Sewing instructions

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

Supplies

  • Drapey fabric (satin, viscose)
  • Lining fabric
  • Matching thread and the right needle
  1. Prewash and press your fabric before cutting so it will not shrink after sewing.
  2. Print the pattern at 100%, check the test square and cut the pieces following the cutting list. Transfer notches, darts and button marks.
  3. Sew two rows of long stitches and gather to fit the piece it joins.
  4. Assemble the lining like the shell, attach it to the facings and bag it at the hem, leaving an opening to turn.
  5. Make the straps (turned fabric tubes), adjust the length during a try-on and sew them in place.
  6. Sew the side seams right sides together and press open or finish the allowances.
  7. Hem: double-fold to the inside, press and topstitch or blind stitch.
