YOU NEED: middle/high stretchable jersey (natural or mixed), decorative cord.

IF THE PATTERNS HAVE DOUBLE CONTOUR, THE SEAM ALLOWANCE IS PROVIDED,

IF THE PATTERNS HAVE SINGLE CONTOUR, THE SEAM ALLOWANCE IS NOT PROVIDED.

SEAM ALLOWANCES: 1.5 cm for hem/sleeve hems, 1 cm for other seams.

ATTENTION! Before sewing, print paper patterns and lay them out according to the linen width (from 90 to 150 cm) to find out how much material you need (do not forget about double and symmetric details).

WHEN SEWING, BE CAREFUL WITH NOTCHES – THEY MUST BE COINCIDING!

CUTTING:

Fabric:

1. Back part – 1 piece

2. Front part – 2 pieces

3. Sleeve – 2 pieces

Our advice: stitch jersey details with special elastic/zig zag stitches. If you use an overlock, cut seam allowances till 0.6-0.8 cm width. Topstitch hem allowances with double needle to save elasticity.

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Stitch front upper darts. Slash darts’ depths, neaten and press them.

2. Stitch shoulder/side edges of front/back parts. Neaten seams and press them backward. Leave a hole into left seam for a cord.

Make decorative stitch along the hole into left seam.

3. Stitch sleeve seams. Neaten seams and press them sidewise.

4. Stitch sleeves into armholes coinciding notches. Neaten seams and press them.

5. Neaten the hem and sleeve hems as well as neckline edge and front part’s edge. Press edges into wrong side and topstitch.

6. Sew the decorative cord to front part.
