45” or 60” WIDE
For 45” wide fabric, you will need 2 yards. For 60” wide fabric, you will need 1 1/4 yards. If using a stripe or plaid
fabric, you will need an extra 1/2 to 1 yard of fabric. Below is the layout guide, the left image is 45” and the right 60”.
INTERFACING
You will need 1 yard of interfacing. To have the most accurate fit, cut out the main pieces then lay them on top of the
interfacing and cut from there. By cutting out your interfacing pieces this way, you guarantee they are the same size.
Attach the interfacing to it’s corresponding piece.
GRAIN-LINE
This red arrow indicates your grain-line, which you should align with the grain of your fabric. Don’t know what grain-line
or grain is? Let us explain. When fabric is made it is woven with threads that go in two different directions. Lengthwise,
which spans the cut edges and crosswise, which spans the selvage edges (the selvage is the band of tightly woven
fabric that runs up either side). The lengthwise direction is the grain of your fabric and what you use to line up your
grain-line.
FOLD LINE
This means you line up the edge with the folded edge of your fabric before you cut.
