CUTTING STEP

Firstly I fold my fabric into four then I measure 40” for the sket part then the hip is 12” folded + sewing allowance then I measure 10” for the waistline, the slit length is 18” from the waistline .

After cutting the sket part I folded my fabric into four again the I measure 16” which is the half length then I took out 5” from the half length has the shoulder is joining the half length then I measure 4” from the center then create a curve for the breast curve , then I place the front on the fabric to get the back . After cutting both the upper bodice and the sket part 🧵I folded material to cut out the sleeve .

I measure 20” for the sleeve length the 6” for the width then I measure 6” for the flare to join the sleeve after cutting I took them to my sewing machine to 🪡 sew 🧵
