Sewing the bodice

Sew the shoulders and sides of the front and back bodice, right sides together, using a 1 cm seam allowance. Press the seams. fig 1

Sew the shoulders and sides of the lining, good sides together, and press the seam open. fig 4

Sew the lining and the main fabric on the neckline and hem, right sides together, all the way around. fig 5

Sew a 1 mm topstitch through the lining, catching the seam allowance also. Trim the seam allowance in the curved areas. Turn the fabric inside out through the armhole and carefully press the neckline and hem

Sewing the sleeve

Apply fusible interlining on the cuff pieces

Sew the bias tape on the sleeve slit: Place the bias strip to the sleeve slit edge, right side to right side. Sew the bias to the edge using the edge of the machine foot as a guide.

Join the side edges of the cuff piece (right sides together) using a 1 cm seam allowance. cut the corners and turn the cuff inside out. Press to form the final cuff. fig 9

Take the sleeve and sew one row of gathers at 0.5 cm and the second row at 1.5 cm on the bottom part. Sew at a great pace and leave long tails of thread for gathering. fig 10

Place the bottom of the sleeve that is going to be gathered to the top of the outer cuff right, side to right side.

Gently pull on the two ends of the thread on the wrong side-the fabric will gather along the thread. fig 11

When all the gathers are in place, sew the sleeve and cuff together, using a 1 cm seam allowance. Press the seam gently

Turn under the seam allowance of the under cuff and pin in place around the cuff edge, taking care to insert the seam allowance inside the cuff. Make sure the two leading front edges of the cuff are symmetrical.

Use a flat top stitch to secure the under cuff at the cuff edge. Sew at 0.5 cm. fig 12

Between the sleeve notches, insert two rows of gather stitches, one row at 0.5 cm from the raw edge and the second row at 1.5 cm. Sew at a great pace; fig 13

Place the sleeve into the armhole, right side to right side. Match the notches and the underarm seams. Pull up the gathers to make the sleeve head fit the armhole. Pin from the sleeve side.
