 Cutting
 ^^^^^^^
 
+Cut two fronts and two backs from the fabric.
+
+Also cut two backs from the lining fabric, and two fronts, with no
+sewing allowance on the center front edge.
+
+.. tip:: instead of cutting two backs, you may put the pattern in such a
+   way that the top lies on a fold, parallel to the grainline, and sew
+   the excess fabric in a big dart, pressing it open.
+
+Note that the seaming allowance is 1 cm on all sides except for the
+center front, where it is needed for the cording and the eyeles, and for
+the side seam, where a bigger sewing allowance can be used to let the
+seam out if needed in the future.
+
+Fronts
+^^^^^^
+
+Sew the darts with a running backstitch on both the fabric and the
+lining, press towards the side.
+
+Press all edges of the fabric pieces towards the wrong side by the
+corresponding sewing allowance, mitering the corners.
+
+Lining
+^^^^^^
+
+If you haven't already, press all edges of the back pieces towards the
+wrong side by the corresponding sewing allowance, mitering the corners.
+
+Press all edges of the lining towards the wrong side by 4 mm more than
+the sewing allowance, mitering the corners.
+
+Pin the lining on top of the corresponding fabric piece, wrong sides
+together and sew it with a hemstitch, catching just the sewing allowance
+of the fabric piece.
