Oh my goodness. After all the videos I’ve seen with forward shoulders, I never have seen one for the shoulder bone being forward, (which is what I have). Thank you so much for helping me with this!
@Aunt Mayme - you are most welcome...thanks for your feedback.
Thank you so much. This demonstration was crystal-clear and I love your manner of teaching. Now I know exactly what I need to do and how to do it - - couldn't ask for better instruction that!
I think I prefer the pattern work shown using the sloping table vs on the wall. But either is good since you do the explaining. You know what you are doing and do an excellent job attempting to share that knowledge with others.
@JoJo Sewist - this was one of our earlier videos when we didn't have the upside down camera...so the image is slightly sloped. Sometimes the demos lend themselves to the wall work and other times I find it easier to use the over head camera and flat table...all depends what I'm teaching.
Thank you. I have just realized I have that problem. I love watching your tutorials.
It is pure pleasure.💐
I've been searching for this information for hours and finally found it! Thanks so much. I've been drawing the diagrams in my notebook for future reference!
Carmen, You are most welcome. I'm glad it was of benefit to you. There are all kinds of informative fitting videos in the surefitdesigns Learning Center in the Video Library. Make sure you check them out too.
Kindly,
Glenda
surefitdesigns Thanks so much for your reply! I'll be sure to check out the other fitting videos. Once again, a wonderfully clear and professional video!
Thanks a lot for this video. As a matter of fact I do need to make 2 more changes in my pattern due to sort of a "hollow" chest that comes along with this stupid shoulder bone wich sticks out 🙄 I need to scoop the front armhole out a little bit, right after the new shoulder point, and also need to make curve which goes under the arm prominenter. Corresponding changes have to be made at the sleeve.
thank you thank you thank you. exactly what Im searching for.
Ah ha! That is what I did intuitively however I'm so happy to find this to see it for sure. Thank you. I wasn't sure of what I was doing, so I fussed with it probably more than I needed to.
You are most welcome. I'm glad it was so helpful.
Excuse me for being so chatty :) I have just basted my bodice with corrected shoulder lines and it fits perfectly! Armholes, bust darts - everything! Thank you very much!
I'm so glad to hear this information was of such benefit to you.
Olga Orde how did you determine how much to change the shoulder seam line?
Great video. I'm also having this issue with the Tilly and the Buttons Indigo dress. I need to move the shoulder seam about an inch forward. But just at the shoulder joint. Thank you so much.
@Emma Langhorne - You are most welcome...so glad to hear this info was of benefit.
Thanks for your help
Thank you for this video
Very helpful
thanks a lot !!!
Oh my goodness God, almighty google who suggested your video when I was searching for how to resolve my fitting problem! Yes, forward thrusting shoulder bone I have!
I'm happy to hear this video of was of assistance for you.
Best tutorial ever.
You are most welcome - I'm glad the information was of benefit.
@@surefitdesigns I have been trying to solve this problem for two years now, and it kept me from sewing fitted bodices, that I love so much. Believe me when I say I've sewed dozens of muslins. I came close with some (mainly from Burda), but I didn't have the breakthrough I got today. So yes, it was of huge benefit. Also, you're a great teacher :)
@@ringweThanks so much for your feedback. I'm so glad this video was of value to you.
Hi Glenda, you saved me after weeks of wondering how to fix the forward shoulder problem! One question: do I need to change (deepen the armhole?). Thanks!
Lavinia Monforte - No, the underarm depth remains the same. You only need to move the sleeve cap notch forward the same amount that you moved the shoulder point forward.
Finally! I have found out what is wrong with me. I always thought I was round shouldered and was getting choked and disappointed with things I made. Thankyou so much. Such a simple solution
Question: if I am doing a batwing sleeve do I carry the decrease at front and increase at rear for the full length of the sleeve? Thanks so much
Jayay15 - thanks for your comment. Yes you would carry these modifications into the length of the sleeve.
@@surefitdesigns Thankyou!
In moving the seam notch forward, would the underarm body seam then not set in line with the sleeve seam ? I know it doesn't matter, you aren't walking around with your arms over your head, just wondering. Thanks!
@KA Brewer - This process doesn't affect the position of the underarm seam.
Your explanation is quite clear. I have a rounded back (a so called buffalo hump😕) sloping shoulders (I saw your video in that) ánd forward shoulders I think. I need to add quite a bit of fabric on my back bodice, about 1.5”. Can that be done with this technique too? And do I need to combine the forward shoulder adjustment with the sloping shoulder part if that is at all possible?
Yes this will help, but also read this article as this is what you'll need - www.sfdlearningcenter.com/RoundedUpperBack.html
I’m eagerly awaiting the arrival of my first SFD dress kit. I’ll probably need to do this alteration; my shoulder seams on my RTW shirts ride toward my back, not on my shoulder line.
How does one determine the amount to change the seam line? I’m thinking, put on the completed test bodice, put a piece of tape on the actual top of the shoulder line, and measure the distance from that to the sewn shoulder seam line.🤔🤷🏻♀️
Hi April, yes after sewing the test bodice straight off the master pattern, you'll be able to see how much you need to move the shoulder seam forward. But also realize that having a (slightly) rounded back can also cause garments to pull toward the back. Sometimes you might also need a rounded back tune-up. Also, just for future reference, with questions like this, please email me directly at info@surefitdesigns.com as I always check my emails but not always do for the RUclips comments. thanks...Glenda Sparling
Glenda Sparling Thank you very much. 🙏🏼. Duly noted regarding further questions!😊
Hello! Where can i get the sure fit design book?
www.surefitdesigns.com If you need parts to an already owned set, email info@surefitdesigns.com
Hello, would this work in reverse if the shoulder seams is coming forward? Normally I don’t have issues with shoulder seams but this pattern I am musling, the shoulder seams are coming forward to the front. The pattern doesn’t say anything about the seams coming forward to the front. Thank you in advance.
Rena Siscoe - Yes it sure should - it would be the exact opposite.
I only have one forward shoulder so is it better to create a right and a left sleeve ? Currently I cut all my bodices out on single layer
Yes, you definitely need to create an asymmetrical pattern with a different right and left side. And yes, you need to cut fabric in a single layer.
@@surefitdesigns Hi Glenda I did the forward adjustment on bodices and made a toile but I found that when I moved the sleeve notch it caused the sleeve to hang incorrectly so I put it back to the original and it fitted perfectly, just wanted to tell you just in case anyone else had the same issue 🤗
I am confused at which one i should do. When i wear the dress the whole shoulder seam goes atleast 5/8” back. Do i need do the first adjustment you should or the 2nd one which is forward shoulder adjustment.
@pinsandneedles x - if the entire shoulder seam is being pulled backward, then you need to move the entire shoulder seam forward, not just the shoulder point.
@@surefitdesigns ahhh thank you. I didnt realised i made a typing mistake. Yes, unfortunately i made the indigo tillys dress with 3mtr fabric and the dress keep sliding up to my neck. When i look side way my whole shoulder seams seems to be more on my back then at my shoulder. Is there a way to know this problem before we cut onto the fabric?
@@pinsandneedlesx8825 there is no way to tell on a commercial pattern. With Sure-Fit Designs your personal fit is worked out ahead of designing any garment. So when you design a new project, that alteration is already built in and the problem no longer exists. You can also use your Sure-Fit Designs sloper for helping you to recognize fit issues with commercial patterns.
@@surefitdesigns where can i find the sure fit designs sloper
@@pinsandneedlesx8825 you can purchase the Sure-Fit Designs slopers here - surefitdesigns.com/collections/fitting-sewing-pattern-kits - the master patterns come within the kits and it's from the master patterns that you draw your sloper.
Is there anything one can do for this issue for things like leotards, undies, leggings or tights? I have this posture and everything always feels too short at the crotch, but Going up a size doesn’t help or it creates other issues.
I’ve honestly given up on pants altogether, they’re either terribly uncomfortable or baggy. But I need something to go under dresses and skirts T_T
Hi, the effort is apreciable but the way you see the problem is wrong: a forward shoulder is a sick shoulder that need a correction. The shoulder need to be fixed, not the shirt.
