Close bust darts on front sections and press down. Close side seams, leaving a slit open on the right side for pulling through the belt, as marked on the pattern. Press seam allowances apart.
Close shoulder darts on sleeves and press seam allowances back. Close sleeve seams and press seam allowances apart. Turn pieces and sew raglan sleeves right sides facing to armholes of front and back sections.
