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 for the bottom of the garment and sleeve hem – 2 cm. Attention! First, print out the paper patterns and lay them out on the fabric width (fabric width can range from 90 cm to 150 cm) to determine how much material you will need. When stitching pieces, pay attention to the notches - they must match!

From main fabric:
- Upper Back – 2 pieces on fold (outer and inner)
- Center Back – 1 piece on fold
- Side Back – 2 pieces
- Upper Front – 4 pieces (2 outer, 2 inner)
- Center Front – 2 pieces
