Sewing instructions

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

Supplies

  • Woven fabric (cotton, linen, poplin…)
  • 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 the outseams, then the inseams of each leg.
  4. Put one leg inside the other, right sides together, and sew the crotch seam in one go, matching the inseams.
  5. Hem the wrap edges and sew on the waist ties.
  6. Make the ties (turned tubes or folded strips), sew them in place and test the fit.
  7. Hem: double-fold to the inside, press and topstitch or blind stitch.
