Preperation

There are certain things you have to prepare before you even cut.


-Pre shrink fabric by doing this will ensure the pattern pieces wont shrink when the fusing is put on. ( this will also get any creases out so the fabric is flat for when the cutting out process begins)

The fabric pressed well, it didn't pick up creases or shrink much.

-There was limited space in the work shop so cutting the fabric out was not in the best conditions, as the fabric was hanging off the edge of the table.

-Cutting out was good, however I did forget to mark the grain line on a couple of the pieces which I had to resolve at a later stage.

-I had to block fuse all of the pieces par my sleeves this is because the fabric is a medium light weight and frayed.




-The fusing tape went on well.
