Answer:
CUTTING FABRIC - HOW TO CUT FABRIC CORRECTLY
Cutting fabric accurately is just as important to getting a professionally finished project as the actual sewing is. With a little extra care taken to learn how to cut fabric, you will be on your way to the next step – sewing.
Before you start, check your cutting tools. At a minimum, you will need:
Fabric Shears - These are scissors specially designed for cutting fabric. They are sharp and accurate and will become your most used tool in the workroom.
Cheap Scissors - Use a cheaper pair to cut the paper patterns
STEP 1 – PREPARE YOUR FABRIC
Pre washing - Pre washing your fabric before sewing checks for shrinkage, color bleeding and removes any unwanted finishing chemicals the fabric has been treated with.
STEP 2 – ESTABLISH THE GRAINLINE
Now we are ready to fold the fabric ready for cutting. Fold your fabric in half lengthwise so the 2 selvages meet.
STEP 3 – CHECK YOUR SIZING
Check the sizing you will be using and cut out the paper pattern pieces for your size.
STEP 4 – PIN YOUR PATTERNS
Most patterns will have a suggested pattern layout. Place your pieces and pin them accordingly.
STEP 5 - CUTTING FABRIC
We're at the final step in learning how to cut fabric! The actual cutting fabric takes far less time than all the pinning and preparation.
Carefully cut around the pattern pieces with sharp scissors to get a nice accurate clean edge. Try to follow the pattern piece as closely as possible.
