Step 6Thongs

Thongs
The thongs are simple triangles: a bigger one in front and a small one in the back.

Cut out a little soft cotton jersey for underlining. Serge over the base of the triangle.

Place the front piece wrong side facing down.
Place the back piece over with the tips of the triangles aligned, rights sides facing.
Place the underlining over, align the tips again, wrong side facing up.
Stitch through all 3 layers, at a little distance from the tip of the triangles, so that you create a trapezoid shape.

Turn the underlining towards the front. This will hide the seam under.
Stitch the lateral sides of the front and underlining together to keep them in place when sewing the elastic trim.

Trim the lateral edges with elastic tape, like described for the bra.

Measure another piece of elastic tape so that it fits comfortably just below the waist, and can go over your hips when stretched.

Sew the edges of it to create a round circle.

Place that seam in the middle of the back triangle.

Fold it in two, and pin in place the middle of the fold onto the center front.

Sew the tape just like we did so far, on the top edges of the triangles.

Place ribbon flowers on the corners of the triangles in front.
