Burda Style For people who sew

SEAM AND HEMLINE ALLOWANCES are included on an average:
5/8” (1.5 cm) for all edges and stitches. Using BURDA copying paper, transfer the lines and signs of the pattern onto the wrong side of the fabric. Instructions can be found in the packaging.

Sewing
While sewing, the right sides of the fabric are facing.
Transfer all lines of the pattern onto the right side of the fabric using basting stitches.

Tips for jersey fabric: To keep the elasticity of the fabric, stitch seams with an elastic stitch or with a level opposed zigzag stitch. Use a ball point needle in your sewing machine for fine mesh fabrics; you will achieve a picture perfect looking stitch with no stitches left out. Neaten allowances, if necessary, using an over-lock sewing machine.

Interfacing
Cut interfacing according to the drawing and press onto the left fabric side
