But since they were competing against the big 4 which do have seam allowances, they decided to add seam allowances to compete more advantageously. That's how 5/8" seam allowances were added and not 3/8" ones. I believe that the European versions of Burda patterns still do not have seam allowances but I could be wrong.<br /><br />That is a cute top and I love the bias band!Carolyn (Diary of a Sewing Fanatic)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02204627216540667980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4198660701949089916.post-8647045777359500502009-11-10T12:12:38.867-05:002009-11-10T12:12:38.867-05:00Very nice.
