USE
This is a tissue paper pattern for recreating the styles shown on the instruction sheet. The original pieces are perforated tissue paper and should be handled with care. The instruction has a drawing of the style, cutting guide, piece diagram, material useage chart, the process of construction with some tips.
In order to recreate a style you will need to purchase your material, notions and anything you might need for embellishing. To test the fit before using expensive fabric, purchase muslin & recreate the style in a basic version. It is advisable to make a paper copy when resizing or altering the design.
CARE
- For small tears, use archival tape or a glue stick & tissue paper.
- Store the pattern in its protective sleeve or bag to reduce breakage and further discoloring.
