SEWING

Cut iron-on interfacing for the collar (1 x) and for the front facings (2 x – facing pieces are only half reinforced with Vlieseline) without seam allowance.

Iron the interfacing onto the wrong side of the lower collar and onto the two facing pieces.

Fold the facings in half lengthwise, wrong sides together, and iron.

Reinforce the end of the incision in the front piece on the wrong side of the fabric with a small piece of fleece linen to prevent it from tearing.
