How to sew the cotton veil?
Cotton sails are fine, transparent and rather delicate fabrics.
It will therefore be necessary to sew them with caution and patience.
Use A fine sewing machine needle, if possible a microtex.
For pretty finishes and lasting seams, we recommend that you do not use overwhelmer to surfing the edges but rather to opt for a finish in English seams.
The English sewing consists in sewing your pieces against the right side, then turning them back and performing a second bite, this time against the place.
This allows you to have clean seams, hidden between two bites, and in fact very solid.
Due to the transparency of cotton veil fabrics, English seams are really ideal for this material.
You can also, if you want, for example, sewing flies on your cotton sewing project, use the overweight to achieve what are called Rolled hems.
There are many YouTube tutorials to accompany you in this technique if you do not know it.
If you do not have overwhelming, you can also make Holder hems.
Do not hesitate to take your time to sew your coupon and apply to each step: this guarantees a nice sewing project that we will appreciate carrying or offering!
As with most fabrics, we recommend that you wash well and iron your cotton veil before cutting it.
Many fabrics shrink at the first washing: it is therefore better to start your project sewing good bases with a clean fabric, ironed and good dimensions.
When you have finished your creation, share it on the networks using #Mylittle Coupon and identifying us.
We will be delighted to see how you gave new life to our coupons!
