Hoe een kubus naaien?

At first, sewing cubes seems intimidating, but with careful consideration to your seam allowance, it’s very simple. You might end up creating more cubes because you had so much fun putting one together. If you understand the fundamentals of sewing a 3-D corner for a cube, you can create countless cube patterns. Let’s jump right into our subject.

How to sew a cube?

This method applies to any undertaking where three pieces must meet precisely at a 90-degree angle. All you need for this project is fabric of your choice, a naaimachine, thread, and a needle. We will be discussing the steps to sew a 3-D corner for a cube:

1. Six identical fabric pieces should be cut out. Connect the first two pieces by sewing. Sewing should begin and finish 1/4 inch from the fabric’s end. This is based on a seam margin of 1/4 inch. If your seam allowance is 1/2 inch, for instance, begin and finish 1/2 inch from the ends.

2. To accomplish this, stack your fabric sections side by side, edges aligned. A few stitches are taken after placing the needle 1/4 inch from the border. Stitch across the entire project using back stitches to secure the strands. Set your needle down and repeat the back stitch 1/4 inch from the finish.

3. The third piece of fabric should be affixed; you want them to form a “L” shape. Again, bring the sides of the cloth together as you align it. After that, align the edges of the first two sections and fold the third piece’s seam allowance out of the way. You are able to do this because you left 1/4 inch at the seam’s end.

4. Back stitch to secure the stitches as you sew this seam, starting and stopping once more 1/4 inch from each cloth end.

5. The final closure should be sewn. To create the corner, fold the fabrics. Once more, sew while tucking the seam allowances out of the way. This time, you can sew off the end at the point where the three pieces of cloth intersect. Be mindful, however, to backstitch.

6. Turn your corner right way out once the third seam is complete, and you’re done.

7. If you want to build a cube, keep adding squares to form the shape of a cube. When it’s time to make the final seam, stitch the corners while leaving a space along the edge’s center to allow you to turn the cube right side out. The hole must be hand-stitched shut.

How to sew a pincushion cube?

Many prefer large cube pincushions to flat pillows because the long sewing pins won’t poke through to the bottom. If you created this pincushion cube larger, it would be perfect for use as a pillow.

Before you begin sewing and after you finish, there are a few things to bear in mind:

• It’s crucial to maintain a constant seam margin. It is not important what your seam allowance is; what is important is that you know it and use it regularly. To get correct cube corners, you must measure the length of your seam allowance along the fabric edge.

• All seams, unless otherwise specified, are 1/4″.

• At the start and finish of each seam, backstitch the seams thoroughly. To prevent the edges of your cube from falling apart, this is crucial.

• You can use solid sections of fabric or piece your cube’s sides together. You have the choice of hand sewing any material before putting the cube together.

• After you’ve sewn your pincushion together, feel free to add whatever design you want to it by hot gluing or hand stitching.

Prerequisite materials:

• One 5.5″ square fabric- Top of cube.

• Four 5.5″ x 7.5″ rectangle fabrics- Sides of cube.

• Two 2.5″ x 3.5″ rectangles fabrics- Pockets.

• Five 2.5″ x 18″ strips of various fabrics- Dresden Fans.

• Five-inch Smooth foam cube.

• One-yard Ric Rac.

• Ruler and mat.

• Rotary cutter.

• Craft Glue.

• Matching thread for top-stitching.

• Sharp scissors.

• Easy Dresden Ruler.

Steps:

1. In accordance with the aforementioned dimensions, cut the top, sides, and pockets. Use the Easy Dresden ruler to alternately cut three fans—one of each color—from the 2.5″ pieces. A total of fifteen 2.5″ Dresden fans will be used.

2. Make 3 more Dresden fans, one of each color, from the leftover strip by trimming it to 2″. There will be fifteen 2″ Dresden fans in total, once more.

3. Sew across the top after folding each Dresden fan in half longitudinally, right sides together.

4. Each fan’s tip should be trimmed. This will create a sharp point and minimize bulk.

5. Press as you turn the sharp edges right-side-out. Ensure that the seam lines are aligned in the center of the back. This step will make sure the point is even and not lopsided.

6. For each size, group the fans into three sets of five. Affix the fans with sewing. Each size will come in three pairs.

7. Put the cube together as follows:

The center will contain the cube’s top. Incorporate the Dresden fans into the four corners. Ideally, the 2.5″ and 2″ fans would be grouped together. They are placed on the cube’s opposing corners.

8. Keep the 2.5″ and 2″ Dresden fans separate. With the aid of pins and a matching thread, stitch around the fans. Closely stitch near the fans to conceal the threads.

9. Next, embellish each Dresden fan set’s unfinished side with ric rac.

10. Due to its flexibility, ric-rac can be readily bent to fit the curve. Follow the curve with caution and comfort. Remove any extra ric rac.

11. You can add pockets to store small objects. The 2.5″ x 3.5″ square is folded in half lengthwise and pressed. Before attaching the pouch to the side, topstitch across the top (one 2.5″ side).

12. The pocket’s bottom should be positioned 1/2″ from the edge and 3/4″ from the top. Backstitch each corner to increase protection.

13. Reposition the cube into position. Place the pockets opposite one another. The most crucial step in attaching the sides is to begin and end each side 1/4″ from the border. To keep the sides in place, backstitch each time you start and halt. You will have a difficult time getting the corners to be square if you do not allow a 1/4″ allowance.

14. Sew the top’s two opposing edges together. Next, stitch the cube’s other two edges in place. Start and halt 14″ from each edge as before. The four factions have all been united. It’s time to sew the cube.

15. Fold the cube in half by diagonally dividing the rectangle in the middle. One 1/2″ from the bottom of each edge, begin sewing. To keep the cube in place, backstitch each time you start and halt.

16. The 1/4″ sections that weren’t sewn together will fold naturally, and you can quickly stitch them in position.

17. When the cube is turned right sides out, the corner will lay flat because the stitches create a 90 degree angle. Sew up the final two sides by repeating the procedure described above.

18. To lessen the bulk, it is beneficial to clip the edges. Take caution not to remove too much.

19. Insert the polystyrene cube inside the cube cover after turning it right sides out. To make the stitches straight, wiggle the item around.

20. The lid should completely enclose the cube. Attach the flaps with glue to the cube’s base. Your cube has now completed the stitching process.

Opmerking: The cube pincushion has a lot of uses. The Dresden style is not the only option available to you. As long as the top and side dimensions are the same, any design will work. You could easily make a cube cover out of 5 different fabrics.
