Marking and Topstitching the Fly

p. 5
  1. From the right side of the pants, align the left and right front pieces exactly along the center line (marked line). Pin them in place. Measure 3 cm from the center front and mark the topstitching line for the fly on the right front piece from the outside. Sew a topstitch along the edge while attaching the second half of the zipper. Add a bar tack at the center front for extra strength.
