For many years, synthetic filling for duvets and pillows has been very popular. This is because this material has a number of advantages over fluff or cotton wool.
For example, a blanket made of padding polyester is soft, airy, light, hypoallergenic, easy to machine wash and dries quickly. The price of such products is much lower than other similar ones.
The good thing about padding polyester blankets is that you don’t have to wear a duvet cover for them, of course, unless it has several layers. The main thing is to choose a fabric that is pleasant to the body. It can be chintz, calico, satin, linen or cotton scraps collected together. Before work, the fabric must be wetted to avoid shrinkage in the future.
The stitch will decorate the blanket. Modern sewing machines have many beautiful stitches for this.
1) Before you start sewing, you need to lay the fabric out on a flat surface and draw lines along which the stitching will go. Then padding polyester, followed by fabric again. Spread all layers well.
2) I have a pattern of stars on the fabric that you can use to guide you, so I didn’t have to draw anything.
3) Some dressmakers pin all the layers. I find it convenient to baste with a needle and thread. I only do this in one direction.
4) Then I switch to the typewriter and scribble.
It is important here to lay the lines in one direction. If you started stitching from the upper right corner, then continue, after finishing the line you need to go back to the top. When there is a lot of blanket and it barely fits inside the machine, I twist it tightly and continue stitching.
If you unfold the blanket and continue to sew, then distortions will immediately appear on the fabric and everything will be ruined.
5) After the lines are sewn in one direction, I remove the basting threads and sew in the other direction.
6) To finish the edge I used straight binding. I placed it on the inside of the blanket and stitched it.
7) I do the corners like this.
8) In the corner I fold the strip at a right angle and stitch to the resulting diagonal. I'm putting an end to it.
9) Next I continue the line from this point. The result is a corner of fabric.
10) Then I turn the finishing strip right side out, fold it in two folds and stitch it.
Diamond and square stitches.
All the best!
