Fusible interfacing
An adhesive fabric applied to the wrong side of garment pieces like facings to add structure and stability.
Where it is used
Verifying Seam Lengths
p. 1- After fusing, compare the seam lengths on the fabric pieces with the seam lengths on the paper pattern to ensure they match perfectly.

Interfacing the Waistband
p. 2- Fully interface the waistband (1 pc). It is recommended to interface the pieces using the block-fusing method: rough-cut the pieces with an additional 1–2 cm allowance, apply the fusible interfacing, and then precisely cut them out according to the pattern piece. Next, fold under the seam allowance of one long edge of the waistband (1 cm) and press.

Fusible interfacing
p. 4- Fuse a 1.2 cm-wide strip of interfacing to the pocket-opening seam allowances on the wrong side of the front pant pieces.

Fusible interfacing
p. 4- Fuse the cut pieces: the center waistband section, the welt pieces, and the pant hem facings.

Fusible interfacing
p. 4- Fuse the fly interfacing to the fly seam allowance on the wrong side of the right front pant piece.

1. Fusible interfacing (Back)
p. 4- Fuse a 0.7 cm-wide strip of interfacing to the back panel neckline edge on the wrong side.

1. Fusible interfacing (Front)
p. 4- Fuse a 0.7 cm-wide strip of interfacing to the front neckline edge on the wrong side.

1. Fusible interfacing (Sleeves)
p. 5- Fuse a 0.7 cm-wide strip of interfacing to the sleeve neckline edges on the wrong side.

Preparing the Facing
p. 3- Fold the facing in half and press it lightly. If the material is thin, the facing can be interfaced completely or partially with fusible material if necessary.

Reinforce Zipper Seam Allowances
p. 3- On the wrong side of the front and collar pieces, reinforce the zipper seam allowances with a strip of fusible interfacing. Attach a 10 mm wide strip, keeping it 2–3 mm away from the edge so the strip’s edge will be caught in the stitching.

1. Interfacing
p. 3- Fuse the waistband pattern pieces. Attach a 1 cm wide strip of interfacing to the seam allowance at the pocket opening on the front skirt panels.

1. Fusible interfacing
p. 4- Apply interfacing to the wrong side of the cut pieces: outer and inner waistband for the back piece.
