Cutter's Must

If the patterns have a double contour, they include seam allowances. If the contour is single, the patterns do not include seam allowances. Seam allowances: all seams 1 cm. Hem allowance - 3 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).

- Back – 2 pieces
- Right Front – 1 piece
- Left Front – 1 piece
- Right Front Center Facing – 1 piece
- Left Front Center Facing – 1 piece
- Back Neckline Facing – 1 piece
- Longer Belt – 1 piece
- Shorter Belt – 1 piece

Sewing Instructions

When stitching pieces, pay attention to the notches - they must match! Note: markings on patterns are made on the right side!

Stitch darts on back and front pieces. Press waist and shoulder dart allowances towards the center, bust darts upwards.
Stitch the center back seam, press allowances to the left side and overlock.
Stitch shoulder seams. Overlock allowances and press towards the back.
Fold the Longer Belt and Shorter Belt lengthwise in half, right sides together, and stitch the long and short edges; trim the allowances at the corners. Turn the belts right side out and press.
