I am sooooo happy to have found this. I went to a sewing class many years ago but I have forgotten how to draft a pattern for a bodice. I noticed one slight difference though. Our instructor said we had to add 1/4-1/2 inch below point F but only for the front pattern, the reason being that children’s tummies tend to stick out a bit. Thanks for sharing your skill!
Bravo ,you made drafting easier for me...I follow your tutorial and I did it ... I am beginner in sewing and I just wanna say thank you, you're a big help 💕
Beautiful work. I have one question. Because toddlers tend to have baby fat on their stomach, what should be done when the front length is 11 inches (to accommodate tummy); but the back length is only 8 1/2 inches?
Oh my gosh, I am so happy. This is the closest I have come to understanding how to draft a bodice. I thank you so much for making this very understandable. Now I will have to take some time to write out the instructions and how to execute each step. Again thank you so much for making this understandable.
Your tutorial is so clear... This is always what I wanted to learn. May you grow from strength to strength.. Thanjs fkr sharing and all the best for the future 🙏
Thank you so much for your clear instructions. Now I know how to take measurements correctly. My little grand daughter is four. Little ones don’t keep still to measure. So I used your values and made a dress for her. Many thanks and much love. 🙏❤️👌Malini
I love this drafting video , Thank you so much I love it i hope to see one for drafting for adults i would be so happy ..Thank you again i plan to follow your videos.
Hi! Thank you for watching my video. I haven't done a baby dress. But the process can be the same. I have link for the standard sizes for children's wear... drive.google.com/file/d/1EYvpbhsRN6TQnUqxu0y4ney8_Ymqo_Cz/view?usp=drivesdk
hi ..all is good ..but you never follow the 90* Degree angle to any where ,,,main think is you taken arm hole measurements are wrong ...we need curve ARM HOLE is '' at HALF ,,but taken from CB NECK LINE ,,,plz consider this point ...
great explanation from the very start of how to measure and how to draw it on the paper with pictures that is what i needed as a beginner thank you very much
What the heck another wasted piece of paper where are you getting the 3.5 down measurement from, and you say for a child however your bicep measurement is double that of my childs there c and d are the same something's off here
where did you get the a to f measurement of 2 and a half inches? i am trying to make a dress for a toddler. really hard to figure this out universally, seems to be size specific, but what size?
Hi! @Judith D'souza😊 A -C is based on standard measurement for 5-6 yr.old. Line C is for the chest width . But I found anorther way of getting it. Chest width line can be the midway of shoulder slope and the bust line. 😉
Once I saw your first minutes I decided to subscribe on your channel ...your fabulous, i love the way you explain by writing the details and steps and giving us pictures to understand. Thank you
Just checking. This is without seam allowance? Also, what can we use if no french curve? This is the best video. Im going to subscribe and save. Thank you.
Thank you so much 🎉🎉🎉may God bless you I don't know how many I've watched but this one was the best❤I don't know how to thank u but my problem now is that I'm making a dress going down how to cut it without joining it at the hip
Very nice and clear explanation. Wow.. Is this pattern for sleeves ir sleeveless?? Can i do it for both ?? For the this bodice pattern can u share how to cut the sleeves?
Oh my gosh, I am so happy. This is the closest I have come to understanding how to draft a bodice. I thank you so much for making this very understandable.

@@nicetosew1668 Hi, thanks for the insightful video. By the way, Ive taken a look on the sizing chart, and found that the girls' back waist length is so long in inches, should it be in (cm)? Thanks a lot.

This is what i wanted to learn. Very well explained. ❤️
thank you for this video. where did the 3.5"(point C) measurement come from? Thanks.
I wld like to knw that too, that was d only thing I didn't understand
So you have to leave 3.5 in from shoulder to measure chest width B and this is where the 3.5 plays its role.
Bravo ,you made drafting easier for me...I follow your tutorial and I did it ... I am beginner in sewing and I just wanna say thank you, you're a big help 💕
WOW! Your instructions are wonderful! You speak clearly and slowly and go step by step! THANK YOU!🙏🏼
Why at k did you measure 1/4 upward? Thanks
You are a blessing for sharing this pattern. Millions thanks to you❤️ G-d bless!!!!
Question from A to C where’s that measurement coming from?
Hi does this include 1/2 inch seam allowance? Thank you so much for your step by step video! Very comprehensible!
Hi! Thank for watching my video.
Seam allowance is not yet included. 😊

Thank you so much for this❤️👍🏻
Used this to make my son a costume for Halloween, it came out great! Thank you so much, your instructions were so easy to follow :)
Why is the bust and waist divided by 4 ? Thanks
Because when cutting the fabric, you will fold it into 4 to get equal pieces.
Your tutorial is so clear... This is always what I wanted to learn. May you grow from strength to strength.. Thanjs fkr sharing and all the best for the future 🙏
How do you get 3 from A to C

@@veenapurohit9809 Joann Fabric. Michaels. Some Walmart Supermarkets. Amazon.
Sorry to ask i really don’t Understand the A to C
@suseelaramakrishnan6474 A to C is for the line for shoulder slope. That is why it was extended outward.
OMG 😰😰 YOU explained it so well thank you so much 🙏I spent one year in a fashion school and I don't know anything...thank you so much

My dear thank you so much for this pattern , please make one video that how we can increase or decrease size by age. ❤️
This is so great! Thank you. To cut the pattern from cloth, I assume that I add seam allowance to all dimension?
I have a question what measurement is for AD I know it's bust measurement but is it the full bust measurement or is just half of the bust measurement
What the heck another wasted piece of paper where are you getting the 3.5 down measurement from, and you say for a child however your bicep measurement is double that of my childs there c and d are the same something's off here
where did you get the a to f measurement of 2 and a half inches? i am trying to make a dress for a toddler. really hard to figure this out universally, seems to be size specific, but what size?

Thank you for sharing this video, but may i ask, how do you pattern a basic pant for children?
Can you share which French curve and hip curve to purchase from amazon? Too many options and variations to choose from it’s confusing
The first center line, what is the length you are marking with the L ruler? And what size/age is this vest for?
Hat's for your video. Can please send me the link for drafting a simple straight dress, with short sleeves for adults ? Thanks.
