So I’m finally taking the plunge and making my first item from the site, however, the first pattern I chose (Coffee Date Dress) requires seam allowance to be added. I’m fumbling my way through with a compass and ruler, but need to know if I need to add seam allowance to the darts – because I’m struggling to do so. Its been such a popular dress I’m sure someone can help!

No, there is no need to add seam allowances to the darts. Don’t cut them, leave the fabric wedge in the darts and sew them on the given line.
