Making the pattern

Pattern of the interfacing


French seam

Simple zigzag finish (an alternative to "serging")

Almost done with the seams!

"Rouching" - created by sewing the outer layer of the fabric to the facing, creating a "tunnel." The desired string is then inserted into the tunnel and the fabric is pulled to the desired rouched effect
