Do-it-yourself armchair

The breast chair is not just a convenient piece of furniture, but the very embodiment of freedom. It appeared in Italy in Italy in Italy in Italy, a symbol of a new era, new design and new ideas. Today, a legendary pear of a pear can do a pear with their own hands, everyone who has basic skills in a sewing machine can do.

Design features

The very first model of the chair was called Sacco, which is translated from Italian means “bag”. The unpretentious laconicism in the name and design brought this find with a frantic success that has not weakened for more than 70 years. Everyone who is not averse to lying in front of the TV or with a book in their hand, which means almost all people on the planet! Its charm lies not only in convenience, the breast chair will instantly revive the interior, giving it notes of European freedom.

Any manipulations with sewing begin with a pattern. The pattern of the loading chair is simple to disgrace, but you can’t do without it, especially if you are doing it for the first time. Before proceeding with the creation of the scheme, it is necessary to figure out what the chair consists of?

The design of the chair-bag:

• the external cover is a removable part that can be unfastened and washed;
• internal bag;
• filler;
• fasteners.

The principle of creation is very reminiscent of sewing a pillow consisting of the main part, full of fluff and pillowcases that can be changed.

Materials for sewing

Flasps should be on the inner and outer covers, so that at any time you can change the “skin” or add filler.

It is better to sew an internal cover of dense material, for example, canvas or upholstery for furniture. It is better that the fabric is not only dense, but also slippery, so if you have old synthetic curtains in your closet, feel free to put them into business! Any decorative fabric that fits into the interior is suitable for the outer “pillowcase”.

An adult bag will require an equal amount of dense fabric for the inner cover and decorative fabric-for the outer shell. So, with a roll width 115-120 cm, you will need 4.6 meters. With a width of 135-150 cm, you need to buy 3.2 meters of fabric. Do not forget to buy lightning 2 pcs. 56 cm each.

Balls of polystyrene or granules of plastic are used as a filler for a loading chair. For a large chair, you will need about 0.5 cubic meters of material.

The pattern will be placed on a millimeter or different paper for a pattern.

A children's breast chamber is sewn on the same principle, only materials requires much less. So, the cover will require 2.7 or 2.3 meters of dense fabric, depending on the width of the roll. Lightning for a small chair should be 46 cm. The filler will require about 0.3 cubic meters.

Useful advice: For an external case of a children's chair, use a dense considerable fabric. If possible, sew a case of thin dermatin so that it can be easily cleaned without removing.

Pattern

Progress:

1. Using the proposed scheme, make a pattern for wedges of the chair on a millimeter. According to the scale, transfer the pattern from the circuit.
   
2. To make a pattern of the upper part of the chair, fold the millimeter in half and mark the approximate middle of the fold line. Then draw a circle with a radius of 11.5 cm for a children's chair and 14 cm for an adult. This can be done using a ruler and pencil, putting a pencil by the end of the line rotating it around the central point.
3. To create a pattern of the base of the chair, fold the paper in half, and, as described above, draw a circle with a diameter of 25.5 cm for a children's chair and 30.5 cm for an adult. Expand the millimeter, make a retreat 1.3 cm from the bend and draw a parallel line. Cut along the line. A smaller part of the circle will be a template for the base.
4. Scroll 6 wedges for the inner and outer cover.
5. Cross the upper parts for covers.
6. Cross the grounds for covers.

How to sew a chair

When the patterns are ready, you can sit behind the sewing machine.

Progress:

1. Start with the base of the chair, connecting parts of the base with the front sides. Make an indent from the edge of 1.3 cm and sweep the parts. Stitch 2.5 cm from the edges and defeat the seam.
2. Apply the central part of the zipper to the suture line. For more convenience, they can be glued. Using a special leg on a sewing machine, set up a zipper without reaching 5-6 mm to cloves. Pull the auxiliary thread.
3. Combine the side wedges with the facial sides and sew, not forgetting to make an indent of 1.3 cm. Connect all 6 wedges to get the canvas. Do not sew the first and last wedges! Cut all the seams on one side.
4. Stitch all the seams on the front side, making a retreat of 1 cm. Thus, you must capture all the desired seams from the inside and fix them so that then the ledges and tubercles do not form under the lining. If this is not done, the filler will clog under the allowances, and the chair will be uncomfortable.
5. Stitch the last seam, go along the upper part of the chair and make a small incision 1.3 cm.
6. Divide the cut part for the upper part of the chair into 6 equal parts (how to cut the cake), connect the planned points with the seams connecting the wedges. Make sure that the front side of the upper element coincides with the wedges, and set up with an indent of 1.3 cm.
7. Now it is necessary to iron allowances in the lateral parts. On the same principle, add the lower element of the chair (base). To make it more convenient, slightly open the zipper.
8. When the matter is done, turn the cover through the ajar zipper and select all the seams on the front side, retreating 1 cm.
9. The same thing now needs to be done with a decorative fabric for the second cover.

It is necessary to fill the inner cover with polystyrene balls only when the “sheathing” is ready. Insert the inner cover into the external and only after that fill it with balls. Close lightning and enjoy a well-deserved rest in a comfortable armchair (photo).

Useful tips

Since the polystyrene foam granules are incredibly light, you should not order them in kilograms if you buy material over the Internet. So, a package weighing only 10 kg will take the area of \u200b\u200bthe average passenger car. In this case, you will have to either look for a place for storing such a number of polystyrene foam, or sew the arms-fur chairs with all your friends.

Be careful while filling the inner cover with balls. Close the windows so that there is no draft or gusts of wind, otherwise your entire filler will fly around the room.
