Many thanks, it is really interesting! I want to take for the panel a medium weight darkblue cotton and for the other pieces a lightweight cotton with flowers. I don't have enough fabric of this but I will find a solution for that. I am looking forward the next video.

Hello Heike, that sounds like a lovely combination.

Charlotta I loved seeing your process for drafting the pattern. I think it will be a great zero waste pattern with the right pattern placement. On your blouse did they use a pre purchased embroidered trim for the neck edges or was the embroidery added after the blouse was constructed?

[@charlotta_patterncuttingschool]

Hi Natalia, thanks! I think it’s done by piece work. The neck facings look like they’re embroidered separately, but the embroidery connecting the pieces has to be done during the final construction

Hi. I've gotten myself into a muddle. You were talking about adding 10 cm (X 2 = 20 cm) to one if the measurements. Where was this added again?

[@charlotta_patterncuttingschool]

Hello, no worries, it goes quite fast. That’s for the bodice width. So take your bust measurement and add about 10cm minimum per front/back of you don’t want the full double width
