Drafting Neckline and Armhole Facings

"I have a tutorial that is literally so important I only wonder why I haven’t done it earlier. To be honest, facings are always something I draft when I want to finish my neckline or armholes without a lining. I’m not too keen on bias binding finishes so these are usually my go-tos. And the thing is, they’re so straightforward, it doesn’t take a lot to create one. As long as you have your bodice pattern piece, you’re good to go. I usually like having my seam allowance drawn on my bodice pattern first, that way I don’t have to add them to the facing patterns."
