I use the paper from Home Depot for everything too, including patterns! It is actually intended to be used to cover floors when painting. It’s a great, thick paper!
I used washi tape last time I copied a pattern and it was so much easier to work with because it peels away without tearing.
Hi Alissa
During the pandemic I used clear tablecloths to draft my patterns and, for me it worked out good because I’m fairly new to sewing and I needed to see my material and what I was cutting into.
Hi Alisa!! It really is amazing how long a roll of medical paper can last & I trace off all my patterns.. I also use a notebook to mark any changes, so I don’t forget for the next time….
💜💜💜🧵🧵🧵
Your drafting explanation is one of the best yet I've seen...that is my greatest weakness. I took 5 yrs of seeing classes in the 1970's. But we were only taught on preprinted patterns...I have all the skills except drafting...thank you
I love using gridded wrapping paper, and those .99 wooden yardstick from Lowe’s for the long straight lines!
For patterns I like to use film which is used for greenhouses. Transparent, easy to store (doesn't break) and can be bought in all construction stores.
I absolutely love your shirt. I got the same fabric and made a dress. I love it, it's so soft and comfy. Thanks for all the tips
It is, isn't it? I love it too!
Hi! Love your videos on TH-cam ❤ I'm from Sweden and I use a roll of NonWowen to my patterns. I think other countries call it Swedish tracing paper. It is made by 70% viscos and 30% polyester, and I love to use it. Sorry for my bad English!
Yes I have a notebook where I put my notes so I won't forget where I added what or take away whatever, it helps
Thrift store bed sheets are a cheap alternative for muslin.
I did find a good sale at the fabric store the other day on muslin. It was 45" wide though. It will work for garment sewing.
I made a top out of that same fabric. Love it!!!
I recently found your channel and really appreciate how accessible you make the process of pattern drafting! I was really intimidated at first, but now it doesn't seem so bad. Your list was very helpful. I have used gallon sized zip lock bags to corral pattern pieces or project notes before. It's an easy way to see what's inside and I can easily label it.
Thanks for the great advice 😊
Lovely video. Thank you for all your hard work
Great information 👍. Thank you. Peace and good fortune and good health to you and your family. 😀
I love your tips. Thank you.
Fab as ever
Some really useful tips.
I use my left over wrapping paper from Christmas as pattern paper! I always want to buy a new pretty design each year and then end up with leftover rolls, this way nothing is wasted!
Will definitely be taking the time to go through your videos. Do you have any suggestions on which pattern drafting books to buy please?
You are so awesomely practical! Thank you for your knowledge!!!
My pleasure, miss Rebecca!
Thank you for sharing this mam. Myself inspired alot from watching your tutorials and got new new tips while watching..I learnt alot of sewing projects with you thank you for that ! Again a love from India...
Every time I draft a pattern I store them under a rug to keep them flat and every time I add a pattern I scold myself saying …… really must sort all these patterns out in to specific patterns. But now its such a muddle I can hardly bring myself to do it.
Ziplock bags and just iron them. :)
Thank-You!!
Well I've found what I'm spending my birthday money on!
Your comments are always so funny! The comment about undoing all side seams and inserting pockets had me laughing, lol :)
@@ThoughtfulCreativity honestly I have had a really terrible week and seeing this has made my day ❤️
What if I wanted to take a face to face class. What or wear or who would you recommend? Don't misunderstand I love love love your videos! I really want to take a class ftf. Thank you for wonderful videos!
Cooking parchment would work
I always look forward to your videos. I am wondering if you could do a video on how to turn man's shirt into a woman's blouse ...
Do you have any tips for drafting swimware?
would you say pattern weight(?) are worth getting?
would you do more pattern making please?
Just posted a video last week, lol... and a week before that and a week before that :)
Do you make muslins for patterns intended for knit fabrics? If so, how do you adjust the muslin for the negative or positive ease?
Hello there! It depends, if it something I have done over the years and am familiar with the design - then no, if it is a new idea and I need to see how it will play out - then yes. I have a video about that on my channel it is called "knit bodice block + sleeve", there is also a Members Only video on that topic! In the knit bodice block video I explain negative ease and how I adjust for it, hope it helps!
@@ThoughtfulCreativity Yes - thanks!
I hope you won't make tutorial bustier. Or pattern of gown princess 🙏🙏🙏 Iam enjoy watching your video. Thank you so much 😘😘😘😘
Can you please recommend a book? I went to Amazon looking for books and it became very confusing when I was reading through reviews on many. It was overwhelming!
I think Alisa should write a book about this! 😊
@@Jen-CelticWarrior Agree! I think she should too! I would buy it immediately. I have a membership here and highly recommend it. She makes it easier and her personality is absolutely adorable. Her enthusiasm and passion for sewing is contagious.
Hi Alisa love watching you . Love the T-shirt you are wearing in this video. Can you let me know where you got the fabric?
Got it at Joann's and the tutorial on that t shirt is coming sometime soon ;) already filmed, just need to edit it.
@@ThoughtfulCreativity Thank you for letting me know got myself 2 yards. 😁
