I have included a first page with many details about sizing and\nprinting, so please first read the first page and make sure you know what size\nyou need! If you still do not know how to print a layered PDF, please check for\nthe instruction <a href=\"https:\/\/tianascloset.com\/index.php\/how-to-print-tianas-closet-patterns\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can print this using your home\nprinter and A4\/Letter paper. I calculated the printing area so that you will be\nable to use either type of paper to print the pattern out perfectly. Always\nprint the first page first and check with the test square if you are printing\nat the right scale before you print out the whole pattern \u2013 avoid waste of ink\nand waste of paper, save the earth!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some PC may print smaller than actual\nsize even when you choose 100% scale \u2013 I don\u2019t know why this problem exist, but\nmy HP laptop cannot print true to size. I have to scale up to 103% to get the\nright size. You may need to check with your PC to see if it prints true to\nsize, if not, scale up a bit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>HOW TO SEW THE GINA 3 TIER FLARED SKIRT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Anita skirt will be a bit tricky to\nsew \u2013 especially for beginners who are not used to sewing invisible zippers \u2013\nbut it will worth the effort!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>You will need<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Fabric of your\nchoice <\/li><li>Some interfacing<\/li><li>Invisible zipper<\/li><li>Scissors, pencil or\nfabric marker, ruler, pins<\/li><li>Sewing machine or\nneedle and thread<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>What fabric can be used for this project?\nAlthough it depends on your choice, I recommend using woven fabric. Opt for\nsoft flowy fabric for a romantic look, or choose thicker, heavier fabric for\nmore voluminous look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How much fabric do you need for this piece\nof garment? You may need to check how much fabric you need before buying. It\nwill depend on the selected pattern size, the width, and design of the fabric\nyou plan to use. Just to be sure, print all the paper patterns and lay them out\nat the width of fabric you plan to use (usually from 90 to 150 centimeters or\n35 to 60 inches). Measure how much fabric you will need. Don\u2019t forget to\naccount for pieces that need to be cut multiple times and pieces that are cut\non the fold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cutting instruction:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After printing out and taping all the\npattern pages together, you will get something similar to this image:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Anita-3-tier-flared-skirt-3.png\" alt=\"Anita 3 tier flared skirt\" class=\"wp-image-7526\" width=\"586\" height=\"469\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Anita-3-tier-flared-skirt-3.png 800w, https:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Anita-3-tier-flared-skirt-3-200x160.png 200w, https:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Anita-3-tier-flared-skirt-3-500x401.png 500w, https:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Anita-3-tier-flared-skirt-3-300x240.png 300w, https:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Anita-3-tier-flared-skirt-3-768x615.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 586px) 100vw, 586px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>You will see that there are 2 sets of\nlines on each pattern size. The inner lines are sewing line (and you sew along\nthese lines), and the outer lines are cutting lines (you cut the fabric along\nthese lines, remember the folding lines where you have to fold the fabric\nbefore cutting). The distance between sewing line and cutting line is seam\nallowance, and it varies from point to point. For example, the side seam\nallowance is about 1\/2 inch (1.2cm), and seam allowance at hemline is 1 inch\n(2.5cm). This is the reason why I do not remove the sewing lines from the\npattern. Please use it as a guide to know how much seam allowance you need to\ngive at each seam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fabric will be cut into following pieces:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Top Front: 1 pc \u2013\ncut on fold (make sure to fold the fabric before cutting)<\/li><li>Top Back: 2 pcs <\/li><li>Middle Skirt: 2 pcs\n(1 for front and 1 for back)<\/li><li>Lower Skirt: 2 pcs\n(1 for front and 1 for back)<\/li><li>Front Waistband: 2\npc main fabric + 1 pc fusible interfacing<\/li><li>Back Waistband: 4\npcs main fabric + 2 pcs fusible interfacing<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure to mark all notches and other\ndesign features such as pleats etc. from the pattern piece onto your fabric.\nWhen sewing the garment, pay attention to notches, they must match up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sewing instruction:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Serge the fabric to prevent fraying.\nIf you use non fraying fabric (like fleece or knitted fabric), you can skip\nthis step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Stitch 2 parallel lines along the top\nedge of the Lower Skirt Piece, pull to gather the fabric until it matches the\nlength of the Middle Skirt Piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Place the gathered Lower Skirt Piece\nand the Middle Skirt Piece right side facing (remember to distribute the fabric\nevenly), pin and sew to join the pieces. Repeat with the other pair of Lower\nand Middle Skirt piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. Repeat step 2 and 3 with the Middle\nSkirt Piece and the Top Front Skirt Piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5. Apply fusible interfacing to the\nWaistband pieces. Place two pieces of the Front Waistband right side facing,\npin and sew. Repeat with the Back Waistband pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>6. Pin the waistband piece with fusible\ninterfacing and the front piece right side facing, pin and sew the waistband to\nthe front skirt to get the finished front skirt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>7. Pin the waistband piece with fusible\ninterfacing and the back piece right side facing, pin and sew the waistband to\nthe Top Back Skirt. Repeat with the other side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>8. Apply invisible zipper at the Top Back\nSkirt Pieces. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>9. Gather the top edge of the middle back\nskirt piece, join with the upper back skirt pieces to make the finished back\nskirt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>10. Place the finished front skirt and\nback skirt right side facing, sew the side seams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>11. Finish the waistband by using stitch\nin the ditch technique or by hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>12.
