Sewing a bathrobe is very simple. After pulling out the cut and placing all the parts on the fabric , we take the scissors in hand and hooray for the first cut. After cutting out all the parts, we start sewing them together. First, we sew the shoulder straps, sew the sleeves into the armholes and sew the sleeve seam together with the side seams.

If you've decided on a hood, now is the perfect time to sew it on. Sew the muslin parts in the same way and place them face to face on the bathrobe. Sew together, turn and stitch. We bend the edges and stitch in the chosen width.

We have a bathrobe made of muslin with a waffle or terry fabric sewn and hooray for the beach, the pond or the pool.

Ideas for using fabric scraps to improve a bathrobe

Decorative pockets

Add small decorative pockets to the bathrobe, which can be handy for storing small items such as keys or a mobile phone. Use fabric scraps in bold colors or patterns to make the pockets stand out.

Colored hems and edging

Use fabric scraps to create colorful trims and edging around the edges of the robe, sleeves, hood or pockets. This will add a contrasting element to the bathrobe and increase its aesthetic value.

Applications and embroidery

Leftover fabrics can be used to create original applications or embroidery. You can design and create different shapes such as hearts, stars, flowers or animals, which you then sew onto the bathrobe.

Patchwork design
