Fabrics:
Woven fabrics such as linen, linen blends, rayon and other fabrics that tend to shift easily during cutting or “grow” during sewing or wearing can be used. It should be expected to remove bodice width after fitting in some cases.
Woven fabrics such as lightweight twills, sateen, chambrays, and other stable fabrics without very much mechanical stretch can be used. It should be expected that these will feel more fitted and may need some adjustments. Use the 5/8” seam allowance to achieve the best personal fit.
Notions:
- Interfacing for waistband, zipper installation and Y back option.
- 22” invisible zipper (will be shortened for some sizes)
Optional: The shoulder closure for the Y back option will use one of the following: small button and loop, 2 hook and bar sets, OR a frog clasp/decorative hook and eye set.
