UPDATE: my sizing now includes XXS-3XL.
I am also now grading the height by 5mm - every size is 5mm longer.
I also now name ALL my seams and notches to make it more beginner friendly.
Love it, thanks for sharing. I would definitely be interested in seeing how you do pants as well.
literally the best grading tutorial on the internet
This has to be the best and easiest tutorial I've seen on grading, I'll definitely love to see how your grade trousers and sleeves. Thank you
I was actually searching for this exact video earlier! Thank you so much ❤️
you’re really my favourite content creator for sewing!! your TH-cam & ig are just gold. love you!! ❤️
This helped me tremendously. Thanks for all you do for us. It is always so helpful. And we totally appreciate it. Thanks again.
Such a great video! Thank you so much for sharing this method, you just saved me loads of time! And yes, I for one would love to see how you grade pants! :)
Thank you so much for this video, this is extremely helpful ! I would love to see how you grade pants next ! 😊 once again, thank you, I’m learning so much with your video
Loved this video! I can’t wait to try it out myself. I’m really interested in more video’s like this ☺️
i really love your videos. thanks for putting so much effort into this. ♥
I haven’t even watched the video yet but wanted to say thank you so much! I’ve been waiting for this video so bad since the how to digitalize patterns video and I’m so excited to see this one!
Glad to hear that! Hope it was nice 🥰
Thank you for sharing!!! Such a helpful video 🙏
This video is so helpful thank you! I would love to see also the pants sizing tutorial! 🤗
Oh my god. I was looking for this information for 1 years know and feeling so stupid because it´s actually so logical :D Thank you very much! Great video!!
Thank you so much .Very precious tutorial,yes teach me more about grading.
That video is so so helpful! Will definitely try following your tutorial😊 also a video on how you grade pants would be awesome!!
Thank you! 🥰
This was very helpful and informative. Would love to see how you grade sleeves and cups (more details). Also, I love your music selection, and plan to visit Anja's channel. Thanks much
This is a great video. I’m about to embark on my own pattern business but only ever taught manual / pen to paper. Another way I have seen is to divide grade lines using the pathfinder / divide tool and moving those in increments set on the keypad. Both yours and the divide seem to work well and I’ll be trying both. Not a lot out there on the subject of digitising sewing patterns, so thank you !
Would you mind horribly sharing how you manage the divide method? I learned on paper too and am
Having the hardest time going digital 😭
thank you, love that you use cm
Yes pants please! Love the tutorial so much, it is very clear and easy to understand 🥺
And skirts and sleeves as well! 😂 love your contents 😭🥺
Thank you for this video!!
So helpful! Please do the grading of the pants 😊
amazing, I love it
Ahh I've been waiting for thiss
So helpfull tysm!!
you just saved my life!!!!!
Thanks. Grading is always interesting and it would be great to see how you grade pants too.
Thank you so much- this is great! :) I've been struggling with grading, doing it really complicated for myself 🤔 Yes I would love to see how you grade pants and sleeves and so on.
I also have a question about the length. In which cases do you also grade up in length?
Thank you! I grade length in pants for example 👍🏻
perfect content. thnx
Thank youuuu I have been waiting for this video :D!!!! I clicked so fast ahah
Yes please can we see you grading pants or more specifically mens jeans?
Do you think it is necessary to make a toile of all sizes if I want to sell the patterns or even produce garments in all those sizes?
I haven't checked it right now but I would think grading works in men and women's pants the same way. And no, you don't need to make a mock-up for all your sizes 🥰
I’ve found that I can create a dotted line for a particular size, apply it to the pattern piece + hit Shape at the top toolbar. Create new Shape, then name the shape that size. Then you can recall that preset shape without having to remember what type of dotted line you picked for each size.
wow, please show us how you make pants - new subscriber here
Lieben Dank fürs Teilen fand es sehr interessant und kann definitiv etwas mitnehmen. Habe mir das Buch aber auch gekauft und muss mir mal im Urlaub Zeit dazu nehmen 😊. Bin aber auch neugierig wie du die Hose in Illustrator gradierst.
Freut mich, dass es dir gefallen hat 🥰 ich hoffe das Buch bringt dich weiter 👍🏻
@@THISISKACHI Sieht auf jeden Fall vielversprechend aus.
Hi Kachi! This video is amazing thanks to you I started to learn how to grade! I have a question for you if you can help me 😊 I graded the basic block bodice, but I have doubts regarding how to grade the upper part of the sleeve to put together with the bodice! Should I do it with the same method you are using with the cups in this video? Meaning that I measure in the bodice how much the sleeve opening increase between sizes, and then put this same measurements in increasing the upper part of the sleeve? Thanks so much 🥰
Hi :) Thank you so much for this video. Its really helped me to grade up my bodice pattern. I'm just wondering if you could enlighten me on how to add the different colours to the different sizes. I have my layers showing as different colours, but when I set it to preview print all the layers are black. I'm sure I'm just being a little dim so sorry if I am! Thank you a ton again, this video is so helpful.
Found it 😍
Thank you for this tutorial ! I was wondering did you use Valentina Seamly2D? Can you tell me why do you prefer adobe Illustrator ? Thank you so much!
Thank you for sharing your grading technique using Adobe Illustrator. I just have a question about the armhole...as you grade-up vertically upwards, will it not make the arm "hole" smaller?
Wow, this is quite interesting...is the 2.5 at the top and bottom (the +.50 you added) to account for the hem?
Gracias por el video te agradecería mucho si pudieras poner SUP títulos soy de México 🙂🙂🙂
Tks for this video !!! She save me !!! But I have a problem with my grading on illustrator... When I draw my pattern, i have anchor points too much than points to grade... so when I grading with your method, my curve are not good, because the new curve for my new size stop to the last anchor point and not to the grading point... I use simplify for reduce my anchor points, but it's not enought. You have a solution =( ? (Sorry for my english, i'm french !!!)
would you reccommend grading vertically as well? and if so what's a standard amount to increase as you enlarge your pattern
Hi 😊 how do you create those joints at the corners of the pattern, so that you can select or unselect them and then they don't move along with everything else?
Bitte zeig da mehr von 😍
hey I have a question!
love your videos it helps me a lot with my pattern making but when I select only on side of the patten and want to add 2mm on one side the whole pattern piece moves unfortunately:( how can I can I only make the one side bigge and lock the other half of the pattern piece?
xx
wieder mal ein super informatives Video 👍
By the way, kannst Du ein gutes Buch empfehlen, wie man Schnittmuster erstellt, ohne eine Schneiderpuppe dafür zu brauchen?
Vielen lieben Dank und viele Grüße
Dankeschön 🥰 ja kann ich: Grundschnitte und Modellentwicklungen - Schnittkonstruktion für Damenmode: Band 1 www.amazon.de/dp/3808562374/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_i_DAPY17JTM63QNG22F6CR
@@THISISKACHIlustig, das hatte ich mir sowieso schon rausgesucht. Vielen herzlichen Dank 🙋♀️
Is seam allowance including in the pattern?
I think i love you
Pants please
Hey Kachi, I’m using your tutorial to hopefully start my business. I was just curious is your pattern including seam allowance?
Hi! That's so cool! No, none of my patterns include seam allowances.
@@THISISKACHI Thank you for such a fast response, I'm literally following along with your video now! Have you ever tired this on an iPad or tablet? I'm having issues with my desktop adobe illustrator so I'm forced to use it on my iPad. But I feel like there are missing features.
Thank you so much, I tried it and it has been really helpful but I'm struggling to add another layer because everytime I tried copy paste it won't stay in the same spot with my original pattern size, Its always in a different spot.. I probably doing it wrong.
Try Ctrl + F 👍🏻
@@THISISKACHI I tried it again and really works. Thank you so much
Hi I think that was nice I have to make a off shoulder dress for a wedding and the pattern have 4 pieces how do I get it to a bigger size right now the pattern bust ,is 46,waist is37,and hip is 46 how do I get it to her measurements which is bust 50, waist 45.5 and hip 49.5p please help me out I would appreciate it very much
Please, I am a beginner. Can you be my on-line teacher?
Recommend a beginner sketching and pattern making book for me. I also want to know how to use computer to sketch and grade, Recommend a book and an online tutor for me. Thanks. You're the best teacher 👍
Gerber or lectra works for me better I think....
Why did you use millimetres when you said your measurements are in centimetres
Im confused 😅
Can you please show grading of a bikini top and bottom?
This is just amazing !! Thank you so much for sharing !!🌞
oh my goodness...THANK YOU for this! I've always wanted to learn how people did this!
