Hi and thanks for the video. If I understand correctly front hip is h/4-3/4, and the back is same h/4-3/4(overlap) but extends by 3/4, meaning the back is h/4. Combining the total front and back waist you get 2x(h/4-3/4)+2xh/4 which equals h-1.75. The hip will be 1.75 less. Is this not a mistake

[@AndrewleneMoses]

The back is hip divided by 4 plus 3/4 inch. When you add the front and back measurements you should get the total hip measurement.

[@e.johnson8394]

Being a hippie person myself I love how you made the extra allowance for the hip for the back of the skirt.very nice tutorial I really learned a lot thank you

[@LatterrainDesigners]

Thanks ma'am for understandable teaching

[@chrisgabelogeneke7959]

Thank you very much ma. God bless you for sharing this knowledge in Jesus Christ name amen.

[@ebereihemefor7072]

God bless you ma for this tutorial ❤❤❤

[@AndrewleneMoses]

It would help if you mentioned the half-inch seam allowance to be attributed on the fabric at the waistline when transferring the pattern to the fabric.

[@bettyennin6335]

Thanks for this detailed tutorial!

[@theskirtlady7890]

Thank you so much, I always wondered how to shape my pattern pieces for my buttocks.

[@abigailatooko6586]

Oh my God you,re doing a good job,ur tutorial is not jst helpful bt very explicit and straight to the point.Infact I enjoyed,ur teaching.Pls can you do atutorial on the protruding buttock on a fabric?Thank you♥️💋💋

[@janeagbayeogor5979]

Thanks for sharing. You are good in your field

[@marciawilson7171]

I really loved this tutorial but shouldn’t the 3/4 removed from the front be added to the 12 3/4 in the back such that the original hip measurement of 51 is achieved?

[@otyscouture]

Yes. It must be added that is what i did. On the hip measurements only.

[@Nuliqa]

The measurement for the back pattern is short by 3/4 ". Back hip line measurement should have been 12 3/4" plus the 3/4" taken away from the front pattern.

[@otyscouture]

If you noticed any error pls correct it when drafting yours. The idea is to show us how to achieve a protruding buttocks for the back bodice of a skirt or a gown with zipper. Thanks!

[@graceodeibea9504]

Thank you so much
God bless you 🙏❤️

[@buterabernard9053]

Thank so much your good teacher

[@folasadeafolabi8925]

Thanks for the tutorial but I'll like to bring to yr notice that your hip measurement is not complete. You ought to measure the normal 12.75 for the back piece before adding the 0.75 at the zipper side. Pls check again. Thanks

[@igwedelight3843]

God bless u ma'am for d points released
More grace

[@chuchusaoriente6717]

Hola corazón! Me encantan tus tutorial. . Pone subtitulo español latino

[@protopiannelson5]

Thank you so much!! 😍😍 I've been wondering how to do this for ages because my hem line always gave out skew due to my butt area🤭

[@otyscouture]

I'm glad you find the tutorial helpful. You're most welcome.

[@njokuchidinma9656]

👍

[@babybumpaftertr]

I love this!!! Will an Ankara fabric stretch without a lining?

[@otyscouture]

Ankara fabric doesn't stretch

[@babybumpaftertr]

@@otyscouture ok. I made a skirt and a pair of pants and the fabric “grew” as the day went on. It was much looser on me at the end of the day.

[@rosemaryogechi7289]

Thanks so much
If I'm making six piece or Aline how do I go about it
Cos at d heming or d vent u mark 2inches

[@otyscouture]

For six pieces skirt you'll not use the covered slit method, whatever measurements u use for ur zipper allowance just measure it from the waist to the hem straight down.

[@chinenyeezema1982]

Thanks alot. I want to see how you sew the pencil skirt.

[@otyscouture]

Check the next video you'll see the sewing of the skirt

[@chrisgabelogeneke7959]

Please ma am i to remove 3/4 from both front and back hip or from only the front? Thank you ma

[@AwalaOlubankeAnike]

The measurements of this skirt hip will not be equal to 51
If the front is 24,the back should be 27.
Please calculate that for me
Well-done

[@nyadzisaisixpence7585]

If i want to use elastic waistband,do i have to use my 1/4hip minus 3/4"as my waist and hip measurements

[@level2456]

Thanks for the video. If you also have bodice pattern, can you join them directly and form a dress. Or will you need adjustments on the waist?

[@otyscouture]

Yes you will need adjustment on d waist. The bodice waist with the skirt waist must be d same so that it can fit each other when sewing.

[@level2456]

Thanks for the reply. My concern is that pencil skirt patterns curve down to centre front and CB. Whereas bodice blocks aren't, in particular the back pattern.

[@femstimi6772]

Thank you ma for d tutorial pls can u make d sewing video of it thank you

[@otyscouture]

I've already made the sewing video check the next post on my channel.

[@nyadzisaisixpence7585]

So the back pattern should be 12 3/4plus 3/4from the front pattern

[@otyscouture]

Yes

[@okaforstella1130]

[@cynthiachineye2015]

Thanks ma

[@amarachinancy4020]

Thank u very much ma

[@ruthjoseph6936]

Each time am drafting a pencil skirt for a plus size person d back will be shorter than the front, what could be the cause

[@otyscouture]

I guess it's because of the buttocks at the back. There's a way u can go about it, buy increasing the length at the back bodice with either 1"or 1.5".

[@rosemaryogechi7289]

What if we don't want opening

[@otyscouture]

You'll not use this covered slit method. Just measure ur zipper allowance from the waist straight down to the hem.

[@utchykfashion]

Cld you pls sew with this pattern.

[@otyscouture]

Yes i have sewn with this pattern. Check the next tutorial after this one. Part2; how to sew neat finishing with lining.

[@aoshadon]

Can you please do a pants pattern please
