Cutting / Preparation
Choose your size and copy the pattern onto pattern tracing paper. Tissue paper
for copying patterns can be found in fabric and notions stores.
Place the pattern pieces onto the fabric, the marked sides showing up. Consider
the cutting plan below.
( 1 ) Neaten the side edges of the skirt and the bodice pieces with a
zigzag-stitch. Do this to the edges of the shoulders as well.
Cut all pieces!
Please Note: A sewing allowance of has already been included into the pattern!
Unless otherwise noted the sewing allowance measures 1cm. A seam allowance is
marked in the pattern.
Copy all marks from the pattern pieces to the left side of the fabric pieces using
dressmaker’s carbon and a tracing wheel. Baste in marks for pockets, for example,
to make them visible on the right side of the fabric.
Cutting Plan Sewing Pattern Tanja
