Cutter's Must

If the patterns have a double contour, the patterns include seam allowances. If the contour is single, the patterns do not include seam allowances. Seam allowances: all seams 1 cm. Hem allowance for the jacket bottom, neckline, and front edge – 0 cm. Attention! First of all, 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 (do not forget to account for paired and symmetrical pieces). Note: markings on the patterns are made on the right side of the fabric.

From main fabric:
- Center back piece – 1 piece
- Side back piece – 2 pieces
- Center front piece – 2 pieces
- Side front piece – 2 pieces
- Belt – 2 pieces

Sewing Instructions

When stitching pieces, pay attention to the notches - they must match!

On the back, stitch the princess seams. Press seam allowances open.
On the front, stitch the princess seams, press seam allowances open.
Thread the buckle through the belt piece, fold the belt in half, and attach it to the left side seam. Attach the other of the belt to the right center front piece.
