→ To the pattern “Anna”

Required material:

We recommend silk, viscose or polyester satin combined with jersey.

Sizes 34-50

  • Jersey 0.80 m (140 cm wide)

Sizes 34-50

  • Outer fabric 0.90 m (140 cm wide)

cutting:

Cut out the pattern pieces from your outer fabric. Lay the fabric right side up. Lay the selvedges parallel to the center so that you can lay the front and back pieces in the fold. The pattern pieces should all be face up. Always align the grain arrow on all pieces in the same direction and parallel to the selvage of the fabric. Transfer all notches from the pattern through a 3mm long incision with scissors or with chalk and mark the ends of the darts, note that from size 42-50 bust darts must be used. Pinch the seam allowance in the fold of the fabric because this is always a center. Markings define positions of dart ends, pocket positions, etc. Transfer these either with chalk or pins.

You need from fabric:
  • 1x front part in break
  • 1x back part in break
  • 1x neck band

Sewing instructions:

To sew this shirt you need a sewing machine and an overlock sewing machine, alternatively you can use the zigzag stitch on your sewing machine to finish the raw edges. Be sure to use a jersey needle and use a stretch stitch, i.e. if you are sewing with a home sewing machine you should use either a zigzag stitch or the tripartite elastic stitch and then all seam allowances again with a zigzag stitch or another appropriate stitch neaten so they don't fray. In addition to the description, the colorful lines in the pictures show you where a seam needs to be sewn or something to be glued.

When sewing, pay attention to the seam allowance included in the pattern. Seam allowances that are not specially marked are 1 cm wide!

Happy sewing!

Sizes 42-50 have a bust dart, sew it down according to the pattern. A simple, straight dart is closed and sewn on the wrong side of the fabric, snap by snap, tapering from the widest point to the tip (so that the dart does not bag) on ​​the wrong side of the fabric, following the exact transfer of the pattern and carefully observing the marking. Draw a line with the tailor's chalk beforehand so that you don't sew too much or too little and finish the side seam nicely straight.
So that you don't have to bartack at the top, you can sew the last centimeter with a very small stitch.

You iron the dart content upwards.

After you have processed the bust darts, neaten all side seams of the front and back parts.

Then close the side seams of the front and back sections, right sides together. Make sure that you don't sew to the end of the sleeve opening (see yellow line in the photo), so that the hem of the armhole can be easily turned over later. Pay attention to the seam allowances in the pattern.

Iron the seam allowances apart.

Close the shoulder seams with a seam and neaten the seam allowances together. Then iron them backwards.

Neaten the seam allowances of the sleeve all around...

... and iron the sleeve hem of your shirt. Then topstitch the hem and iron everything flat. When processing, pay attention to the snaps in the cut.

After you have also trimmed the hem of your shirt with the overlock machine, it is ironed over at the snaps and the seam allowance is stitched with 1cm.

Now we come to the neckline. Place the ribbon right sides together and sew into a round.

Iron the seam allowances apart.

Then you iron the whole band left to left on half in the break.

Version 1:

Now you can place the strip right sides together at the neckline. Pay attention to the left shoulder seam and the ribbon seam, which are now on top of each other.

The seam allowances are then flat-stitched. This method not only makes the final ironing easier, but also means that the collar automatically lies inwards and does not roll out if it is not stitched separately. Only the tape is stitched close to the edge of the seam allowances. The stitching line can then only be seen from the wrong side of the fabric, but not from the right side.

Now cut the entire 1cm seam allowance down to 0.5cm. This has to be done so that the ribbon can now be turned inside better.

Fold everything inside, left sides together, and then stitch the ribbon close to the edge.

Variant 2:

In variant 2, the entire ribbon has to be shortened and stretched and stitched to the neck hole so that the ribbon lies smoothly on the neck and does not protrude. The best way to do this is with a doll on which you can pin the ribbon and decide how long the ribbon should be depending on the fabric.

Now the strip can be placed right sides together at the neckline. Pay attention to the shoulder seam and ribbon seam, which must lie on top of each other.

Now neaten the seam allowances together.

Finally, the seam allowances are flat-stitched. This method not only makes the final ironing easier, but also means that the collar automatically lies inwards and does not roll out if it is not stitched separately. Only the tape is stitched close to the edge of the seam allowances. The stitching line can then only be seen from the wrong side of the fabric, but not from the right side.

Your ANNA is ready!

Have fun sewing!

Sizes 42-50 have a bust dart, sew it down according to the pattern. A simple, straight dart is closed and sewn on the left side side of the fabric, notch to notch, from the widest point to the tip (so that the dart does not bag) , after transferring the pattern exactly and paying close attention to the marking . Draw a line with the tailor's chalk beforehand so that you don't sew off too much or too little and the side seam finishes nice and straight.
So that you don't have to bar-tack at the top, you can sew the last centimeter with a very small stitch.

Iron the dart contents to the top.

After you have finished the bust darts, serge all side seams of the front and back.

Then close the side seams right sides together of the front and back pieces. Make sure you don't sew all the way to the end of the sleeve neckline (see yellow line in photo), so that the hem of the armhole can be folded over well later. Pay attention to the seam allowances in the pattern.

Press the seam allowances apart.

Close the shoulder seams with a seam and overcast the seam allowances together. Then press them according to back.

Finish the seam allowances of the sleeve all around....

... and press the sleeve hem of your shirt. Topstitch the hem and press everything flat. Pay attention to the notch in the cut.

Now we come to the neckline. Place the tape right sides together and sew it into a round.

Press the seam allowances apart.

Then iron the whole tape left to left onto the half in fold.

Variant 1:

Now you can place the strip right sides together at neckline. Pay attention to the left shoulder seam and the band seam, which now lie on top of each other.

The seam allowances are then topstitched flat. This method not only facilitates the final ironing out, but also has the effect that the collar, if it is not specially topstitched, automatically lays inside and does not roll out. Only the tape is stitched close to the edge on the seam allowances. The stitching line is then only visible from the left inside of the fabric, but not from the right side.

Now trim the entire 1cm seam allowance down to 0.5cm. This must be done so that the ribbon can now be folded over into the interior more easily.

Beat everything inside out and then topstitch the ribbon close to the edge.

Variant 2:

For variant 2, the ribbon must be shortened and stretched and stitched to the neckline so that the tape fits smoothly around the neck and does not stick out. The best way to do this is to pin the tape to a doll and decide how long the ribbon should be, depending on the fabric.

Now you can place the strip right sides together on the neckline. Pay attention to the shoulder seam and the ribbon seam, which must lie on top of each other.

Now serge the seam allowances together.

Finally, the seam allowances are flat-stitched. This method not only facilitates the final ironing out but also has the effect that the collar, if it is not specially topstitched, automatically lies inside and does not roll out. Only the tape is stitched close to the edge on the seam allowances. The quilting line is then only visible from the left inside of the fabric, but not from the right side.
