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 DIANA WRAP SHEATH DRESS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Diana dress is actually a simple one\nand even beginners can make it!<\/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>Fusible interfacing<\/li><li>Button<\/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. If you want\nto use stretch fabric, go down one size for better fit. Opt for soft flowy\nfabric for a romantic look, solid color or fun prints, each will create a\nunique 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 is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Diana-wrap-dress-2-1024x702.png\" alt=\"Diana wrap dress pdf sewing pattern\" class=\"wp-image-7581\" width=\"648\" height=\"444\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Diana-wrap-dress-2-1024x702.png 1024w, https:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Diana-wrap-dress-2-200x137.png 200w, https:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Diana-wrap-dress-2-500x343.png 500w, https:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Diana-wrap-dress-2-300x206.png 300w, https:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Diana-wrap-dress-2-768x527.png 768w, https:\/\/tianascloset.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Diana-wrap-dress-2.png 1260w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 648px) 100vw, 648px\" \/><\/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 allowance,\nand it varies from point to point. For example, the side seam allowance is\nabout 1\/2 inch (1.2cm), and seam allowance at hemline is 1 inch (2.5cm). This\nis the reason why I do not remove the sewing lines from the pattern. Please use\nit as a guide to know how much seam allowance you need to give 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>Front Dress \u2013 2 pieces<\/li><li>Back Dress \u2013 1 piece on fold<\/li><li>Front facing \u2013 2 pieces main fabric + 2 pieces fusible interfacing<\/li><li>Back facing \u2013 1 piece main fabric + 1 piece fusible interfacing<\/li><li>Sleeve \u2013 2 pieces<\/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 front\nfacing and back facing pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Sew the bust darts and waist darts of\nthe front dress and back dress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. Place the right Front Facing and Back\nFacing pieces right side facing, pin and sew the shoulder seam. Repeat with the\nleft Front Facing and Back Facing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5. Place the right Front Dress and Back\nDress pieces right side facing, pin and sew the shoulder seam. Repeat with the\nleft Front Dress and Back Dress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>6. Place the joined facing piece and the\njoined dress right side facing. Match the notch, pin and sew the neckline and\nfront opening of the dress. Clip the curves and press the seam allowance toward\nthe facing. Top stitch on to the facing to keep the facing from turning out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>7. Sew the seam of the sleeve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>8. Place the sleeve and the dress right\nside facing at the armhole. Match the notches, pin and sew to join the sleeve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>9. Hem the sleeves and the skirt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>10. Make buttonhole using the buttonhole\nfeature of your home sewing machine (or by hand). Attach button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All done!
