Thank you very much for this tutorial, it is so easy to understand what to do with your instructions.
You're very welcome!
Your tutorials are outstanding. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and details on perfecting pattern drafting....step by step.❤
Thank you so much!
As said by others - great clear instructions, thank you. However, I have an observation / question about the pinning process of the seams.
During drafting the first action was drawing up the sides and centre back. Things like the thickness of the pen line introduce the first level of error at this point. Then the seam allowance was put in at a set distance from those lines. This allowance is where the second additional error creeps in. Note the second error margin is added to the first error margin.
Therefore, it is the cut seam that is the most accurate, not the allowance line.
But when pinning, it is the allowance lines which are used (sliding the front and back around so that the marked allowance lines match). A more accurate method would be to line up the cut edges.
Everyone teaches the lineup to be allowance line to allowance line (not just you). But a little understanding about how errors compound would indicate that the cut edges should be aligned, then pinned, the allowance line penned onto the fabric then the sewing done along the line. This would also be faster...
Your thoughts?
❤❤ you made it so easy
Another brilliant lesson, thank you, im looking forward to next week
More to come!
Love this. I have got as far as sewing up my Bodice block. When will you do the adjusting video??
Hi, this is a weekly series, you can catch up the whole series here; ruclips.net/p/PLlIwtAy1pUoSSLiIkPkDTHDpSgY1-i8Ae&si=k0q-BRQSs6K0lC7Q
Sorry, just heard it was "next week". Can't wait
The latest video is out today! With a new video in this series every week 🙂
I am so thankful for this video. I made a block pattern from a different source and couldn't figure out why the armholes and neck didn't fit as well. After hearing you say don't add seam allowance to the neck or the armholes, I realized I did just that when I cut out my bodice. I'm definitely subscribing and following. Thanks!
Could you draft a pattern for the top you are wesring.❤❤❤😂
I love it
Good V....good❤
Thanks so much again for a wonderful
Informative video. Will you be doing a video on how to implement a sleeve? 🤞🏼😁
Love this series!
Thanks so much ❤️
I am new to sewing, I intend to start sewing my own clothes. Your tutorials are amazing! Soo easy and so straightforward. Thank you so much! I would like to know what fabric you’re using to sew the bodice block please. And maybe where to purchase it from? Thank you 😋
Hello, the fabric is our light calico, you can find it at Minerva here; www.minerva.com/mp/1176499/minerva-core-range-light-weight-calico-fabric-cream
Thank you. 😊
Have made the toile up. Not too bad a fit but the back armhole has too much fabric. I have slightly round shoulders. Hope this will be covered on how to amend pattern. Love the videos.
We've a new video every week in this series, lots more to come on adjustments 🙂
I suggest adding a zipper to the back, as it is very hard pinning in the back ourselves.
❤
I love the tracing paper you use, can I ask what it is please x
Hi there! You can find the tracing paper and all the other tools used in this video by following the link in the description 😊
Love your blouse! 😍 May I ask what it is? Sorry if it was mentioned and I missed it😅
Thank you Chun, the blouse pattern is the Tudor Blouse by Stitch Witch Patterns, and it was sewn up using Liberty Lawn cotton a few years ago. I don’t believe the fabric is currently in print, but there are some very similar fabrics available on our website.
@@MinervaDotCom thank you kindly🥰🥰❤️❤️
