Sewing instructions

General steps to sew this garment. Seam allowance is 1 cm (3/8") unless stated otherwise.

This pattern is a block, not a finished garment. Cut it in muslin or an old sheet with no extra allowance.
Baste the toile, try it on and mark adjustments with a pencil: ease, darts, length and shoulder slope.
