Fabric & Materials

Fabric recommendations: well-draping knit fabric with medium stretch, made from natural or blended fibers.

CUTTER'S MUST

IF THE PATTERNS HAVE A DOUBLE CONTOUR, SEAM ALLOWANCES ARE INCLUDED. IF THE CONTOUR IS SINGLE, THE PATTERNS DO NOT INCLUDE SEAM ALLOWANCES. SEAM ALLOWANCES: hem allowance – 1.5 cm; lower edges of front and sleeve ruffles – 0 cm; other seams 0.7 cm. ATTENTION! FIRST, PRINT OUT THE PAPER PATTERNS AND LAY THEM OUT ON THE FABRIC WIDTH (fabric width can be from 90 cm to 150 cm) TO DETERMINE HOW MUCH MATERIAL YOU WILL NEED.

• From main fabric:
  • Back – 2 pieces
  • Front – 2 pieces
  • Collar – 2 pieces
  • Front ruffle – 1 piece
  • Sleeve ruffle – 2 pieces

Tip: Knit fabric pieces are stitched with a special elastic or narrow zigzag stitch. The hem allowance is topstitched with a twin needle or on a coverstitch machine to maintain elasticity. You can also stitch pieces directly on a 3- or 4-thread overlocker.

Sewing Instructions

WHEN STITCHING PIECES, PAY ATTENTION TO THE NOTCHES - THEY MUST MATCH!

1. Stitch the center back seam, press allowances to the left and overcast.
2. Overcast the lower edge of the front ruffle with a narrow rolled hem. Fold the ruffle in half lengthwise, right side out, insert it between the front pieces, and stitch the center front seam. Press allowances to the left and overcast. Lay out the ruffle, align the upper edge of the ruffle with the upper edge of the front, and secure. Along the neckline edge of the front, between the marks, make a basting stitch with loosely tensioned stitches and gather.
3. Stitch the shoulder seams of the back and front. Press allowances towards the back and overcast.
4. Stitch each collar piece into a loop. Place collars right sides together and stitch the upper edge. Turn the finished collar right side out, shape, and press. Attach the collar to the neckline, aligning marks, press allowances, and overcast.
5. Overcast the outer edges of the sleeve ruffles with a narrow rolled hem. Attach the ruffles to the armholes, press allowances, and overcast.
6. Stitch the side seams of the back and front. Press allowances towards the back and overcast.
7. Overcast the lower edge of the garment, press to the wrong side, and topstitch.
