cut on fold means to fold the fabric Aand place the pattern piece on the fabric so it is lined up in the fold. you will be cutting thru 2 layers of fabric. cut the pattern out but don't cut the side that is along the fold. when you open it up, it will be one complete piece. You will cut two piece just like this. One will be the lining piece. these two will be sewn together with a small area left open to turn it right side out. Then you will have to handstitch the opened area closed. To add the D-ring, I cut a strip of fabric and fold it lengthwise and iron it so the cut edges do not show. this is sewn from the neck to the edge of the vest with the d-ring sewn into it. |
