IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Before cutting your fabric, print and lay out the paper patterns according to your fabric width (90–150 cm) to determine yardage. Include paired and symmetrical pieces.
When working with heavier fabrics or faux-fur, use appropriate tailoring techniques such as top-stitching and pressing for crisp edges.
