Hi, I'm Terri Turco with Expert Village and we've been looking at how to cut out a pattern,
navigating our way through a pattern and finding out all the particulars of really making something
fit. Now we are at the section that we've actually cut out our pattern, our tissue from
the tissue at hand and we've ironed it, because it always needs to lie flat. But, I want to
go one step further even though we have cut it out. You're always going to see some extra
salvage tissue on the lines that are for fold or salvaging and I really think it's important
to just cut right down on that extra tissue and get rid of it. It's going to give you
a much better fit and it's going to make it easier to bump it up to the fold on the fabric.
So, as you see, this is simple obviously. Just cut that excess out and we're going to
lay it down on the fabric and get ready to pin it. OK. So just do that on both pieces
and make sure that you've ironed this tissue so that it lies completely flat. And then,
we are going to be back in just a minute, because we are going to pin it down and show
you what a fold and a salvage is for the last time. So, don't leave now, we're almost done.
