Luckily, there was another 3 yards on the clearance table - 50 cents a yard. First sentence I noticed: 'No Seam Allowance Included'. (And I was dealing with a nap - corduroy )After I finished, I decided to read the instructions. I bought a jacket pattern that had at least 13-14 pieces. Keeping the grain straight is also extra important because cutting off grain can cause the same color problem.Д«ut hopefully your first Burda goes better than mine. Thankfully, that was back in the days of cheap fabric. In almost 50 years of sewing I've messed up and not noticed the nap twice. I've even bought cotton/poly twill fabric that had a nap. top on the left bottom on the right.) If you goof and cut one piece in an opposite direction, once sewn together, the two pieces will look like the color doesn't match due to how light reflects off of it. If your fabric has a nap, each pattern piece must be laid out with the tops of each piece in the same direction (ie. Just wanted to chime in on the nap situation because some toweling, for instance french terry cloth, can have a nap. The dog, IвЂ™m afraid is your problem, IвЂ™d just shut her out of the way but that might seem harsh to you. In the past IвЂ™ve used cheap paper table cloths.ДЇor your Burda pattern use View B and simply shorten the body pieces of the pattern to the length of View A before you pin them on your fabric. You can buy dressmakers tracing paper but any paper you can see through can be used. ItвЂ™s a bit of a faff but worth it for patterns you may want to use again. If you want to reuse a pattern in the future itвЂ™s best to trace off the size you need, keeping the original as a master pattern. If a piece is cut on a fold, the fold should be parallel to the selvedge. Velvet, which has nap wonвЂ™t match if the pile runs up in one piece and down in another.ДЄlways follow the grain line on the pattern pieces and put them parallel to the selvedge. The easiest way to think of nap is the texture on the surface of the cloth. YouвЂ™re right about the grain, it is parallel to the selvedge. ItвЂ™s not usually good practice to use the actual selvedge edge.

Others will come along later with more fluent answers than mine, but I can start you off.ДЎ40cm is the full width of the fabric, selvedge to selvedge so you should have some leeway if your fabric is 150cm. Wish me luck!ДЄll help welcome as this pattern seems a bit more complicated to the T-shirts I did last. So I am going to have to be careful when I cut it out when she is not around or in a mischievous mood. The last issue is that our Springer Spaniel Millie is partial to a bit of tissue paper and loves ripping it up. Perhaps that needs some thought before I start with my scissors. Is it normal to just cut out the size for now and if you need a different size in the future to buy another copy? I suppose if the Medium is fully within the parts of the Large, I wouldn't have an issue and could just cut the large down to a medium - but I'm not sure it all is. The next issue is that I am making a Large and if I was to make one in the future for me (says he hopefully) it would probably be Medium. So I am going to have to make the long length one and cut it down at the pattern stage which shouldn't cause too much of a problem (famous last words!) although some of the material in the long one is a different colour and we are going to do it in all one colour. The only version that does NOT have a hood. The next problem is that we want to make the medium length gown but with a hood. If this shows I am being incredibly stupid and all materials have grain, then I would guess that the grain goes parallel with the selvedge edge? This might explain why it seems I need what appears to me, a ridiculous amount of material! Is nap the same as grain of the material? If it is without nap does it mean I can orient the material anyway I like?Дoes towelling have a grain in the material. The next problem is the pattern has a little triangle (with nap) on some of the dimensions and a little star (without nap) on others. Or is the 140cm quoted on the pattern the usable width discounting the edge bits which look a bit scruffy? (selvedge?) Now my material comes in 150cm widths so hopefully I'll have a bit of extra leeway. The first issue is that there are 2 sets of material length requirements: 45ins/114cm and 55ins/140cm which I am guessing is the width of the material. And I am trying to work out how much material to order. I have this pattern for a bath robe for my other half (Burda 6740 if you are interested).
