About the video: Preparation of the tissue and positioning of the patterns
Overview

This step is super important for the final result of the garment. Plus, these concepts will help you with anything you want to cut in the future! You will see how you lose the fear of cutting! ”
In this video lesson Lantoki addresses the topic: Preparation of the tissue and positioning of the patterns, which is part of the Domestika online course: Dressmaking: Design Your Own Dress Shirt. Give personality to your wardrobe by creating your own dress shirts from scratch.
