Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin, ensure you have the correct fabric yardage and notions as specified on the pattern envelope, as these vary by size. Before cutting your final fabric, it is highly recommended to create a mockup or 'muslin' to test the fit across your bust and waist measurements. Always press your fabric before starting to ensure accurate cutting. When cleaning the finished garment, refer to the care instructions associated with the specific fabric you selected to sew the project.
