The sleeves and "back" should be on folds, make sure to cut 2 sleeves as pictured below. The hood and "front" are not on a fold. The cut pieces are pictured in the second image - double check that you have the correct number of pieces.

Bottom: Sleeve 1 & 2 and "Back"
Step 3: Pin and sew the hems for each individual piece
2 sleeves "back" 2 "fronts" 2 identical "front" pieces
