title: "Breanna body block: Cutting Instructions"
---
**Main fabric**
- Cut **1 Front** part on the fold.
- Cut **2 Back** parts.
- Cut **2 Sleeve** parts, _good sides together_.
These cutting instructions are just for the default Breanna block. Adjust your cutting accordingly if you have/are making changes to the block.
:::tip
If you do not have someone to help pin you into Breanna then you may find it easier to Cut 2 Front parts with seam allowance and sew the backs up when constructing so you can pin in the front.

:::note
###### Breanna is a block, not a pattern
A block is a basic shape on which other patterns are based.
They are sometimes also called slopers, although purists will argue that a block and a sloper are different things.
Blocks are typically not made as-is but rather serve as a basis for other patterns.
