Cutter's Must

If the patterns have a double contour, seam allowances are included. If the contour is single, seam allowances are not included. Seam allowances: all seams 1 cm; hem allowance for the bottom of the garment – 1.5 cm; hem allowance for the sleeve bottom – 1.2 cm. Attention! First, print out the paper patterns and lay them out on the fabric width (fabric width can be from 90cm to 150cm) to determine how much material you will need (don't forget to account for paired and symmetrical pieces).

From main fabric:
- Back — 1 piece on fold
- Front - 1 piece on fold
From lace fabric:
- Sleeve — 2 pieces
