Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting, identify your size based on body measurements rather than store-bought clothing sizes. To set up, transfer all markings and notches to your fabric using a tailor's chalk or a tracing wheel. This pattern is compatible with most standard household sewing machines and requires standard sewing notions such as thread, zippers, and interfacing as specified in the pattern guide. For care, keep the pattern tissue stored flat in a dry, cool environment to prevent tearing or yellowing over time. If you need to reuse the pattern, consider tracing it onto pattern-making paper first to preserve the original tissue.
