You are welcome and for the pleat… you will only stitch it as you normally do a pleat from the front to the back. You always stitch a pleat down at like the mid point. Please also do watch the part 2 of the video because I showed how to stitch it as well. Will leave a link here for you
Hello and thank you for watching my video…. The pleat has to go all the way from the front to the back but if you have a joining at the shoulder, you can have the pleat just in front 👍
Gudpm ma'am! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us here! May God Almighty continue to enrich your pocket & ur knowledge. But please ma can you please make a tutorial on a single pleated shoulder enclosed at the waist line & attaching a long sleeve to dress. Thk ú once again
Thank you….. if you want to add zipper to it, then you will have add 1” allowance at the back and of course it means you will have to open up the back .
@@jimohabisola3157 Hello Abisola…. No you don’t need to add a zipper at the shoulder. You just add allowance of 1” at the back and split it open to add your zipper. The should still remains the same.
All that measurement to pocket point also depends on height but the easiest way to do that is …… whatever your half length measurement is ( from shoulder to waist), measure down between 1 to one and a half inches to get your pocket point.
Definitely yes you can add. I used the paper because I was teaching it as using the pattern drafting method …. So if you are cutting free hand directly on fabric please add your allowance for pleat directly in fabric too.
My measurements are : Bust -45 Waist - 38 Hip - 48 Now I divided my bust by 4 (45/4=11.5) and I added 1 to 2” to that. Waist divided by 4 plus 1.5” Hip divided by 4 plus 1 to 2” and if I want the hip part fitted, I only add half inch. Finally, if it gets confusing, just use your exact measurements and then add zip at the back
Well done dear. God will continue to bless you. I have not watch you vedio but read through the comments to know if to watch or not, as the way you respond, some with apologies had made me love your channel, keep it up. I'm a new subscriber.
Very helpful but apart from the slit allowances did you add Sewing allowance for ease.& did you add allowance on the hem side or you use same hip measurement down to hem side during your basic pattern drafting.?Will you shape your armhole if you want your sleeve fitted. thanks.
Yea I added ease allowance since I did not make it as a fitted wear. For my standard ease where I don’t want the outfit to be too big, I add 1” ease at bust, 1.5” ease at waist and 1” ease at hip which I took all the way down because there are slits at the sides but if there were no slits, I will extend the hem to be more than the hip. For the armhole yea if it has to take sleeves, then it has to be shaped to fit the sleeves.
Thanks for sharing this beautiful tutorial.🙏👍 Am not very clear on how you did the area where you slashed to the sleeve area and because of the white paper. I’ll look at it again to see if I can get it right. Thank you 🙏 👍
Thanks ma for this ma. My client want slit infront and the pleat to stop at the hip line with pocket will I add 1.5 to 2 inches to her body measurements hope it will not be too free at the down part of the dress.Pls ma I need urgent attention on this ma
Can you please chat me up on WhatsApp so if I have to call you to give a proper answer to your question, I will do so. Makadel WhatsApp number is 08037134216
Thank u ma. Love d pattern method. Wanted to ask u, since it is a bit fitted, what ease or allowance was added to ur measurement since there is no zip?
I added 1.5 to bust after dividing my actual measurement. Eg bust 40 divided by 4 = 10 then 10” + 1.5= 11.5 I will use 11.5” for the quarter bust I added 2” to the waist and added 1.5 to the hip
I understand but u if u can start from d beginning of ur drafting it would have make sense, wat makes it fitted gangan? What part of d body do u used to fold it and how many inches allowance do u added to it?
Hello Evelyn..... You know because I was making it to be loose when I drafted the pattern before alteration o..... The original body measurements was what I used and added between 1.5" to 2" to the bust waist and hips so it will be free. In the case that you want it fitted with zip at the back, you can add only 1/2(half)" to those measurements.
@@jumokedebby2087 Hello…. I used all the normal body measurements but I added 1” for bust example….. bust 44 divided by 4 = 11 then to get the bust measurement to use. I do the quarter of the bust which is now 11 + 1” for ease and plus 1” for sewing allowance which means 11+ 1 + 1 = 13” for bust Waist 40 divided by 4 = 10 + 1.5” for ease + 1 for sewing allowance Hip 50 divided by 4 = 12.5 + 1” for ease + 1” for sewing allowance At the extend it so the person can walk well and of course you will have side slits. For the slash and spread you can use between 6 to 8 depending on how wide you want your pleat but I used 6”
You can make this and separate the sleeve .... Meaning you will attach the sleeve back to the dress or cut the sleeve together with the dress as well like I did. I choose it that way because I wanted the sleeve like a kimono. Please do ask me anything where you don't understand and I will take time to explain here. Thank you

Thank you so much 🙏
Thanks for sharing plz like how many yards can be enough for this
Depending on your size, between 4 to 4yds will be enough.
Thanks so much Ma, but dose it mean we are going to sow (match) the pleat at the front of the material.

All that measurement to pocket point also depends on height but the easiest way to do that is …… whatever your half length measurement is ( from shoulder to waist), measure down between 1 to one and a half inches to get your pocket point.
Most we attach the piece of paper??can't we add up the pleating allowance in the fabric??
Definitely yes you can add. I used the paper because I was teaching it as using the pattern drafting method …. So if you are cutting free hand directly on fabric please add your allowance for pleat directly in fabric too.
Please is the sleeves cut together? Or cut separately? That's where I don't understand
It’s a cut together sleeves
Please can adire Kampala be used for this style
Absolutely yes, it can.
I got lost from the slashing area I wasn’t seeing 😂 and the vid was getting so interesting 😢
I am really sorry about that, guess didn’t notice it. Will take that into consideration on the next one 🙏
Pls ma'am I didn't get your measurement. I don't really understand how you made it fitting
My measurements are :
Bust -45
Waist - 38
Hip - 48
Now I divided my bust by 4 (45/4=11.5) and I added 1 to 2” to that.
Waist divided by 4 plus 1.5”
Hip divided by 4 plus 1 to 2” and if I want the hip part fitted, I only add half inch.

You can have the pleat only in front of you want but the style has it from the front all the way to the back

For the ease to her body measurements add, 2” is fine but I hope you know that that 2” has nothing to do with the pleat allowance
Please ma can I put lining on it
Yes you can please...... And also it can depend on the type of fabric you are using or your clients preference as well.
Thank u ma. Love d pattern method. Wanted to ask u, since it is a bit fitted, what ease or allowance was added to ur measurement since there is no zip?
I added 1.5 to bust after dividing my actual measurement. Eg bust 40 divided by 4 = 10 then 10” + 1.5= 11.5 I will use 11.5” for the quarter bust
I added 2” to the waist and added 1.5 to the hip
Will the pleats also go behind ma
Yes please.... The pleats go all the way from front to the back.
The white paper on the white cutting board is not easy for most of us to see.
Sincere apologies about that🙏 duly noted and will change that the next time.
I understand but u if u can start from d beginning of ur drafting it would have make sense, wat makes it fitted gangan? What part of d body do u used to fold it and how many inches allowance do u added to it?

@@evelynusman1103 thank you loads too for believing in me 🙏🥰
@@MAKADELFashionSchool ma the 1.5 to 2 inches allowance, is it for the ease only or for both the ease and seam allowances ma
@@jumokedebby2087 Hello…. I used all the normal body measurements but I added 1” for bust example….. bust 44 divided by 4 = 11 then to get the bust measurement to use. I do the quarter of the bust which is now 11 + 1” for ease and plus 1” for sewing allowance which means 11+ 1 + 1 = 13” for bust

Hip 50 divided by 4 = 12.5 + 1” for ease + 1” for sewing allowance
At the extend it so the person can walk well and of course you will have side slits.
For the slash and spread you can use between 6 to 8 depending on how wide you want your pleat but I used 6”
Ma, isn't it better to separate the sleeve since you have a sleeve length of abt 12 inches??
