Sewing Instructions

  1. Sew the left side seam below the slit mark for the zipper closure. Press seam allowances open. Press seam allowances along the edges of the slit to the wrong side.
  2. Stitch the zipper so that the teeth are not visible.
  3. Sew the right side seam, also on the FACINGs.
  4. Place the facing on the skirt right sides together and stitch to the upper edge of the skirt along the marked seam line. Trim seam allowances to 0.5 cm width. Turn the facing up and topstitch onto the seam allowances close to the seam. Turn under the ends of the facing. Turn the facing to the wrong side and sew to the zipper tapes and the seam allowances of the side seams.
  5. Finish the lower edge of the skirt with a dense narrow zigzag stitch: press the seam allowance along the edge to the wrong side, from the right side stitch a dense narrow zigzag stitch along the fold, slightly stretching the fold, and then from the wrong side carefully trim the excess seam allowance close to the stitching.
