Thanks, just about to add shoulder pads to two jackets…. Glad I watched this tutorial as it definitely showed me where I’ve been wrong in the past 😂

Pintucks in the front ( when possible) are wonderful for blouses to lie flat at the neckline. Also one cm wedge at the shoulder seam. Thank you for the video!🙏💙👍🏼🇵🇷🗽

Lovely and fun interview! Sarah has helped me develop several master patterns which I'm using over and over. Sarah is a real expert!

The link isn’t working.

Putting the needle through the loop is a revelation, and so much neater that the way I have always sewn the snaps. Great video.

Thank you, super helpful. Did struggle to see your mouse pointer at times though. Many thanks

I also found same error.

I found the same error when I clicked on the video course link

Congratulations on this very enrolling video. I would love to find out more about your online course. Please may you check your course link as it is showing error 500 when I click through?

Your videos are excellent!

Excellent video! Thank you so much. Are the snaps 10mm?

That has been really helpful as my bottom and top sizes are nothing like pattern measurements. This has given me the confidence to start adjusting my patterns to get a better fit and be able to use more woven fabrics.

Very informative!

Thanks for the tip about the bamboo point turner. Must get one to replace my plastic one. Great detailed explanation. Always helps to know why you do the things you do.

Really informative thank you ❤

Wow, how enjoyable to listen to you to share your ideas and experiences with each other....I felt like a fly on the wall, happy to just listen and reflect on my own garment sewing planning process. Thank you!

What a great topic if conversation. I have had many of these same thoughts throughout my life.

I learned so much from listening to this conversation. A few of my takeaways were: Photos allow you to see a larger depth of field - creates the standback view that we often don't take when we have our eyes on the garment we are sewing... I appreciated Nancy’s point of view re: “image” and “dress” , as well as how change of life circumstance leads us to rethink how we feel and want to be seen. I hope to incorporate this question when I start a project - "What would you be asking if you were sewing for someone else..."

I’ve been looking for someone that could help me with patterns and fit for so long! Wow! Thank you for clarity. 😊

How much ease at the bust would you recommend fo a jacket?

Very helpful demonstration. Thank you for sharing and explaining in a clear and detailed manner.

Very helpful so clearly explained and demonstrated

Thank you very much for sharing this wonderful information, I never thought to fix minor gaping this way.

Please get a glass of water whilst you’re recording or do some editing because this was truly painful to follow 😱😭

Omg!! You are a very clever and meticulous seamstress. I have to sew on four if these to a baby romper and it occurred to me...erm " how do I align them?" You have demonstrated how to by using a pin I also greatly love the idea of forming a loop to see them on. Thank you so much.

What’s a mock up?

Thank you😅

Awh. That was a good video❤❤❤..i have lost my sewing confidence because i have the same fitting errors that show up every shirt i make! I don't know how to fix it..watching your video gives me new hopw❤..thankyou ❤

Thankyou so much for the free video..i watched your other video on picking the right pattern size..i enjoyed that one as well..♡..i have purchased one of your books and i do plan on buying the other one in your video..since i have gotten older i have fit issues i need to learn how to fix..thankyou very much♡♡♡♡

You are amazing. Thank you for sharing this information. I have had a lifetime of struggling with gaping front, forward shoulder and hollow chest.

Agree with the earlier comments. Watching you work through this process has been so helpful. I just realized I’ve been incorrectly placing my pattern on the fold line wrong! Probably why I’ve had fitting issues. Thank you for sharing this educational video. Lovely fabric, too.

Thank you so much.

Great video! Thank you.

This was fantastic, I learned a lot! The advice about the yoke was new to me and so incredibly helpful. **I would love more information on fitting with princess seams.

I really appreciate your video! Thank you for showing your assessment method, along with the garments you made that didn't work for you, and also your calculations for how long it would take to alter them. Sewing is a hobby for me, and I am often critical of myself for how long my alterations take, so it's reassuring to know that they can in fact take considerable time even for pros. It is also good to know that you sometimes decide that some alterations are just not worth either the time, or that the type of fabric won't yield the desired results. I so appreciate the reality check! :)

Thank you so much, for sharing your video! This helps so much to assist me in what I need to do for my wrap dress!

Fascinating! This approach is much more localized and controlled rather than simply reducing the circumference of the front bodice along the entire the CF/fold. 🤔❤

Sarah, I learned about your Horizontal Balance Lines from Alexandra Morgan. I also have your fitting book.I appreciate what you contribute to the home sewists community. I have also learned about making slopers/test patterns and garments to achieve the correct fit and styling before working on my master fabric. I've also learned that I look better wearing princess lines.

Thank you for relieving the knot of frustration that suddenly emerged in my stomach (just started sewing and there's been quite a few lessons taught in a very short period of time 😅).

I’m a little late in catching this “lecture” but it was so fascinating. Agree with others, your video presentation was perfect. I’m a beginner but this video really helped me in understanding seam finishes. Your advice on finishing a seam based on what the fabric wants to do is a real game changer. Love the use of your butterfly seam finishes. I will now embrace the fact my “me-made” clothes will appear quite different on the inside and not keep trying mirror RTW clothing. Looking forward to viewing future lectures in 2024.

I agree with you about looking at garments for their details. The garment may not be me but I can see how I could use one or two of the details and adapt them to a garment I want to make. Thank you for going through the assessment of your finished garments. I like your idea of keeping swatches of the fabric you used with the pattern and noting the type of fabric, interfacings, facings, zipper placement, etc. and what you liked or didn't like about it and what you would change next time.

Hi Sarah. I have known about you for a number of years. I have your fitting book and I recommend it. I didn't know you had a YT channel. I'm surprised I didn't notice it before... I think it's the YT algorithms that don't always do a great job of finding related videos for the subjects I follow. You look better than ever. Your lilac velvet top goes so well with your hair highlights.

Thank you గురువు గారు

❤Thank you so very much ❤

Thank you, this has been really useful for a mock-up I've been trying to fit!

Great idea for a video. Listening to how you work through a fitting was a wonderful review for me and reminded me of some things I should be paying more attention to (like taking a photo of a muslin with all the horizontal and vertical lines). I relate to Chris' comment about reaching a speed bump. Thank you, ladies, I look forward to your next video.

I am so happy to have learned this technique from you, Sarah! Thank you so much! I absolutely love your RUclips videos 😊🎉

Thanks for this wonderful video Sarah! Very well explained, lots of great tips! 😊🎉

Thank you, Sarah! As always, your instruction is very well done. The videography is done so we can REALLY see what you are explaining. Much appreciated.

Very educational. I have that same pattern and have always had to make changes because my bust measurement aligns with a 14 but my hip measurement is a 16. My waist measures 35 so I'm in-between sizes. Blending is always a must for me but I live with it. I learned something new from your video and that was reducing the hip size from the outside of the lines which I would have never thought to do. Thank you!
