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 blouse bottom and sleeve – 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 (do not forget to account for paired and symmetrical pieces). When stitching pieces, pay attention to the notches - they must match!

From main fabric:
- Back – 2 pieces
- Front – 2 pieces
- Center Front Facing – 2 pieces
- Sleeve – 2 pieces
- Back Neckline Facing – 1 piece
From fusible interfacing:
- Center Front Facing – 2 pieces
