You need:
middle/high stretchable jersey (natural or mixed) with lycra, end-on and
broadside stretchable; cotton jersey for gusset, elastic braid of 0.7 cm width
for neckline/armholes, elastic braid of 2 cm width for garment hem (band’s
length is equal to length of edge «-» 0.7).
IF THE PATTERNS HAVE DOUBLE CONTOUR, THE SEAM
ALLOWANCE IS PROVIDED,
IF THE PATTERNS HAVE SINGLE CONTOUR, THE SEAM
ALLOWANCE IS NOT PROVIDED.
SEAM ALLOWANCES: 2 cm for
the hem, 1 cm for other seams.
ATTENTION! Before sewing, print paper patterns and lay them out
according to the linen width (from 90 to 150 cm) to find out how much material
you need (do not forget about double and symmetric details).
WHEN SEWING, BE CAREFUL WITH NOTCHES – THEY MUST BE
COINCIDING!
CUTTING:
Fabric:
1. Back part – 1
piece
2. Front part – 1
piece
OUR ADVICE: stitch jersey details with
special elastic/zig zag stitches. If you use an overlock, cut seam allowances
till 0.6-0.8 cm width. Topstitch hem allowances with double needle to save
elasticity.
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Stitch
side/shoulder edges. Neaten seams and press them.
2. Stitch elastic
braid to neckline/armholes. Fold edges under and topstitch with zig zags.
3. Stitch the braid
to garment hem. Fold it into wrong side and topstitch with narrow zig zags.
