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

SEAM ALLOWANCES: 1.5 cm for the hem, 1 cm for other seams.

 

ATTENTION! Before sewing, print paper patterns and lays 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:

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.
