DIY Chinese Furniture Edging Strip Qipao Tutorial214
Edge banding is a technique used to seal the exposed edges of plywood or other types of wood panels. It can be used to improve the appearance of the furniture, protect the edges from damage, and create a more durable and polished look. In this tutorial, we will show you how to make your own edge-banded qipao, a traditional Chinese dress.
Materials
1 yard of fabric
1 package of edge banding tape
Scissors
Ruler or measuring tape
Iron and ironing board
Sewing machine
Instructions
1. Cut the fabric to the desired size. The finished qipao should be about 36 inches long and 54 inches wide.
2. Hem the edges of the fabric. Fold the raw edge of the fabric under by 1/4 inch and press. Fold the edge under again by 1/4 inch and press again. Stitch the hem in place.
3. Apply the edge banding tape to the edges of the fabric. Center the edge banding tape on the raw edge of the fabric and press it on with a hot iron. Fold the edge banding tape over the edge of the fabric and press it on again. Stitch the edge banding tape in place.
4. Sew the side seams of the qipao. Fold the qipao in half lengthwise, with the right sides together. Stitch the side seams from the hem to the armholes.
5. Sew the shoulder seams of the qipao. Fold the qipao in half crosswise, with the right sides together. Stitch the shoulder seams from the neckline to the armholes.
6. Finish the qipao. Turn the qipao right side out and press it. Topstitch around the edges of the qipao, close to the edge banding tape. This will help to secure the edge banding tape and give the qipao a finished look.
Tips
Use a contrasting color of edge banding tape to create a more dramatic look.
If you are using a delicate fabric, be sure to use a light touch when ironing on the edge banding tape.
You can also use edge banding tape to finish the edges of other types of garments, such as skirts, pants, and jackets.
