Do you know your cut lines and your stitch lines?
Просмотров 370Год назад
Have you made this mistake in your pattern cutting? 👀 A really common mistake I see students making is using the cut line as a reference point instead of the stitch line. Why does this matter? Lots of reasons! Firstly, it gives you inaccurate measurements for body/circumference measurements and for seam measurements. Secondly when you use the cut line as a pivot point for slashing & sp...

So helpful ❤ thank you for sharing this with us.
You're welcome!
Excellent videos, thanks! One of my biggest frustrations with the Winifred Aldrich books is the way they include seam allowance in the drafted pattern, without an easy way of omitting it, or specifying clearly which line/measurement to use later when another block is used as a reference, as when drafting sleeves (maybe particularly so in earlier editions.) Coming back to pattern cutting after ~16 years, I'm a bit confused! When she gets you to measure lengths and mark points on the body section for drafting a sleeve, does she mean on the cutting line, not the stitching line? I assume so, because some of the point numbers do seem to match up with those original points. Hope you don't mind my asking advice here! Thanks again!
Hi lovely, which edition of her books are you using? As far as I understand all the drafts are NETT, so don't include seam allowance. But I've never used anything below 5th edition of her books so I'm not if it might be different in older editions! As a standard, I do all my drafting NETT and then add on seam allowance as a final step :) Hope that helps you!
@@projectpatterns Hello, thanks so much for your reply! That's interesting! Perhaps it's different in the women's wear books (I'm using Metric Pattern Cutting For Menswear, 5th edition, and also have 1st edition.) I've actually just found a note in the introduction about this, which I'd never noticed before, where she states that she's done the book in this way to prepare students to enter the industry, where they will often have to work on patterns derived from previous styles, which already include seam allowance, and so prepare them for the associates difficulties. Still frustrating for the hobbyist, with no intention of entering the industry, but makes a lot more sense. Anyway, drafting NETT would be my instinct too, but never mind. I'll just muddle my way through :D Thanks again, I really appreciate you taking the time.
Thank you x 100 for explaining this so well 🤗 I have been sewing for 50 years and have never understood sleeves. Can’t wait to watch the other videos.❤
You're so welcome! 😊I hope you enjoy the other videos too!
👌💕
Hi, this is a great video for making a new pattern. I would like to fix the same issue on my dress that is already made. The front is a single piece so waist darts aren't an option. Is there any way I can get rid of the gaping?
how did you determine the bicep width/ease?
Based on my experience working in the industry it's the standard amount of minimum ease I'd expect to find in a fitted sleeve 💕
@@projectpatterns what is the minimum?
@@febrezerocks Ideally you want between 4cm and 5cm, with 4cm being the minimum 😊
Not sure if you are aware of this tech issue with your video -- I wanted to save "How to Fix a Gaping Neckline" to watch and follow again, but it is marked as "for kids", so does not allow me to save (or comment directly on that video, so just picked another) -- just to let you know, in case you weren't aware. I saved the link for now in a note somewhere. thanks
Oh Gosh, thanks for letting me know! Definitely a little mistake on my part, but it's fixed now if you would like to save it for future 😊 It's here: ruclips.net/video/Zisbx6USMU4/видео.html Thanks again for letting me know! ❤
Very grateful! ❤
Thanks for watching! ❤
Wow it's so perfect i was searching the perfect video and randomly i found your video . I am so glad . Thankyou for making this type of video. Great going . ❤️❤️❤️😘
I'm so happy that you've found this video helpful! I hope you manage to draft the perfect sleeve now 😊
Thanks a lot, great video
You're welcome! I'm glad you found it helpful 😊
Really clear and helpful presentation!
How do I access the course?
Hi lovely! You can access the course here: www.project-patterns.co.uk/courses/pattern-cutting-essentials-pleats-gathers-and-frills/
Why did you add the 2cm?
i love uuuuuuuuuuuuu thanks!!!! from Argentina
Thanks, vey helpful!
Thank you for this video! If i got you right, you added the 1.2cm shoulder pad height to the bodice armholes and sleeve height of the basic sleeve you altered to the darted sleeve? And by original sleeve in the video, did you mean the basic sleeve or the one that has been raised by 1.2 cm of the shoulder pad height?
Great question! Yes, I added the shoulder pad height to my basic sleeve block before I started doing this darted amendment. Then when I bring in "the original" sleeve to help guide my pattern I bring in the sleeve with the added height already included.
You make it look so easy. As others have said, you have excellent teaching skills, both verbal and demonstration.
Thank you so much, you're very kind! I'm so happy that my videos are helping :)
Thank you. Very helpful x
Hello, I am enjoying watching your instructions on creating this capelet. Can you tell me the name of the plastic ruler you are using?
So much to do with this dress
Lovely ❤
U go so into detail. Thank u.
You're very welcome, thanks for watching!
Love this! Thank you! I have used two drafting systems that use the bust measurement to draft the sleeve but I have a smaller bust and rib cage relative to my bicep so the sleeve is always tight and then I have the brain pretzel of widening the sleeve while maintaining the fit into the armhole 😨 I have this book but have been too scared to try it! Seeing you work through it has helped immensely.
You're so welcome! Books can be a little intimidating sometimes, and having a video to go along with it always helps! Have you seen my other sleeve drafting video showing Dennic Chunman-Lo's method? It's a little simpler and sounds like it will help with your bicep issue!
@@projectpatterns I have seen that video too and bought the book lol! Just waiting for it. I didn't realize that might be better for my sleeve issue, thank you!
Such a helpful video Kathryn. The folding the pleats and tracing onto the paper blew my mind a bit. I always end up with really patchwork paper when slashing and spreading so I will definitely try this technique!
Yay, I'm so glad you found this helpful! I find it so frustrating having lots of layers and paper and tape too, this method really helps with that and makes the whole process much quicker! 😊
Soo how'd they figure this out? I'm really struggling even with normal mens t shirt sleeves
Kate thank u so much for the brilliant tutorials. An excellent and very knowledgeable teacher.
Thank you Mariam! You're very welcome. Thanks for watching and your kind words 💖
Thank u so much. Explanations are excellent. Love that u give the measurements.
You're very welcome 😊 ❤️
Great advice thanks 🎉. Do you always use the corrected toile to cut out your garment?
You're welcome! I transfer my pinned/cut/drawn amendments to my pattern then use my pattern to cut out my final fabric 😊
The presenter needs to get the tutorial IN FOCUS otherwise it's pretty well useless.
Chew our seams 😂😂 you said true but its written chew 😅
what do you do when the grain line doesn't line up with the salvage properly, ie. it slants towards or away from the salvage? I'm noticing this happening more and more these days. (I'm assuming it's a quality issue..) do you line up with the grain line you can see or with the salvage?
Unfortunately this happens when the fabric is woven incorrectly and the yarns twist around. It's so frustrating when cutting! If you can clearly see that the grain is off (maybe there's a stripe or obvious direction woven in the fabric) then try to cut your pieces as on grain as they possibly can be, even if it means going a bit off from the selvedge edge. It makes cutting more tricky but will mean your garment hangs more like it should :)
@@projectpatterns that's good to know, thank you! Luckily I had been following the grain, not the salvage, but i was wondering if I was being too particular 😂 We only have 1 fabric store in my town, and I've increasingly noticed the quality deteriorating overall. Some of the fabric was even dirty (and permanently stained), and one had cigarette butt holes in it. It's very frustrating, but not a lot I can do about it but inspect the fabric carefully before buying. Thanks so much!
At first glance I thought that was a giant cheese wheel 🤭 This will definitely help for when I wanna work on projects again though thanks :]
🤣If only! You're welcome, I hope this helps you get more accurate with your cutting!
Omg this was so helpful!!! I was actually wondering version which book was better ( accurate). You explained it so well.
Ah yay! I'm so glad you found this helpful! 😁Both books are amazing, and have different strengths, I love the Winifred bodice block draft, but prefer Dennic's sleeve draft 🙂
😑 "Promosm"
Do you line any of the frills.
How would you engineer the under arm seam without the frill?
You could finish it off in a number of ways. But binding or bagged out with a facing would be my preference!
Is this fabric a knit Kate ?
This is non-stretch, but you could do something similar with a stretch fabric!
This is great
Love all the cape designs. Like Charlotta, I am a big Outlander fan and not just for the kilts. Hope you enjoy watching the show.
😂Thank you Natalie!
Do you have a course about adding the placement fuses and shoulder pads? I would definitely pay to learn!
Unfortunately I don't have a course teaching this at the moment, but I offer one to one private lessons and we could certainly cover this :)
HOLA, BUENAS TARDES, ME GUSTÒ MUCHO TU TÈCNICA, ME INTERESA MUCHO ACCEDER A ALGÙN CURSO EN LÌNEA QUE TENGAS, POR FAVOR PODRÌAS DARME INFORMACIÒN PARA PARTICIPAR EN EL
Extremely educational ❤❤❤ thank you 😊 keep uploading videos
Needed to know how to draft a circle but wow! Got a surprise pattern idea and ended up buying a notcher, which I never knew existed!!! Haha! Thank you!
I'm glad I could help inspire you Cate! :)
Is this applicable to men’s sleeves especially the low, medium and high sleeve head height Or for the men’s the divider numbers are different?
This is absolutely applicable to men's sleeves too :)
Is it the bicep - bicep point or the sleeve height that determines a small armhole, or that has to do with drafting of the armscye?
The size of your armhole is decided in the bodice drafting process, then you would draft your sleeve based on the measurement of your armhole, bicep and sleeve head height.
This is great. Can you do the same with a skirt?
You definitely can! This is the method I use to draft any type of drawstring on all garments 😊
@@projectpatterns Thanks so much, I'm definitely going to try it!
thank you so much it is really useful information for me
You're very welcome! 😊
What a precious content! I'm fascinated with all this knowledge! Thank u for sharing this with us. 😍😍
