SSC - Step by Step Guide Part 3

This is Part 3 of the step by step guide in making a toy SSC.



 Step 4 :  Constructing the Waist Band

1) Place the waist band with the righ side facing up.
2) Place a piece of webbing at the left side of the waist band piece.  The long end should be on the fabric while the short end should be outside.  Hold the webbing in place with pins.
3) Thread a piece of webbing over the female side of a buckle.  Place it at the right side of the waist band.  The buckle should be on the fabric while the open end of the webbing should be out side. 
3) Fold the waist band in half.  The wrong side of the fabric should be facing up.
4) Sew along the side of the waist band piece.
5) Turn the waist band inside out.  The right side of the fabric should now be facing out.
6) Sew an X box over the webbing that is inside the waistband.  (Repeat at least 3 times if you are sewing a real SSC).
7) Fill the waist band with polyfiber.  If you are sewing a real SSC, fill it with something sturdy, i.e. PU foam.
