We have reached our last day of the Cinema\/Hide-and-Seek Dress Sew-Along. Today we will be finishing up the Cinema Dress<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s getting very exciting because we\u2019re so close to the end. Off we go!<\/p>\n

Prepare the Sleeves and Attach the Cuffs<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Sew a row of gathering stitches 3\/8\u201d from the raw edge of the cap of one sleeve, starting and stopping at the sleeve cap\u2019s side notches and leaving thread tails several inches long on both ends of the gathering stitches. Then sew a second row of gathering stitches 5\/8\u201d from the raw edge. (Note that the sleeve cap also has a center notch, which you\u2019ll use later to help align and pin the sleeve and armhole to sew them together.)\n

    \"Gathering<\/a><\/li>\n

  2. Fold the sleeve in half, with right sides together, and pin the side edges of the sleeve together. Stitch the sleeve with a 1\/2\u201d seam and press the seam allowances open. Finish the seam allowances using your preferred method.\n

    \"Cinema<\/a><\/li>\n

  3. Fold one sleeve cuff in half lengthwise, with wrong sides together, and press a crease into the center. Unfold the fabric and sew a line of basting stitches 3\/8\u201d from one long, notched edge. Fold and press the fabric to the wrong side along the basting line.\n

    \"Cinema<\/a><\/li>\n

  4. Unfold the sleeve cuff\u2019s edge and pin the short ends of the sleeve cuff, with right sides together. Stitch the short edges together with a 1\/2\u201d seam, backstitching or lockstitching at both ends. Press the seam allowances open and then refold the sleeve cuff\u2019s long, pressed edge.\n

    \"Cinema<\/a><\/li>\n

  5. Pin the right side of the sleeve cuff\u2019s long notched edge to the wrong side of the sleeve\u2019s raw edge, matching the seams and notches. Stitch the cuff in place with a 1\/2\u201d seam.\n

    \"Attaching<\/a><\/p>\n

    \"Attaching<\/a>\"Trim<\/p>\n

    Turn the sleeve right-side out and pull the sleeve cuff away from the sleeve. Press the sleeve cuff and remaining seam allowances away from the sleeve.<\/p>\n

    \"Turn<\/a><\/li>\n

  6. Fold the cuff along the center crease and pin the folded edge to cover the basting line from Step 3, pinning from the right side of the sleeve. Edgestitch the seam to finish the sleeve cuff, catching the folded edge in the seam.\n

    \"Sleeve<\/a><\/p>\n

    \"Sleeve<\/a><\/li>\n

  7. Repeat steps 1-6 to prepare the second sleeve and cuff.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Sew the Side Seams and Attach the Sleeves<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Pin the front and back of the dress together at the sides, with right sides together, and stitch the side seams with a 1\/2\u201d seam, backstitching or lockstitching at both ends. Press the seam allowances open and finish them using your preferred method.\n

      \"Sew<\/a><\/li>\n

    2. With the dress turned wrong-side out, pin one right-side-out sleeve into the corresponding armhole. Match the notches and seam of the sleeve with the notches and seam of the armhole. Pull on the gathering thread tails to ease the small amount of excess fabric at the top (cap) of the sleeve until it matches the armhole. Smooth the fabric to eliminate any puckers and pin the sleeve into place. Stitch the sleeve to the armhole with a 1\/2\u201d seam. Finish the seam allowances together using your preferred method and press them toward the sleeve. Attach and finish the second sleeve the same way. Once the sleeves are sewn, you can remove any visible basting stitches from the sleeve caps.\n

      \"Attach<\/a><\/p>\n

      \"Sleeve<\/a><\/li>\n

    3. Fold an press the cuff to the sleeve\u2019s right side by approximately 1 1\/2\u201d. Tack the folded edge of the cuff to the sleeve at the underarm seam by hand or by machine to hold it in place. (If desired, you can also tack the cuff by hand in a few other spots to help keep it in place when the dress is worn. Try to take the stitches just inside the fold, so they aren\u2019t visible from the outside of the dress.)\n

      \"Tack<\/a><\/li>\n

    4. Repeat steps 2-3 for the second sleeve.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Finish the Dress<\/strong><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. To hem the dress, sew a line of basting stitches 1\/2\u201d from the garment\u2019s bottom edge, which will become the first fold line for the hem. Sew a second line of basting stitches (or use tailor\u2019s chalk to draw a line) 1 1\/2\u201d from the bottom edge.\n

        \"Basting<\/a><\/p>\n

        Fold and press the fabric\u2019s bottom raw edge along the first basting line to the wrong side.<\/p>\n

        \"Folding<\/a><\/p>\n

        Then fold and press again at the second basting line to enclose the raw edge.<\/p>\n

        \"Folding<\/a><\/p>\n

        Edgestitch the hem along the second, innermost, fold to hem the dress.<\/p>\n

        \"Sewing<\/a><\/p>\n

        Remove basting stitches.<\/p>\n

        \"Remove<\/a><\/li>\n

      2. Sew buttons on the wearer\u2019s left yoke at the marked positions.\n

        \"Sew<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        You are now done with your Cinema Dress! Please do share photos of your completed Cinema Dresses in the Liesl +Co. Patterns Flickr group<\/a>, we\u2019d love to see what you created!<\/p>\n

        \"Liesl<\/a><\/p>\n

        Surprise! I shortened my Cinema Dress to tunic length and eliminated the pockets.<\/p>\n
