The top stitch keeps the fabric tacked down so it doesn't get caught in the zipper when you are using it.

essentially, yes. I usually recommend also drawing (with the square feature) a 1" square for you to double check sizing.

yes, it should work with triangles. To add length, union would work. probably. its been a hot minute since I've used inkscape, so you might want to copy and paste a few versions to experiment.

@@SunnyMountainPatterns thank you 🙏

it should import correctly, but its always a good idea to check the scale. You can do that by drawing a square (such as a 2" x 2" square) and your A0 should have a similar square already on it.

@@SunnyMountainPatterns thanks!

It might be a difference in versions. I made this about 2 years ago. So perhaps interpolate is called something different now.

hope it helps! The old machines are the best for this hack, since they have very thin feet.

Hello J- The course is geared towards Adobe Illustrator. Thanks! Also, I stopped using the Teachable platform to host the lessons.

@@SunnyMountainPatterns that’s a bummer.. any way I can email you? Thank you

@@jlehmann5717 yes- you can find my email address at my etsy shop: etsy.com/shop/sunnymountainpattern

if you're using inkscape, you would need to select the paper size to be 8 1/2x11 (US) or A4, and move each part over the paper outline in inkscape and print a separate pdf per each. This might have changed with the newest version of inkscape.

@@SunnyMountainPatterns Heyy, can you make a video showing how to do this please?

You're welcome!

you're welcome!

yes, you can pivot the back pant leg to match at the crotch with the front, and then adjust the length of the inseam of the back from there. Do the same with the side seam, and you should be good to go. To pivot, you just click a 2nd time (slower than a double click) and rotation handles should show up.

you are welcome! hope it helps you!

you'e welcome!

Hi, no it doesn't. This program is a SVG software. You would have to do the pattern drafting yourself, but can use Inkscape to do so.

thank you for your feedback! I'll try to get the shortcuts straight next time!

It sure is! THis was a combination effort between myself and one of the members of the projectors for sewing facebook group members!

Thank you for that helpful shortcut tip! I'll have to add it onto my version 2!

Fiona, I made a version two, and included your tip! It's a really awesome tip, thank you!

thank you! I'm glad that this tutorial helped! Usually I draft my own patterns for myself, so no full bust adjustment needed on my part, but thought that I'd make a tutorial on using inkscape so you can make one yourself for projector files.

Ewa- yes this is a baby romper pattern. I haven't tried Valentina, but did give Wild Ginger a try, it was very hard to learn how to use. The only advantage I can see from specific pattern drafting software would be the size grading features, and if the software could link between pattern pieces, such as if you made the armhole larger, the sleeve cap would automatically adjust to that longer length.

Hi! Glad you've got some questions! 1. for a liner, it requires a different assembly technique, because it's a bit tricky to make the bag right side out again. That's too hard to type out the instructions here. 2. the grey ends are only necessary if you have to cut the zipper to fit to the bag.You can have the ends (without cutting them) inside the bag. If you cut the zipper and do not put stoppers, the zipper will zip right off. 3. of course you could leave out the strap. It's just one less step for you to do. Thank you for the questions!

@@SunnyMountainPatterns awesome! Thanks! One more question: what kinds of fabric can I use for the divider?

@@totallyawesomex1057 you can use any type of woven fabric (read: non stretchy fabric). So things like poplin, canvas, duck cloth, denim. Of course you could use knit fabric (stretchy fabric) but that usually gets misshapen while you are working with it.

@@SunnyMountainPatterns thank you so much! I'm so new to sewing, so this helps a TON! I appreciate you taking the time to respond. 😊

@@totallyawesomex1057 you are welcome! Good luck on your journey!

that is true- the bust point is the hard part! Of coures I don't know how to do this for a 2 dart or dartless pattern (just make it wider?). Good luck!

@@SunnyMountainPatterns yeah…dartless I usually create a dart and then rotate it out but I used a rectangular thing last time and it would be easier digitally I think.

Or a boob bump…

@@DaileySewsStuff a retctangular thing? that sounds not dart like at all! I need to see that!

@@SunnyMountainPatterns yes! It was for knits/dartless FBAs.

Perhaps inkscape is not reading them as groups, but as one very large complicated set of paths? If not, please try Path-convert object to path first, and see if that works.

you have to ungroup them first, then you can union. if not, then go to path>object to path

Hello- you can separate the sizes on a PDF on Inkscape by ungrouping. shift+control+g

Yvonne, you are welcome! I thought some cute different scrunchies would be fun!

Julia-Isabel- yes, you can! It's just 1" wide strips cut on the bias (at 45 degrees from the selvage), then folded in towards the center along the length. There's lots of little tools to help form bias tape, but the idea is generally to just fold in half along the length, and then fold the ends in like a book to form a double fold bias tape. Non stretch linen should work perfectly to make bias tape!

Celeste- thank you for the input! I will refilm a slowed down (probably in real time) tutorial soon!

thank you! Once I get the tutorial put together, the pattern and tutorial will be available on the Sewing Sunny Mountain Patterns facebook group

Thanks! Well, It's not quite dora's backpack, seeing as it's real and not a cartoon

Bernadette- thank you! Yes, that should be correct- Mirroring should be the same as the old paper "cut on fold". Do check the instructions, though, to double check that it should be a single piece (and not two separate pieces). Generally, bodice fronts, backs, and skirt fronts and backs are cut on fold traditionally.

Joey- thanks for the kind words! my patterns are available on Etsy right now: etsy.com/shop/sunnymountainpattern

Thanks, Wendy!

Thanks, Wendy! I appreciate the words!

Thank you! Cheers!
