preparing to SEW.

Once all the amendments on my patterns from the toile fitting had been changed I was now ready to cut out. It was very important to make sure all the grain lines were parallel and that anything that was cut to fold, was on the fold.  Anything that was blocked fused I had to ensure that I drew ( in chalk ) 2cm around the pattern.  Once I had cut out, I had to block fused the appropriate pieces and part fused the back pieces. The pieces that were block fused I then had to put the pattern back on and cut out neatly REMEMBERING ALL NOTCHES. Then it was time for the tapes which went around the arm holes, shoulder seams and roll line.
