The front facing of a shirt or jacket can be a totally separate pattern piece or an extension of the center front. If it is an extension of the center front, it is important to know which is the true Center Front line and which is the Facing Fold line. There is also usually a topstitching line that will be indicated, used to keep the facing down. Also be careful to look for FOLD lines on any other pieces. They can be indicated on cuffs, armhole facings, bindings, etc.
