1) MEASURE AROUND YOUR BUST 2) MEASURE AROUND YOUR WAIST 3) FOLD YOUR FABRIC IN HALF MARK OUT YOUR MEASUREMENTS LEAVING AN EXTRA INCH OR TWO FOR BUST & HEM FOLD & SEAM ALLOWANCE & CUT
LAY THE FABRIC OUT FLAT RIGHT SIDE FACING AWAY FROM YOU STARTING AT THE TOP DOUBLE FOLD THE BUST LINE 1-2 INCH'S WIDE ENOUGH TO THREAD YOUR ELASTIC THROUGH & PIN
STRAIGHT STITCH FROM END TO END
IT SHOULD LOOK LIKE THIS
USING THE SAME METHOD DO THE SAME ON THE HEM LINE BUT SMALLER MAYBE HALF AN INCH TO AN INCH PIN & SINGE STITCH FROM END TO END
NOW FOLD YOUR FABRIC IN HALF RAW EDGE'S TOGETHER MAKE SURE IT'S INSIDE OUT & PIN THE SIDE'S TOGETHER
STARTING UNDER THE BUST EDGING SINGLE STITCH ALL THE WAY DOWN (DO NOT SEW THE BUST EDGING AS IT NEED'S TO BE OPEN TO THREAD YOUR ELASTIC)
NOW ZIG,ZAG STITCH ALL THE WAY DOWN TO OVER LOCK IT
TAKE A SAFETY PIN,PIN YOUR ELASTIC TO IT & THREAD THROUGH YOUR BUST EDGING SEW THE ELASTIC TOGETHER SEW THE SEAM TOGETHER
& YOUR DONE :)
