Draw the front and back pieces up on pattern paper.
3:
Cut out fronts and back and add 1 cm seam allowance.
4:
Sew side and shoulder seams.
5:
Press 1 cm seam allowance. Pin the patchwork to the garment with safety pins. Over-cast along the front edges, collar, lower edge and armholes.
6:
Use two strands of embroidery yarn and quilt 2 mm from the horizontal and vertical stitching in the patchwork.
