Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin, ensure you have a standard sewing machine capable of a straight stitch and a zig-zag stitch for finishing seams. You will need to purchase your fabric, matching thread, and elastic separately based on the yardage requirements listed on the pattern envelope back. When caring for your finished garments, follow the care instructions specific to the fabric you selected. To care for the pattern itself, press the tissue paper with a dry, low-heat iron if it arrives wrinkled, and store it flat or folded neatly in its original envelope to maintain the integrity of the cut lines for future use.
