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\n\n<p><strong>HOW TO SEW THE THALIA ASYMMETRICAL HEM BLOUSE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Thalia asymmetrical hem blouse can be\none of the simplest project that you start! Even a novice can make a perfect\ngarment with this pattern.<\/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>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, solid color or fun prints, each will\ncreate a unique style.<\/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<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\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"709\" src=\"http:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Thalia-asymmetrical-hem-blouse-4-1024x709.png\" alt=\"Thalia blouse - free sewing pattern\" class=\"wp-image-7534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Thalia-asymmetrical-hem-blouse-4-1024x709.png 1024w, https:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Thalia-asymmetrical-hem-blouse-4-200x139.png 200w, https:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Thalia-asymmetrical-hem-blouse-4-500x346.png 500w, https:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Thalia-asymmetrical-hem-blouse-4-300x208.png 300w, https:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Thalia-asymmetrical-hem-blouse-4-768x532.png 768w, https:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Thalia-asymmetrical-hem-blouse-4.png 1292w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/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>Main piece \u2013 cut 2<\/li><li>Interfacing \u2013 cut 2 main fabric + 2 fusible interfacing<\/li><li>Or you can just skip the facing and use bias binding for the neckline and armholes.<\/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. Apply fusible interfacing to the\nfacing pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Place main pieces right side facing,\npin and sew to join the shoulder seams. Repeat this step with the facing\npieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. Place the facing and main blouse right\nside facing. Pin along the neckline so that all the notches and seam lines\nmatch. Sew along the neckline. Flip the facing piece and top stitch the seam\nallowance toward the facing piece. Clip the seam allowance for smoother curve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5. (Now the trickier part) Lay the\ngarment flat, facing side up, and tightly roll right side of the garment\ntowards the opposite edge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then take your left\/unrolled facing\narmhole edge and wrap it around the roll so that it meets the left armhole edge\nof the garment. Basically, you are enclosing the right side of the garment\nbetween the left facing and left garment fabrics like a burrito.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Align the raw edges of your left armhole\nand pin the two right sides together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sew the armhole seam right sides together\nat your usual seam allowance taking care not to catch the rolled up fabric.\nTrim and clip your seam allowance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gently pull the rolled garment right side\nout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>You can just skip this step (and step 2-3-4) by using bias binding for the neckline and the armhole!!!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>6. Pin and sew the sides seams in one\npass from the bottom hem of your garment to the edge of your facing at your\nusual seam allowance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>7.
