The manufacture of an orthopedic bone cushion should begin with a choice of fabric, material in which it is planned to place the filler. In this matter it is recommended to use:
Soft and fluffy terry cloth for products
Lightweight and hypoallergenic synthetic fabric - fleece
Tight jersey quality
Although you should not rush to the store and choose your favorite fabric, without reading this article. It may well fit fabric from an unused bathrobe or towel. In the world wide web there are pillows made of silk and even natural leather.
In addition, you will need: thread, needle, scissors, cardboard, ruler, pencil and a little patience.
For the manufacture of pillows you will need materials and tools.
First of all, it is necessary to make a pattern, on the basis of which the whole further process will be built, making a road cushion.
Template for the manufacture of pillows-bone
To do this, it is proposed to perform the following steps in stages.
We print the template and combine 4 such parts in accordance with the figure, we get one of the three sides of the pillow
Cut out the details of the pillow, take into account the seam allowances
The resulting pattern of the future product must be attached to the inner side of the previously selected material and a continuous line along the contour. Using sharp scissors, cut the workpiece contour. Stock under the seam do not need.
Pre-do notch in the places of combination of parts
For the manufacture of orthopedic road cushion, you need three such blanks on the pattern.
Sliced with pins two details face to face
Tailoring of the product begins with the fact that all three blanks are correctly folded to form a three-dimensional bone.
We grind chipped parts
The seam starts from the narrowest point of the bone, from the inside of the material, further along the perimeter and ends in the same place. In total, there should be three seams.
We put a loop of tape or ribbon in the seam
This is the nested loop
When sewing products, it is recommended to use a sewing machine, however, for not having the last one, you can do with a needle and thread, although it will be more laborious.
We grind from notch to notch only on one side of the part.
We leave a small hole in the seam for turning the parts.
It is necessary to leave a non-stitched space 15-17 cm, intended for turning the product with the front side of the material.
Pinning the third part of our pillow
We attach the third detail of our design, remove the needles and make notches on all the bends of the seams.
Sewn on the pattern of the workpiece must be filled with filler, for the role of which is well suited:
Pieces of foam rubber are suitable for filling our pillow.
Furniture and textile filler - synthetic winterizer
Balls hollofayber - elastic, keeping the shape and elasticity of the filler
We turn out our cover through the left hole.
We fill the pillow with suitable filler
It is not advised that the orthopedic pillow should be packed too tightly, it should be moderately soft and dense, generally comfortable.
It remains the last stitch and the product, in the form of an orthopedic road cushion of the bone - ready!
Sew a hole with hidden stitches
The whole procedure takes no more than an hour, and the result, as they say, “on the face,” or rather on the neck. Which many times will say thank you for the opportunity to use such a wonderful product.
Our bone cushion is ready, you can use it to relax.
