Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin, ensure you have a clear, flat surface for cutting fabric. Start by identifying your size (6-14) on the pattern sheet and either trace the size or cut directly if you are certain of your measurements. Keep your fabric properly pinned to the pattern pieces to prevent shifting during the cutting process. Regarding care, once the garment is completed, always follow the care instructions specific to the fabric you selected rather than the pattern itself. Store your paper pattern pieces flat or in a folder to prevent tearing for future use.
