Description

Please Note: The paper pattern does not come with printed instructions. To access the instructions, kindly utilize the QR code provided on the pattern sheets to download the PDF file.
Recommended Fabric
Natural or artificial silk, dress-weight viscose, crepe back satin, challis.
Choose dress-weight fabrics with the following properties:
- Medium-weight, pliable, soft, non-stretch or low-stretch, opaque;
- The fibre content can include natural fibres (silk), artificial fibres (viscose), blends (silk + polyester, polyester + viscose, etc.), and synthetics (polyester, polyester + elastane);
ATTENTION: Stretchy knit materials (jersey fabrics) or lightweight sheer fabrics (chiffon, organza, stretch lace) are NOT recommended.
Vikisews suggests cutting facings from the same fabric as the garment for a bias-cut design. This ensures fabric consistency and prevents deformation due to subtle material variations.
Notions
Bias fusible stay tape, 1.2 - 1.6m (1 1/4 – 1 3/4 yd)
Matching thread
