Dionne’s Draught Excluder 2019 - Part 5

Dionne’s Draught Excluder 2019 - Part 5

This week’s blog will be slightly longer as I found some of the pictures that I meant to put in the last blog but couldn’t find.

Assorted Trimmings











I have been Stuffing the Legs with various bits of Trimmed material. Those that follow my blogs regularly might recognises the material as off cuts from Mademoiselle Marionette’s clothes and accessories.

Sewing Leg End












When I decided that the Leg was sufficiently stuffed I simply Blanket Stitched the last flat part together. I have left about a fingers Width gap without Stuffing.

4 Inch Mark








I Folded the material then measured and Marked 4 Inches. This represented the approximate Length of the Thigh.

Back Thigh











Using the Mark I drew upwards making a Thigh shape. I Pinned the material together to avoid it slipping when I cut it out.

Front Thigh











Although the process for the Front Thigh was the same as the Back this was about a centimetre shorter. The Width was slightly less to keep the proportions correct.

Replica Thighs










To make a pair of Thighs for the other side of the Body I simply Pinned to more material and cut out around them.

Thigh Attached











IMPORTANT
When Attaching the Thigh to the Leg make sure that you have slipped the Leg End into the Thigh Horizontally before you Sew. Otherwise it will be at the wrong angle.
