How to turn a strict jacket into a biker jacket? How to stitch the corners on the product carefully? Here are the recommendations of the German edition ...

Jacket 102

Draper, footer and other “fleece” fabrics should be dry cleaned. If you planted a stain on such a fabric, immediately try to brush it with a brush or a rag of the same brushed fabric. In no case do not wash such fabrics in the machine - they, as a rule, give strong shrinkage. If you still decide to wash the product yourself, wash only in warm water (not higher than 30 degrees).

Jacket 110

If you put on a T-shirt or blouse with a boat neckline under this jacket, it will look like a biker jacket. So easy to change your image!
Jacket 109 A

To make your product look neatly stitched, it is desirable that the cut corners do not crumble when sewing. To do this, lubricate them with a small amount of nail polish.
Dress 106

You can sew a model without a pelerine and get a corsage evening dress.
Dress 124

A tied scarf distracts attention from problem areas. An ideal model for owners of a very high bust.

Skirt 115

There are no wrinkles on the side of the skirt, so it will not “plump”.
And some more useful tips from the Russian edition:
Dress 108V: wing sleeves and wedge-shaped inserts at the neck are a suitable part for a figure with narrow shoulders. If you have wide shoulders, sew this model from soft and plastic fabrics.
Blouse 105 A: a multifunctional model, suitable for future mothers, and you can also extend the pattern and sew a dress in the style of the sixties, just do not take hard fabrics for the dress so that the oncoming fold does not puff.
Skirt 112: the belt on the pattern is easy to change from knotted to regular, with buttons. Thanks to the figured coquette, the skirt will emphasize narrow hips and a thin waist.
Jacket 101: the empire silhouette hides the extra couple of kilograms at the waist, but the lush basque will make you taller.
Coat 103: this style is ideal for women with a figure of type X, or an hourglass. But for women with a figure of type O or "rectangle" it is better to refuse it.
Cape 116: tall women fit any fabric. But for those who have medium or lower than average height, it is better to take a plain fabric for sewing, fabric in a thin diagonal or vertical strip or with the corresponding very narrow rapport, as well as with the print “vertical color blocks”.
Blouse 123: if the lower bar emphasizes your problem area, discard it.
Sheath / Column 127: sewn from elegant - or black! - a jersey and complemented by a narrow strap with rhinestones or under the metal, this model will successfully fulfill the role of a cocktail dress.
Dresses 124 and 126: on this model, armholes should very accurately “snap into place”, so make sure that your measurements are ideally suited to the pattern.
Cardigan 125: simple in sewing and very effective "blouse", sitting favorably on a large figure. You can decorate it in different ways and sew it from different materials, including a lightweight jersey for the summer, and as a result get several completely different things for one pattern.
