Phyllis G. started the topic Underarm curved seam allowance in the forum liesl + co: late lunch tunic 8 months ago
The directions say to trim the curved seam allowance to 1/2″, but it is already 1/2″. Should that be 1/4″, 1/8″, or what?
Thanks. -

I recently acquired a serger and am slowly getting acquainted with it. I can’t figure out how to sew at the correct seam allowance, say, 3/8″ or 1/2″. What do I align with what, so that the seam is in the correct place while the knife cuts the excess?
Thanks. -

Thank you. That makes a lot of sense.

Why do you use templates for buttonhole placements instead of marking them on the pattern?

Phyllis G. replied to the topic Pencil skirt: Lining question in the forum liesl + co: extra-sharp pencil skirt 5 years ago
I was wondering about lining it, too. I’ve made one without a lining and it works fine. I plan on making another. But having a lining would prevent the fabric from getting baggy in the seat.
Is there a blog post somewhere on how to line a skirt?
If a skirt doesn’t call for a lining but you make one anyway, do you skip any waist and edge facings…[Read more] -

Ah ha! Got it. I thought the two smaller pieces were from another pattern piece but now I see they’re the result of cutting the one bigger piece along the cut line. Many thanks.

I’m making the Liesl & Co classic shirt. The pattern pieces provide one sleeve placket piece (number 9), but the directions on page 12, “Making the Sleeve Placket,” show that there are two pieces for the sleeve placket. Where/how do I get the one on the right? I have the one on the left (pattern piece 9).
