Today, women's clothing stores offer such a large assortment that it may seem that sewing a women's windbreaker with your own hands, the patterns of which will be discussed in this article, is a completely unjustified activity. However, if you think about it, you can discover a lot of advantages and benefits of sewing yourself.

First of all, this is savings. As a rule, sewn items are several times cheaper. Also, do not forget that when modeling a style yourself, you can take your favorite parts from various models and combine them together in your product. Well, the most important thing is the color and size, which, as practice shows, can be very difficult to choose when choosing a ready-made windbreaker. Either the item is large, or it fits perfectly with the eye color, but it is too small, or it fits perfectly, but the shade does not satisfy the needs. So it turns out that in the huge assortment of fashion stores you can waste several hours of time and still not find a suitable option.

Whether it's a matter of self-tailoring! Moreover, the pattern of a windbreaker for a female model is very simple to construct, and even the most inexperienced craftswoman can sew it.

Taking measurements

Sewing any clothing begins with taking measurements. The pattern or men's pattern is based on the basic measurements: waist, hip and chest circumference, shoulder width, sleeve length and product length. This item differs from other women's outerwear in that there are no darts in it either on the chest or on the waist, which greatly facilitates the construction of a template and minimizes the number of measurements taken from the figure.

Building a shelf template

To build a template, you will need newspaper, glued sheets of paper or construction film. They will need to indicate the boundaries of the drawing. It should be a rectangle with sides that will correspond to the half-circumference of the chest + a few centimeters for a loose fit (the amount depends on the style), the other side should be equal to the length of the product from the shoulder to the bottom.

The windbreaker pattern for the female model in the drawing is constructed as follows:

1. At a distance of 25-30 cm (and for large sizes 35-40 cm) from the upper side of the rectangle, they lay it, which is designated as the chest line.
2. Next, divide this straight line into parts: the width of the back, the armhole area (the size of the half-circumference of the chest is divided by 4 and add 2 cm), the front shelf area.
3. Then proceed to the neck in the upper corners of the rectangle. They retreat from the corner towards the rectangle by 6 cm and deepen the neck on the back by 5 cm, and in the front by 5-6 cm.
4. Next, the shoulder seams are marked from the extreme points of the neckline, lowering them by 1.5 cm from the upper side of the drawing border.
5. Then find the middle of the armhole on the chest line and lower straight lines from the edge of the shoulder sections. Then draw out the armhole, rounding the corners.
6. If the length of the product is above the hips or the measurement of the hips is similar to the chest, then all construction can be completed there. If the hips are wider, you should take into account the difference and flare the side cut, which descends from the middle point of the armhole perpendicular to the lower border of the drawing.

Thus, as a result of all the manipulations, you will get windbreakers, or rather, halves of the back and front templates. Next you should start developing the sleeve.

Construction of the sleeve

The finished pattern for a women's windbreaker should consist of half a back, a front flap and a sleeve. Different cutters use different methods for constructing a sleeve, but the principle is always the same: the collar should fit perfectly into the armhole along the front and back. To build this element, you should combine ready-made shelf templates along the shoulder seams and transfer the armhole line to a separate sheet. Next, the rounding at the shoulder must be closed into a circle. Along its lower border, place the “width of the upper arm” measurement in the center. On the top - step back 1.5 cm and smoothly reduce the curves from this point to nothing. Next, all that remains is to outline the edging line and make a control measurement of compliance with the length of the armhole cut.

Construction of the hood and collar

The pattern for a women's windbreaker with a hood differs only in that, in addition to the shelves and sleeves, a template for the hood should be developed. It's quite simple to do. You should measure the circumference of the head and measure the length from the forehead to the back of the head through the crown and the height of the hood (from the shoulder to the crown). The construction is made in a rectangle, where the sides are equal to the height of the hood and the half-circumference of the head.

The measurement taken from the forehead to the back of the head should be laid through one of the upper corners of the rectangle, while the sharp edge should be rounded, and the straight line should be lowered to the forehead area by 1-2 cm. In the area of ​​the occipital section, the line should be shifted 3-4 cm inward rectangle. The base line of the hood, along which it will connect to the windbreaker, should be made curved. At the back of the head - raised by 3 cm, and towards the face, on the contrary, lowered. This will ensure the hood fits correctly and will eliminate unnecessary folds at the back of the head.

The collar is much easier to make. It will require a strip of fabric equal to twice the height and width corresponding to the cut of the neckline.

Style modeling

The basic pattern of a windbreaker for a female model is already half the battle. Everything else is just details. At the modeling stage, the location of pockets, stripes of decorative elements and other shaped elements are worked out. By the way, the pockets can be slashed with zippers or patch pockets, as well as a combination of one with the other.

Using this description, you can sew completely different models. Need a plus size women's windbreaker? The pattern described above is perfect for absolutely any build. Flare the bottom a little, add drawstrings and cords on the sides to gather the side seams, similar design of the sleeves and collar - and an excellent windbreaker for a plus-size lady is ready.

Design options for elastic cuffs

Windbreakers are characterized by cuffs at the bottom of the product and on the sleeves. To decorate them, you can take special knitted ties or ribbed fabric, or, using the main fabric and a wide elastic band, you can make these elements yourself. A strip of fabric the length of the stretched elastic and its double width, inserted elastic inside, stitched every half centimeter - and the cuffs are ready.

A little about choosing fabrics

The most successful material for a windbreaker is raincoat fabric. This material will protect well from the wind and can withstand light rain. If you take warm fleece for the product, then the windbreaker pattern for the female model will miraculously turn into a warm and cozy anorak.

An option with leatherette or varnish fabric would also look good. However, the choice depends on your own preferences and taste.

Working with the lining

If you sew a windbreaker without a lining, then this will be an excellent option for cool summer evenings, but if you need a warmer model, then it is better to have a lining, or you can even use a quilted jacket with a small layer of synthetic padding.

To cut it you will need the same windbreaker pattern for the female model. First, all the elements of the top of the product are assembled, then the lining is completely sewn together, and then they are connected.

The assembly sequence is as follows: first along the neckline and front cut; further along the bottom, and then in the sleeves.

To ensure that all joints are beautifully decorated, they are sewn through a hole in one of the sleeves. Lastly, the sleeve is sewn up.

Patterns are given without seam allowances.

Pattern contents:

The quilted jacket fits well thanks to front and back reliefs. The originality of the model lies in the technically well-thought-out oblique shelf with a strip covering the zipper. The collar is a high stand-up collar that serves as an excellent alternative to a scarf in windy weather.

Difficulty level - above average. Practical skills and experience in sewing are required.

Pattern measurements sample sizes (measurements of unpublished sizes are determined as the arithmetic mean between adjacent sizes):

To sew a quilted jacket, prepare the necessary materials:
. jacket or raincoat fabric;
. non-woven fabric synthetic winterizer with a density of 150 g/sq. m (thickness 1.5-2 cm);
. non-woven fabric synthetic winterizer with a density of 100 g/sq. m (thickness 1-1.5 cm);
. tractor detachable zipper - 1 pc.;
. interlining for duplication;
. snap buttons or Velcro;
. lining fabric.

Clarifications: different densities of padding polyester require distribution of seam density and freedom of movement. On the details of the sleeves and collar, you need to quilt the fabric with a padding polyester of lower density.

To make a practical fastener, take a high-quality tractor or spiral zipper. For the lining, you can choose a fabric of your choice: fleece, quilted insulated lining, viscose, polyester.

Please note an important point! Evaluate the real capabilities of your sewing machine. Not every stationary unit can adequately handle stitching fabric on thick synthetic padding. Pay attention to the ready-made jacket fabrics; you may be able to immediately buy ready-made quilted fabric. Then for the leaf you need to choose an unquilted material to match the main one.

Stitch

Let's immediately deal with the most important starting point. The stitch can be done on a whole fabric or on separate parts. The main fabric is laid over the padding polyester so that its edges protrude a few cm around the perimeter. This is difficult, since it is necessary to paint the surface with precise lines at equal distances.

The second method is easier. The cut parts must be laid out on padding polyester, secured with pins and sewn perpendicular lines, periodically checking the coincidence of the stripes on adjacent cut parts. The quilted parts should be stitched around the perimeter and cut out, leaving a small gap of padding polyester - approximately 0.5-1 cm.

Uncover

From the main fabric:
- central part of the back - 1 child. with fold;
- side of the back - 2 children;
- shelf side - 2 pieces;
- the central part of the shelf with a beveled front cut - 1 piece;
- the central part of the shelf to the half-skid line (marked as a dotted line) - 1 piece;
- cutting part of the beveled front half to the half-skid line (marked as a dotted dot) - 1 piece;
- bar - 1 child. with fold;
- collar - 2 children. with fold;
- sleeve - 2 parts;
- folded leaflet - 2 pieces;
- burlap - 2 pieces;

From padding polyester:
. central part of the back - 1 child. with fold;
. back flank - 2 parts;
. shelf side - 2 pieces;
. the central part of the shelf with a beveled front cut - 1 piece;
. the central part of the shelf to the half-skid line (marked as a dotted line) - 1 piece;
. cutting part of the beveled front half to the half-skid line (marked as a dotted dot) - 1 piece;
. bar - 1 child. with a fold (from thin padding polyester);
. collar - 2 children. with a fold (from thin padding polyester);
. sleeve - 2 pieces. (from thin padding polyester);
. leaf with fold - 2 children. (from thin padding polyester).

From the lining:

The central part of the back - 1 child. with a fold (+ 2 cm away from the fold for an oncoming fold - for a loose fit along the back);
- side of the back - 2 children;
- shelf side - 2 pieces;
- the central part of the shelf to the half-skid line (marked as a dotted line) - 2 parts;
- sleeve - 2 parts;
- burlap - 2 pieces;

When cutting out parts, do not forget to add seam allowances and mark notches to ensure proper alignment of the parts. Allowances for raised seams, neckline, armhole - 1 cm, side allowances - 1.5 cm, placket and front center cut - 1 cm, lower cuts of back and front, as well as sleeves - 3 cm. Immediately mark the location of pockets in raised seams . Duplicate the leaves.

Selection of model and materials

Sewing a leather jacket can be quite simple, the main thing is to accurately decide on the model at the very beginning. There are several common types of jackets: classic, youth and biker (leather jackets).

• For easier sliding on the material, you can use sunflower oil.
• It is better to use the lining for a leather jacket from natural materials, thus avoiding the sauna effect when worn.
• To glue individual elements, you can use non-woven glue.
• You can use chalk to make marks when creating a pattern - after that it can be easily washed off with a regular soft cloth dipped in water.

In the next master class, we will look at the construction and sewing of a fashionable leather jacket, which has long held a leading position in the wardrobes of people of all ages.

Model:

Pattern

This stylish jacket is a perfect addition to any wardrobe, as it can be combined with both trousers and dresses. Designers recommend choosing calm, dark colors for sewing a classic biker jacket, however, absolutely nothing prevents you from decorating it with decorative elements.

Reference! Making a pattern is quite an interesting and time-consuming process. You can purchase it on various online resources or build it yourself.

We decided to carry out the calculations ourselves and describe this process in detail.

The construction of the pattern takes place in several stages:

1. First you need to take measurements of size 48: Half neck circumference (19.5), 1/2 chest circumference (48), sleeve length (60), product length (78).
2. On paper, mark a 90 degree angle with point A at its apex.
3. From point A to the right, set aside the PoG size with a fit allowance of +15 cm (48+15=63 cm) and mark B.
4. From A down, draw a line 78 cm +2 and mark H (AH = 80) and draw horizontally from H, and from B vertically 2 lines. Mark the crossing point B1.
5. Marking of the chest line: from A 1/3 of half the chest circumference +8 cm, mark as G (AG=48/3+8=24). To the right side of G, draw parallel to AB and mark G1 at the intersection with the vertical line from B.
6. For the wide side of the back along the chest line from G, mark 1/3 PoG + 7 cm, mark g (48/3 + 7 = 23 cm). From this mark upward, draw parallel to the line of the back, and at the point of intersection with AB, mark C.
7. The size of the wide part of the armhole along the chest line: from g, draw 1/4 PoG + 5 cm - point g1 (48/4 + 5 = 17 cm). Up from r1, draw a line of parallel to the middle part of the front of C1.
8. The wide part of the sprout: along AB to the right side of A 1/8 PoG + 1.5 cm a (48/8 + 1.5 = 7.5).
9. High part of the sprout: Draw a line up from a, which is equal to 1/2 of the wide part of the sprout - 1 cm, mark as a1 (7.5/2-1 = 2.8 cm), a, a1 and A combine.
10. Bevel for the shoulder along the back: From C, put 2 cm down and mark point.
11. The wide side of the shoulder for the back: connect a1 and p, on the segment g g1, divide it into 2 equal parts and place O. From g, draw a line of 3.5 cm to divide the angle in half g2.
12. I will unite the back armhole at points p1, p2, r2 and O.
13. We build the wide part of the neckline along the front as follows: from point B, set aside 1/8 PoG + 1.5 cm and mark B1 (BB1 = 48/8 + 1.5 = 7.5 cm). Draw a line 7.5 cm down from B. Mark it as b. Connect B1 and b.
14. Bevel for the front shoulder: set aside 2.5 cm from C1 and mark p3.
15. Armhole: combine p4, p5, g3 and O.
16. To build a sleeve, you need to measure a rectangle with a height A of 60 cm + 4 cm for seams and freedom of fit, and width AB = PoG + 3 = 48 + 3 = 51 cm.
17. The sleeve cap is built on PoG/8+2 and is equal to 8. Its center is exactly in the middle of 25.5 cm.

Thus, according to the cutting pattern on the artificial leather canvas, the following should be obtained:

Sewing stages

After the pattern is ready and all the elements have been cut using leatherette fabric, you need to thread them together:

• You should start by sewing on the pockets. To do this, attach the rectangular piece to the location of the pocket from the wrong side. It is recommended to treat the pocket immediately - locks, rivets or other decorative elements that you like.
• After this, you need to connect the shoulder seams.
• Sew the collar blank into the neckline.
• Next, you should process the sleeves and cuffs.
• Connect at the sides.
• Hem the bottom of the jacket.

Attention! Keep in mind that sloppy seams or shoulder seams on a finished jacket can be covered with patches, straps or rivets, so don't worry about there being a slight error somewhere.

Thus, we are convinced that it is quite possible to sew a leather jacket yourself! However, this process requires a certain perseverance and patience.

To sew a women's insulated jacket you need:

1. Raincoat fabric.

2. Lining fabric

3. Insulation. In this case, padding polyester with a density of 120 g/sq.m for the lining and padding polyester with a density of 150 g/sq.m for the top material.

4. Zippers, threads, buttons, faux fur for the edge of the hood.

How to sew a jacket? We start the process by sewing the lining. To begin, we sew the shelves with the edges. Then we sew the side parts to the center of the shelves. Afterwards you need to sew up the darts. Sew the side sections and shoulders. Carefully sew on the sleeves.

Jacket top: sew the center of the shelves and the side parts. Sew up the darts. Why do we sew the shoulder parts, the sides of the front and the back. Then we sew in the sleeves.

Jacket collar: You need to measure your neck size. The size of the finished collar should be 6 cm. Depending on the size of the neck, you need to cut a strip of fabric of such a size that the finished part is 6 cm. But do not forget to add 1 cm to the seams.

In order to sew a zipper, use a gel pen or chalk to mark the place on the right and left sides of the jacket. And carefully sew it on.

Jacket pocket: cut out a pocket for our jacket in the shape you want. We cut out the lining in the same shape. We connect both parts. Sew a finishing seam of about 1 cm along the top of the pocket. Carefully mark with chalk on the shelf the place where you will sew it. Then we carefully adjust it.

Belt: We cut out a strip of fabric 9 cm wide. We put interlining on the upper part of the belt, bend it lengthwise and iron it with an iron. We bend the edges inward and sew with a finishing seam.

Assembling the jacket: You need to sew on the lining starting from the sleeves. Bottom to bottom. And so on, carefully and evenly every detail.

Sew the collar to the neck. Spreading the finishing seam along the collar and front. We do the same at the bottom of the sleeves. We fold the bottom of the jacket and also carefully hem it.

Our jacket is ready. Now you know everything about how to sew a jacket.

Warm jackets

The most famous type of insulation in the world is synthetic winterizer. This material is easy to work with, easy to find in any store, and also has a reasonable price. But still it has its drawbacks. At low temperatures it loses its thermal properties and deteriorates from hot iron and steam. It also loses thickness over time, especially after washing.

Let's look at how to properly sew a product with insulation using the example of sewing a jacket for a boy.

Jackets for children

It’s also easy to make a jacket for your child. So, let's figure out how to sew a jacket for a boy with your own hands.

To do this you will need:
- Fabric for a jacket.
- Lining.
- Lightning.
-
- Threads.
- Paper for patterns.

When cutting out the parts, do not forget to leave 1 cm for the seams. Transfer the pattern onto paper.

From the fabric for the jacket and from the lining we cut out the following details:

• Back - 1 pc.
• Before - 2 pcs.
• Sleeve - 2 pcs.
• Hood - 2 pcs.

Sewing a jacket

We connect the back and sleeves. Using the main jacket fabric, we sew together the sides and sleeves. We do the same actions with the lining.

On the back of the jacket we mark the middle. We connect the seam of the hood to the middle back. We put a lining inside the hood. On the front parts there will need to be an allowance of 1 cm wide for sewing in a zipper. Carefully fold the remaining edges at the bottom of the zipper.

We fold the rubber cuffs in half and sew them in the same way as the hood.

After this, carefully attach the zipper, while retreating 3 cm from the bottom of the jacket.
All that remains is to carefully hem the bottom of our jacket. The product is ready.

Leather jackets

Let's learn how to sew a leather jacket.

Many people think that a leather jacket is a terribly difficult task. But if you set a goal and approach this issue as correctly as possible, then there are really no difficulties in this.

If you have basic sewing skills and know how to work with patterns, then perhaps it's time to try something new. Working with leather has its own characteristics:

Under no circumstances should leather fabric be basted with a needle, as the puncture points with the needle will remain forever.

In order to fasten two parts together, you can use superglue or different clamps.

When working with patterns, you need to take into account the density of the leather. If it is too soft, then you need to leave more space for the seams.

How to sew a jacket with your own hands

When all the patterns have been transferred to paper, all the nuances have been taken into account and finalized, you can try to start sewing. Try to lay out the patterns on the fabric as economically as possible. Use chalk to outline all the details. This can be done both from the wrong side and from the front side. Since our material is very soft and easy to stretch, all details must be duplicated with a special fabric - dublerin. It can be bought at any specialized store. To give the leather additional volume, glue the leather with foam rubber in the places you need and carefully sew.

As carefully as possible, connect all the parts of the jacket. Sew on the sleeves and collar.
We cut out the same parts from the lining fabric as from the main one. We connect all the lining parts. Then very carefully sew the lining fabric to the main product. It's better to start with the sleeves. Then along the bottom of the jacket, then the front and neck. This is how easy it is to sew a jacket with your own hands.

Winter jackets

If you want a jacket made of padding polyester, the question you need to decide is: what material to choose for sewing? Basically, such products are made from artificial leather or raincoat fabric. There is, of course, a difference in price, so first decide how much you are willing to spend on fabric.

Once you have chosen your fabric, you can get to work. So, how to sew a jacket using padding polyester with your own hands?

For this jacket you will need:
- artificial leather - 2.5 m.
- fabric for lining - 2.2 m.
- padding polyester 200 - 2.5 m.
- raincoat fabric - 1 m.
- zipper 80 cm long.
- standard zippers for pockets - 2 pcs.

How to sew a jacket on padding polyester

We transfer the sample pattern onto paper. Then we cut out the details of our product from insulation and main fabric. All parts are connected to each other with pins, taking into account the places for the seams.

You quilt each detail along the marking lines, marking them in advance on the front side of the fabric. For this, of course, artificial leather is better suited, since by making marks on the front side, they can be easily washed off later. If you are working with another fabric and cannot make marks on the face, then do it from the wrong side of the fabric, then baste, and only then stitch together with the padding polyester.

To make the side pockets of the jacket you will need:
- 2 pocket pieces each from the main fabric, lining and insulation (and you need to take only half of the insulation layer, i.e. carefully divide the padding polyester layer into 2 equal thicknesses by hand).
- 2 pieces of strip (to add volume) from the main and from the lining fabric.

For each piece, do not forget to leave room for an allowance of 1.5 cm.

We quilt and then sew the strip parts to the insulation pockets. We do the same actions with the details of the stripes and pockets made of lining fabric. We connect the pocket parts from the lining and the main fabric with the right sides and sew them together. Turn out the finished pockets through the cut.

We sew the finished pockets to our jacket, bending the edges in order to hide the lining.

We carefully connect and sew together all the prepared and pre-quilted parts of our product.

Sewing a hood

We cut out the details of the hood from black raincoat fabric and sew them together. For the inside of the hood, we cut in the same parts from a different fabric and carefully sew them into the middle of the hood, then turn them inside out. We attach both lower parts of our hood to the middle of the neck of the jacket.

We cut out the parts for the bottom of our jacket and facing. We connect them right sides to the bottom of the jacket and sew them on.

For a hanger loop, you need to cut a piece of fabric in the form of a 1x8 cm strip. Of course, you can buy a finished piece, for example, in the form of a chain.

We sew it in the middle while connecting the facing and edging parts.

In order to sew a zipper into the product, we apply our zipper to the left and right parts of our jacket face to face and carefully stitch them. Before applying the zipper, step back 1 cm from the bottom of the jacket. This is done so that the finished product does not stick out at the bottom due to the fastener.

In the same way, carefully sew together the lining parts of our jacket. Sew on the lining, starting from the bottom of the jacket. Then we sew the sleeves from the main fabric and lining and connect them to the jacket.

Now the jacket is ready.

Demi-season jackets

It would also be useful to learn how to sew a jacket for spring with your own hands.

With the onset of warm days, you want to take off your heavy fur coats and jackets and put on light, spring ones. If you are tired of your old things, you can try to make such a jacket yourself.

To work you will need:

Synthetic leather;

Sintepon;

Lining fabric;

Zip fastener;

Short zippers for pockets.

We transfer the pattern samples onto paper. Then carefully draw it onto the fabric and cut it out.

Parts List:

Back - 2 children. middle part, 2 children. sides, 1 child. cut with a fold;

Shelves - 2 children. sides, 2 children. middle part, 2 children. central part, 2 children. planks;

Collar.

We connect the parts of the back of the jacket with pins, then carefully stitch and iron.

In the same way, we baste or connect with pins the parts of the middle part of the shelves with the side ones and also stitch them.

Baste the parts of the shelf strip together and sew them together. Then process the darts and iron towards the center.

Then alternately connect the parts from the lining and the main fabric.
We prepare and cut it out of fabric. We connect and sew the parts of the stand, sewing a collar between them.

Then we sew together the parts of the finished product from the lining and from the main fabric. We do the same with the sleeve parts and carefully sew them into the middle of the jacket.

The patterns will tell you in more detail how to sew a jacket with your own hands.

Everyone knows that all good things come to an end. And no matter how much we love warm summer days, they will definitely be followed by cold autumn and winter evenings. With the onset of cold weather, we have to spend money on warm jackets and raincoats. But why not try to make such products yourself? Moreover, it is not as difficult as some people think. All you need for this is to have at least the slightest knowledge of the features of the cut.

Examples of patterns

Let's look at the most common patterns for autumn and winter jackets. Here's an example of how to sew a jacket using photo patterns.

You don't have to waste money on expensive fashion magazines. All you need to do is start your own collection of patterns and pamper yourself with new things whenever you want.

When you think about sewing outerwear with your own hands, the main criterion for you is the quality and style of the product. You won’t be able to sew such a thing yourself (“out of your head”). So you will first have to stock up on patterns. If you spend your time and effort on the work, you will succeed in everything. And you can proudly boast to your friends that this is your job.
