How to sew a custom bottle cover



Namaste!

This is the supporting blog post for our second sewing project video tutorial on our new youtube channel... How to sew a custom bottle cover. We looked at primarily two sources while coming up with this one:
The dimensions for fabric for one bottle cover are as follows:

  • One rectangle of main fabric
    • Width = largest cirumference on the bottle + 1.5 in (4cm)
    • Length = Height of bottle - 1in (2.5cm))
  • One rectangle from inner fabric with the same dimensions as above
  • One circle outer fabric drawn by tracing 0.5in (1cm) out of the actual largest circumference on the bottle
  • One circle inner fabric with the same dimension as above
  • (Optional) One rectangle of fusible fleece or interfacing with 0.5in (1cm) less all around dimensions of the fabric rectangles we cut before
  • (Optional) One circle of fusible fleece or interfacing with the same circumference as the largest circumference on our bottle
  • For longer strap 
    • For a kid - a rectangle each from inner and outer fabrics with width = 2.5in (6.5cm) and length 33in (84cm)
    • For an adult - a rectangle each from inner and outer fabric with width = 2.5in (6.5cm) and length 58in (147cm) or desired length
    • (Optional) - a rectangle of fusible fleece or interfacing with width = 1.5in (4cm) and length equal to fabric strap
  • For shorter strap 
    • For a kid - a rectangle each from inner and outer fabrics with width = 2.5in (6.5cm) and length 10in (25cm)
    • For an adult - a rectangle each from inner and outer fabric with width = 2.5in (6.5cm) and length 12in (30.5cm) or desired length
    • (Optional) - a rectangle of fusible fleece or interfacing with width = 1.5in (4cm) and length equal to fabric strap
