Copy Paper with DinA4 Print: The pattern pieces are printed with a narrow border onto 20 pages. Wait until all pages are printed. Arrange the pages as depicted in the page with instructions on how to put the pages together. Cut the pages at the upper right edge along the narrow border. Start with the lower left page and glue the pieces together at the border lines. Choose the size of the pattern according to the Burda measurement chart. The sizes for dresses, Blouses, Jackets and Coats are determined by the bust measurement, the sizes for pants and skirts are determined by the hip measurement. Adjust, if necessary, if your measurements differ from the Burda measurement chart. Cut the pattern pieces for your size.
Cutting out Fabric Fold (-----) means: This is the middle of a pattern pieces, not an edge or a seam. The piece is cut twice the size of the pattern; the fabric fold is the middle axis of the piece. The pattern pieces with interrupted outlines are placed onto the fabric with the printed side facing down. The cutting plans show how to arrange the pattern pieces on the fabric.
If fabric is not folded, pin the pattern pieces on the right side. If fabric is folded, the right side is facing inside. Pin pattern pieces onto the wrong side. Cut the pieces that are placed over the selvage in the copy paper last, with the fabric not folded.
Cutting the Fringes: Lengthen the strips for the fringes; in other words, draw part 2 onto the fabric until they add up to the total length for your size. Cut pieces.
Seam and Hem Allowances are included in the pattern: 1.5 cm (5/8 inch) for all edges and seams.
With Burda copy paper, transfer the lines and marking on the pieces onto the wrong side of the fabric. Instructions are included in the package.
