Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before beginning, identify your target size (7-14) from the pattern sheet and either trace the lines or cut directly on the size-specific markings. Ensure your sewing machine is threaded correctly and you are using a needle size appropriate for your chosen fabric weight (typically universal 70/10 or 80/12). Once the garment is sewn, follow the care instructions specific to the fabric you selected. Store the pattern pieces in a clear, labeled envelope after use to prevent tearing and to keep them organized for future projects.
