Burda Style For people who sew

Voila!! A beautiful mitered corner!! Give your mitered corner another final press with the iron and admire your work. Continuing on in your construction, you will most likely top-stitch or hand blind hem the mitered corner to complete it for a ready-to-wear garment

  For a tutorial on mitred trim around a square neckline try refugee crafters blog. She has a video tutorial as part of the instructions for the Rae shirt.

  That is a great explanation, especially when you have to do pockets, most pattern instructions are not a clear as yours, I like the neat pix, and concise to the point explanation and examples to help clarify how to achieve this! Thank you and well done

  Slick, really slick. I actually thought the back side would create a very unique looking design detail also. Pressed crisply it would be sharp. Thank you. Easy to follow pics and directions. I’m going to give that mini iron a look also. Perfect for going to class.

  A wonderful technique…beautifully illustrated and explained. Taking the time to master the mitered corner will elevate your sewing to a new level. Instead of, “Did you make that?”, said with poorly masked superiority, admirers will say “Wow!…you really made that?!”

  Who doesn’t enjoy a well deserved compliment from time to time? Using this skill to elevate the quality and beauty of your projects will keep those compliments rolling in.
