How to get it

Yours from the start of a new game

Sewn on the mannequin

This is how the pattern looks sewn up on the mannequin, in the game's own light. Pick two colours, tap a piece to give it its own, and use the arrows to see every side.

Thank you to Pia, who had the idea for these pictures.

The pieces

Here is every piece laid flat at the same scale, the way the cutting room shows it before the mannequin sizes it. The solid line is where you cut, the dotted line is the seam and the arrow shows the grain.

Grain quality is best when the arrow runs along the length of the fabric. Turn a piece across the fabric and it gets about 75 percent at most.

A piece marked Bias gets full grain quality both along and across the fabric.
