Burda Style For people who sew

CUTTING OUT
FOLD (– – – –) means: Cut on the fold, the fold being the center of the pattern piece, but never a cut edge or seam. The piece should be cut double, with the fold line forming the center line. Pattern pieces that are outlined with a broken line in the cutting diagrams are placed face down on the fabric. The cutting diagrams on the pattern sheet show how the pattern pieces should be placed on the fabric.

The cutting diagrams show the placement of the pattern on the fabric.
Fabric I: The bodice will be cut from double layers of fabric using one fabric only. For double layers of fabric, the right sides are facing and the pattern pieces 1 to 4 are pinned to the wrong side. In this way, you automatically cut the pattern pieces 1 to 4 as mirror-image pairs for the dress and the inner dress layer. See cutting diagram.
Fabric II: Pin the asymmetrical skirt panel piece 5 on the right fabric side of a single layer of fabric. The labeled side is facing up. Cut it out.
Fabric II and tulle: Cut the ruffle pieces 6 to 10 from the fabric and the tulle.
