Sewing Instructions
- Cut tie and loop details from main fabric. Tie: 4 cm wide, 150 cm long. Loop: 4 cm wide, 4 cm long. Fold lengthwise in half, right side out, and press. Unfold, press side edges towards the center, and fold in half. Stitch 0.1 cm from the edge.
- Place upper BACK PANEL pieces right sides together and stitch the long sides of the rhombus and the upper section, inserting the loop. Turn right side out and press.
- Finish the bias and lower edges of the FLOUNCE with a narrow rolled hem. Stitch the center front seam, inserting the FLOUNCES. Press SEAM ALLOWANCES to the left and serge.
- Stitch the center back seam, press SEAM ALLOWANCES to the left and serge. Attach the upper BACK PANEL to the upper edge of the BACK SKIRT HALF.
- Stitch the side seams, press SEAM ALLOWANCES towards the back and serge.
- Process LINING pieces similarly to main fabric pieces. Place LINING and main garment right sides together and stitch the upper edge. Then, starting 1 cm from the upper seam, stitch the upper edge all around, stopping 1 cm before the upper seam on the other side. Turn the dress right side out and press. Stitch a decorative seam 1 cm from the upper front edge, creating a casing.
- Serge the lower edges of the dress and LINING (separately) with a narrow rolled hem.
- Along the upper edge of the BACK SKIRT HALF, from the side seam to the upper part, stitch using elastic thread. Insert the tie into the casing and loop.
