This is where you should be – Make sure your NOTCHES are in

NEXT STEP – Add Seam Allowance to the CENTER PANELS ONLY – Front and Back
Seam allowance is 1/2 INCH ALL AROUND
And then THE EASE on the SIDE PANELS – extremely important
And Lastly!
Note the CURVING of the APEX – very important
There are no SHARP ANGLES at the bust, therefore you must always CURVE them.

This is what your SIDE should look like:
- 1/4″ DOWN from Armhole on the Side
- 1/4″ OUTWARD from the Side at the Armhole
- 1/8″ OUTWARD from the Side at the Waist
- CONNECT those new marks – THIS IS YOUR NEW SIDE SEAMLINE
