Introduction

In this tutorial, you'll learn how to make a superb banana into a kakemono (communication poster) using a sewing machine.

Matériaux

Kakemono, Thread, Inner tube, Zipper

Outils

Sewing machine, scissors, needle > 90

Étape 1 - Making the pattern

Copy the attached pattern onto the coloured part of the kakemono (unlike the photo in the tutorial). Then cut out the different parts using scissors.


Pattern inspired by the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tS9vXfhAzlU&feature=youtu.be




Étape 2 - Zip seam/overlay

For the sewing you can follow the tutorial by starting the video at 5:45 because the kakemono is too rigid to make zip covers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tS9vXfhAzlU&feature=youtu.be


You can use pins to hold the fabric in place.

For steps 2 and 3, open the zip to make it easier.

Sew the rounded part of the top face with part of the zip.



Étape 3 - Zipper/front seam

Sew the other part of the zip to the longer side of the front.




Étape 4 - Front/back sewing

Sew the second long side of the front panel to the rounded part of the underside.



Étape 5 - Side seams

Sew the 2 pieces on opposite sides together (top and bottom), with the plain side facing outwards (as the piece is small, it cannot be turned inside out).



Étape 6 - Side/front seams

Pin the two pieces previously created to the sides of the front panel.




Étape 7 - Back seam

Pin the back to the top, bottom and sides of the front, then sew the back and sides together. Don't forget the pieces for attaching the belt.



Étape 8 - Inner tube strap

Measure and cut the inner tube to the desired size depending on how you want to wear it (on your waist, slung over your shoulder...).

It is also possible to fit a buckle system to make the strap adjustable.

Passer ensuite la chambre à air dans l'espace laissé ouvert sur les côtés puis coudre pour assurer le maintien de la sangle avec le reste du sac.
