sides right on the machine, I will advise that you carefully pin the tie before you take it into the sewing machine. Now, once we are done pinning, we want to take this to the sewing machine and sew a straight stitch guys. Once I'm done sewing a straight stitch, I'm going to take this into my overlok machine because this fabric can fray for a neat finishing on the inside. You also want to do the same thing. Take this into the sewing machine. If you don't have a surger, you can use a zigzag stitch guys. This is how it looks on the inside. Once you are done sewing it with our overlok, please make sure that you do not cut out the thread. I'm going to take my needle. I am going to pass the thread through the needle. And then pass the needle through the sewn seam or between the seam, and then cut out the axis thread. Then you want to do the same thing also onto the other side. The next thing that we need to do guys, is to turn this tie the correct side. There we go, guys. As you can see, no seam or thread is showing at all. The next thing we need to do now is to take this into the pressing ion, There we go guys. This is how it looks on the inside. As you can see, the same, no thread is showing whatsoever. I made this tie out of a certain fabric. You can use any fabric of your choice that you love. And as you can see guys, it came out so beautiful. I really cannot wait to see some of your finished project. Please tell me guys what you think. As for me guys, see you on the next one. 6. Conclution: Congratulations, if you have reached this part of your lesson, I'm already wearing this tie and I love the way it feels. I hope you will enjoy making this project as much as I did. Please do not forget to send you finished project. I'll really love to see it as for me. See you in the next one.
