Hi Nino, thanks for the video. Q: if they fit the arm holes already, how to fix the problem for tight movement in the front and back around the sleeves? Thank you.
Hi Summer 2015, Hummm, good question...I can think of two ways -- One: I think that you need to enlarge the armhole (and of course with that comes adjusting the sleeve cap to fit the armhole, again). ...or Two: slash-and-spread the sleeve from the bottom up, from the wrist to the cap but DON'T cut the cap, keep the cap as is and then spread the sleeve thus adding fullness to the sleeve, and wrist, but NOT the cap. Hope this helps :)
Dear Sujan, ~ as far as I know the measurement of the chest is independent of the cap height, meaning that one does not influence the other (to the best of my knowledge).
Hi Carol, Thanks for your email. The size of the armhole would have to come from a pre-existing source, such as either a drape -- draping a bodice on a dress form -- or a bodice/pattern/sloper that you already have and are using. A sleeve has to fit into an armhole so... that armhole must come from somewhere... Hope this helps... Nino

If you have a dress form, why not just drape a sleeve that fits directly on the dress form, with the amount of ease desired in the cap? You can even just drape with paper; you don't need muslin.
Hi Linda,... Yes, you are correct: you can drape directly unto the dress form; the one challenge, sometimes, is that because there is no arm on the dress form, it it easier to first have a sleeve pattern (paper), cut it in fabric, and then pin it to the bodice that's on the dress form and make any adjustments. And yes, you can use (soft) paper as well, to pin to the form to see how it fits etc. the challenge with that would be the cap area, where it becomes a 3-dimentional shape and thus might be difficult to "shape" to fit the armhole. Anyway, there are several ways to "handle" a sleeve pattern.... Let me know if you have additional questions... at: ninovia@me.com

dear Sir can you make a vedio that how we calculate cap height on basis of chest
Dear Sujan, ~ as far as I know the measurement of the chest is independent of the cap height, meaning that one does not influence the other (to the best of my knowledge).
How do you measure or calculate the size of the arm hole opening at this stage ? Thank you.

How to draft suit
Hi Awal,
Drafting a suit is a very complex process, difficult to show in a 5 minute video.... but I'll work on it...
