Simplicity pattern 1519. I don't understand how to complete the bottom of the purse. The Dart seams are confusing to me.

Hello, Grace -

There has been more than one Simplicity sewing pattern with the number 8024. I don't know which one you are sewing with.

The current Simplicity sewing pattern I have found is:

- Babie's Christening Sets with Bonnets (I think this is the current pattern for sale.)

The other patterns I have found are vintage patterns:-

- Misses dresses with princess seaming; 1 sleeveless style; 1 short sleeve style

Whatever pattern you are sewing, I suggest you take the printed cutting and sewing instructions to a nearby sewing supplies store and ask one of the sales associates for help in figuring out what to do.

Or, you can contact Simplicity and ask for an explanation:

Hello, Kathy -

Doesn't the tissue pattern for the garment you wish to sew have seam markings on it, indicating the seam allowance?

See image 02 here:
https://www.thesprucecrafts.com/techniques-for-sewing-clothing-2978471
It shows an edge of a pattern piece with the seam allowance printed on it.

It has been a long time since have sewn garments, but I recall that unless the pattern indicates otherwise, seams are sewn at 5/8 inches. If the pattern indicates 1 inch seam allowances and no other seam allowance depth, then, a 1 inch seam allowance it is.

I do not have Simplicity Pattern #1800 myself. If you do not have the printed sewing instructions for the pattern (where the seam depth may be stated), then you may wish to contact Simplicity Creative Group and ask to purchase replacement instructions for your pattern.

This is the US toll free phone number to call:
833-201-5260

To send an email, this is the link to the web page with a form you can use to fill out to ask about the availability of replacement instructions:

Best wishes.

It appears to be a rag quilt:

The raw edges are on the outside so the fabric frays and gets fuzzy when laundered. With a little ingenuity, it can probably be stitched with the seams inside so the seams are finished.

Take the instruction sheet and the fabric pattern pieces (the parts you don't understand) to the local fabric store and ask if someone there can help you.

Just guessing here. Put the front & back pieces together with the rights sides facing each other. Stitch the shoulder seams, then stitch the side seams.

You could contact Simplicity and see if they can help.

or find a free diaper bag pattern on line and use as a guide.

bags arent too difficilt, usually need to interface well, attach pockets, straps, then sew lining to top edge wrong side to wrong side, leaving a bit of the lining or side seam open so you can get inside to attach lining seam allowances to bag seam allowances to hold together.

When I don't understand instructions, I look at the instructional images. Turn your fabric just like the picture. It helps to understand what they are telling you. Make sure you understand their way of noting back and front of fabric. I have been sewing for 43 years and I still do that. I think the people writing the instructions don't actually sew.

if you copy this link into your browser window you will see the pattern details including Instructions, its a tab down the screen under the image, "Fabric and Notions" "instructions" and "size chart"

Looks pretty easy, sew the inside leg seam of each trouser leg together,
then sew the ****** seam and do the waistband.
