1. Work With The Front Piece, Side Piece, Front Sleeve, And Sleeve Facing.

  • Transfer all the lines from the sample to the paper pattern. Do it by measuring on the muslin and track the lines on to the pattern. The new lines are red, as illustrated below.

  • The lines stop at the bust notch. Make a check measurement on the two lines; they have to be the same length.

NB! Remove the same at the sleeve as on the front piece (not the side piece), so the sleeve still fits.
