Finishing the pattern part 2



Once you've got that done, add the length of the top tier.



Finish up the rectangle, label it and don't forget to write fold on one end of the pattern piece.



The bottom tier pattern will be wider than the top tier for ruffling. The more you add to the width, the flouncier it will be. But, it has to be at least 4 inches wider total. Which means that if your top tier pattern width is 8 inches wide, your bottom tier pattern width will be 10 inches wide. (Remember, you will be folding the fabric under your pattern piece). The length of this piece is totally up to you. Don't forget to label this pattern piece. When you have finished drafting these 2 pieces, cut them out, take a break, and we'll start cutting out the fabric.
