Basic Cutting Instructions
I just made a video with basic instructions for cutting your pattern pieces out of fabric. I use the rotary cutter method—it’s quick, easy, and gives super accurate results. When I first started, I used to pin the pattern pieces to fabric and cut around them with scissors, but I struggled to get precise cuts. This can be a big issue with doll clothes, where even small variations in size can affect the fit. Do you have a favorite method for cutting your patterns?
