Different Ways Of Attaching Boning

In the entire career of the sewer, there comes a time when they have to experiment with something out of the box. This is the time when sewer can actually show the skills to the world and with every new project can learn a lot about the sewing. If you have the potential to learn more and more each day, then it won’t take time when you will be known as the expert sewer.

Today we are going to talk about the boning. If you have a best first sewing machine then you can definitely sew the boning into the dress. Boning is the best way to add the support and light-weight feel to the dress. You must have seen the boning in the hats but today we are going to tell you about the three ways in which you can add the boning into the dress and can make it look beautiful.

Apply Casing:

If you will take a closer look at the strapless formal dress then you can see the insertion of boning in it. Rigilene boning can attach in an open way to the fabric without covering it. This kind of boning is made up from the woven nylon and at the time of sewing, you don’t have to cover it up. You can stitch it to the cotton underlining which must be firm enough to adjust the boning into it.

If you will take a closer look at the gowns then you can see how the rigilene boning is attached to the dress in a vertical form, from the top edge to the hip point. This boning supports the body and also provide elegant as well as a light feather-like shape to the dress. If you are sewing a gown or formal wear then the suitable boning for you is Rigilene. It will also give professional look to the dress.

The first method is to apply the boning with the casing. First, stitch the casing and then create a wide channel for the boning to slide inside the fabric. It should not be too wide, it must be narrow enough to make the boning twist inside the fabric for the perfect fitting. Start attaching stitches at the end of the boning to secure it inside the fabric and seal the ends to secure the fabric from damage.

Stitch to Seam Allowance:

Pre-covered boning is one of the most used and casual boning attached in the dress. It’s available in the ¼ inches wide plastic wrapped. This boning is also known as the Featherlite. Pre-covered boning also helps in giving the structure to the body and it helps the fabric in holding it's placed. If you are using the lightweight boning then the recommended fabric is knit or any lightweight fabric.

Another method to sew the boning into the dress is to make the casing and then insert it in the dress. I usually prefer to start the work from the pre-covered boning before you move on to the complicated one. You don’t have to worry if you have the best entry-level sewing machine because you can sew the boning with the help of the entry level machine but just needs to be little focused.

Whether you use pre-cover boning or Rigilene boning, both methods work for this way. You just have to attach the boning to the open edge of the seam. Keep it in the centering of the seam and start stitching from one side to seal it. With many clean stitches, stitch from the second side and you will be done with this method.

The seam is one of the sensitive things you can see in the dress and if you are going to mess with the seam allowance then boning can’t save you either. I prefer to always check the boning and seam roughly by placing the boning on it. Once you are done with this method, you need to master it because you are going to use this one for the professional work in the future.

Directly to the Fabric:

If you are sewing something for the practical purpose or for the casual then you can choose this method or else I don’t recommend this method to the sewers because it’s quite revealing. This doesn’t look professional and once you are going to take orders then you have to apply the boning secretly to the fabric. For the direct attachment, only Rigilene boning should be used.

Rigilene already has a border so you can sew it from both sides and the best situation is to attach it with the flat one as compared the rolled one. It can also be sewn on an angle like to the strapless dresses. You can also secure the strap from both sides with the help of some small fabric if you feel discomfort after stitching it on the fabric.

You may feel little difficulty for the first time when you will attach the boning to the dress. As you are going to proceed further and when you will do experiment with the different boning, you will be comfortable as well as professional in attaching this to the dress. First thing at the time of attaching boning I recommend to check the stitch settings to make it secure and comfortable for you.

Conclusion:

Along with the other sewing tools, you must know the importance of sewing material which can just not simplify the work but it can also enhance the look and elegance of the dress. As a beginner, it must be hard for you to understand the use and adjustment of the boning but with the time you can definitely move on to the experienced title.
