SEAM AND HEMLINE ALLOWANCES are included on an average:
1” (3 cm) hemline, 5/8” (1.5 cm) for all edges and stitches. Using BURDA copying paper, transfer the lines and symbols of the pattern onto the wrong side of the fabric. Instructions can be found in the packaging.
INTERFACING
Press the interfacing piece according to the cutting diagram onto the wrong side of the fabric.
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.
NOTE FOR STRETCHY FABRICS:
Use a special needle for stretchy fabrics for sewing. A narrow zigzag stitch keeps the seams elastic and prevents tearing (stitch width 1/2-1 mm, stitch length 2.5 mm) or use a special elastic stitch (see the instructions of your sewing machine). Make sure the thread tension is adjusted appropriately.
