Fabric & Materials
Fabric recommendations: silk dress fabrics made from natural or blended fibers. ALSO NEEDED: elastic thread.
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: bottom hem allowance 1.5 cm, other allowances 1 cm. ATTENTION! FIRST, 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.
- From main fabric:
- Upper part of the dress – 2 pieces
- Lower part of the dress – 2 pieces
Sewing Instructions
WHEN STITCHING PIECES, PAY ATTENTION TO THE NOTCHES - THEY MUST MATCH!
- Attach the upper part of the dress to the lower part. Overcast the seam and press it downwards.
- Stitch the center edges of the front and back. Overcast the allowances and press them to the left side.
- Overcast the upper edge of the back and the sides of the "tail" in one go. Fold the allowances inwards and topstitch.
- Stitch with elastic thread along the upper edge of the back from mark to mark.
- Put on the dress, even out the bottom edge. Overcast, fold to the wrong side and topstitch.
