I spent a while this week figuring out how to sew a placket and fly- there are guides out there but I didn't find many of them helpful, so I am putting together a comprehensive tutorial about how to sew it all together.
Week 2. Cutting out.
Last week I was able to complete my pattern cutting in three hours, so all my pieces were ready for me to start sewing together my first toile in calico.
Pieces to cut:-
CF Leg- cut 2
CB Leg- cut 2
Waistband- Cut 2 on fold and Cut 1 interfacing on fold
Fly Guard- Cut 1 on fold and cut 1 interfacing on fold
Placket- Cut 2 and cut 1 interfacing
Pocket Bag- Cut 2
Pocket Facing- cut 2
Pocket Decoration- Cut 4
Preparation
1. Fuse interfacing peices together:
- Waistband
-fly
- placket
2. overlock CFs, CBs, Fly, Placket, pocket bag, pocket facing.
Next week I will start sewing everything together.
