@Emily Rosenzweig - You are most welcome. This process works very well. I also show another option you might want to watch - splitting the back pattern horizontally - also works exceedingly well. See - th-cam.com/video/TLxkBTbRtZk/w-d-xo.html
You probably dont care but does anyone know a way to log back into an instagram account..? I stupidly forgot my password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me.
@Kohen Krew i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im in the hacking process atm. I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
My problem is that I have excess fabric at the back of the neck, and sometimes at the shoulder blade area. What adjustment should i use for these problems?
@Chris Reeve - it sounds like the back of the pattern is too long and wide across the back. But without specific photos of the issue(s), it's more challenging to pinpoint the problem(s) and offer a specific solution. I support all Sure-Fit Designs customers.
thank u very much for ur prompt reply. In our country garments are customised by taking measurements on body but when i read ur superfit guidelines i try to use them by observing body type of the person and try to give my best. so thank u so ..much.u r really the best.
very true. I'm from abroad and have studied pattern making but not deep. This channel has changed my life literally. It's impressive how fast we can correct problems. unfortunately I my teacher was not that good and I gave up as my projects were horrible. Tks so much for all your teachings!
How do you determine the amount to increase the back and also the shoulder dart??? I have both of these and have to do any adjustments by myself. Thanks
There is no tried and true way to determine how much you will need to curve CB or to add the width of the shoulder dart. I would say to begin with a dart that is 1/2 - 5/8" wide and that will automatically determine the amount that is added to the length of CB. If you need a CB seam, then you can draw a gentle curve with the Designing Stylus. You will simply need to try a test and see how much more/less you need for your body shape. Kindly, Glenda
If you don't have a back opening then you won't have a curved CB seam. With a rounded back, it's generally best to curve the seam and depending on the style you can have a CB opening.

I dont want a dart, is there any other recommendations
VERY helpful!!
thank you
Hille Veldbloem - you are most welcome and thanks for your feedback.
No, the rounding, in this situation, is in the back body only. Kindly, Glenda
mam will you clear my doubt why the front armhole in a girl dress is deeper then the back armhole curve
Do you have to add length to the front to match the extra length in the back?
I truly appreciate this lesson. I do not have anyone who can measure me and I have the upper rounded back. Can I measure it myself? Thank you. Gi

Would a 1.5" adjustment distort things too much?
Deb Damico - if you mean a 1.5" opening at CB - though I have never tried this, I would suspect it wouldn't work too well.
Yes that is what I meant. I guess I'll try splitting it up and doing 5/8 at center back and another adjustment for shoulder blade.
Does this work on a regular basic t-shirt pattern?
drawing rounded curve willbe suitable only for the dresses which has back opening what if no back opening ?
If you don't have a back opening then you won't have a curved CB seam. With a rounded back, it's generally best to curve the seam and depending on the style you can have a CB opening.
We can do if ur dress is not opening even cause we always have cb in our pattern no matter ur dress is front open or side open
