![]() ![]() Choose your fabrics and sort them with your pattern bundles. Sort the different sections so you have all of each kind in a single bundle. Rough cut around them, and fold on all lines except for the outlines. Photocopy or print in actual size (please set printer accordingly): When done with your sections, press and trim all of them, count that you have the correct number of them and put them back in their respective zip-lock bags before starting the next section.Then do all the number 3 pieces, press, then all number 4 pieces etc. sew all number 1 and number 2 pieces, press them all. Then piece the rest of the sections in a production line manner – ie.Take one section and piece it completely so you can see that you have all the pieces in the right place.Store each section’s pattern pieces and fabric in a zip lock bag, so they don’t get mixed up with other sections. ![]() Cut the fabric for each section, sub-cut them into the pieces as in the table (above) and sort them with your stacks of pattern pieces.Copy all your paper pattern pieces, roughly cut around them and sort them into separate stacks. ![]() We encourage you to work in the following order: You need to iron after each seam you are sewing, so having your ironing station next to you, will save you having to get up all the time. Your ironing station could consist of a wool pressing mat (or a folded towel with a cotton cover) and an iron (or even a mini travel size iron). Creating a logical layout like this will make your sewing easier and more enjoyable. Set up your workspace so your sewing machine is in the centre, your piles of ready-cut fabric pieces and corresponding paper templates to your left, and an ironing station to your right.
