How to lengthen and shorten pattern pieces:
Cut the pattern pieces along the marked lines.
To lengthen
, slide the two halves of the pattern piece as far
apart as necessary.
To shorten
, overlap the two halves of the pattern piece as far
as necessary. Blend the side edges.
CUTTING OUT
FOLD (– – – –)
means: here is the center of a pattern piece
but never a cut edge or a seam. The piece should be cut
double, with the fold line forming the center line. Pattern
pieces that are outlined with a broken line in the cutting
diagrams are to be placed face down on the fabric. The
cutting diagrams on the pattern sheet show how the pattern
pieces should be placed on the fabric.
The cutting diagrams show the placement of the pattern
on the fabric. Fabric I, fabric II and tulle.
Fabric I, fabric II: Cut pieces 1 to 4 and 6 to 15 from fabric II
from fabric II. For a single layer of fabric, the pattern pieces
are pinned to the right side. For double layers of fabric, the
right sides are facing and the pattern pieces are pinned to the
wrong side. The pattern pieces that are shown extending over
the fold of the fabric in the cutting diagram should be cut last
from a single layer of fabric.
Fabrics:
I: taffeta, II: chiffon
Paper cut for ANSI A (German DIN A4) prints:
The plus size dress pattern is so large that it does not have a
print at home version, only the copy shop version.
Select your size according to the Burda-dimension table:
dresses, blouses, jackets and coats according to the bust size,
trousers and skirts according to the hip width. If necessary,
change the pattern to fit your measurements if they deviate
from the Burda-size chart.
Cut out the pattern according to your size.
Important:
Piece 13 (front center skirt panel) is an
asymmetric piece and will be cut once only. When cutting
out place the pattern with it’s wrong side facing the right side
of the fabric, and cut.
LENGTHENING OR SHORTENING THE PATTERN
PIECES
Our pattern is calculated for a height of 5’ 6” (168 cm). If

way the proper fit is maintained. Always adjust all pattern
pieces along the same line to the same degree.
