- Fold the 2 Visors and the 2 Sides in 2, following the fold line, right sides together:
- Insert the <disclothed> paris textile label provided in the kit between the two layers of fabric on one of the two sides, more or less in the middle. Be careful to have the "white" side of the label - without the logo, against the edge of the fabric: it is in fact this part that we want to take in the seam, and not the logo. If you have opted for our pattern in pdf format, obviously you do not have a textile label so do the same thing as us, without the label.
- Pin edge to edge:
- Sew each of the 4 pieces thus folded on themselves with a straight stitch, 1 cm from the edge: we adjust the straight stitch of our machine by first doing tests on a scrap. When your settings seem good to you, and only then, start on your work, not forgetting the backstitch, at the beginning and at the end. Cut the excess threads
❓ What is a backstitch? A backstitch is basically like tying a knot when sewing by hand. Backstitching is done every time (with some exceptions) you start and finish a stitch.
❓ How to make a backstitch? To make a backstitch, simply machine-stitch your fabric normally over 3 stitches, then reverse over these same 3 stitches before continuing your stitching forward. When you reach the end of the stitch, we make another 3 stitches backward to make the final backstitch. Going over these 3 stitches on the machine allows us to tie the threads together and therefore secure our seam.
- Iron each piece, opening the seam allowances with the iron.
