Burda Style For people who sew
Step 1
Before getting to ahead of ourselves, be sure to first measure yourself and choose the right size since some pattern markings are specific for sizes, especially darts! A dart is used to shape a flat piece of fabric to fit bust, waist, hip or elbow curves. Single-point darts are wide at one end and pointed at the other, and shaped darts have a point at both ends and are wide in the middle. The single-point dart is illustrated above. Note that for a bigger size, the dart apex is moved, and the dart intake is greater.
