Step 5Cutting out
5.1. Cut out the pattern pieces. It does not include seam allowances, so if you trace the pattern onto the fabric, you will sew exactly on the drawn line.
5.2. Place the pattern over the fabric.
Measure from the straight lateral edge, to the pattern's straight grain line.
The pattern piece is correctly placed when there is the same distance from the fabric edge to the straight grain line, at both ends of the line.
Remember to leave at least 1.5cm (1/2inch) around each pattern piece for the seam allowances.
Having an even seam allowance all over eliminates the need of tracing over the fabric.
5.3. Pin down the pattern pieces to the fabric.
5.4. Cut out the fabric pieces (one for each pattern piece).
