Bonjour, c'est une des meilleures vidéos que j'ai pu visionner sur les patrons de base, seulement mon dos est plus long que mon devant de 2 pouces, dans ce cas comment placer la pince poitrine ? Et comment gérer le décalage pendant la couture? désolée de vous écrire en français, c'est plus simple pour moi étant francophone, thank you !

Hello where can i get the ruller you are using plz

[@LiangPon-sb6zj]

What is the purpose Of that 3 lines in the middle ,?please 🙏

[@Kemafrik]

Please, watch the tutorial.

[@chhaviagarwal8142]

Thank you so much for the lovely detailed tutorial. I loved it.
But if you do not want a very fitted bodice for a slightly loose dress, how much ease would you leave? Also do you add the ease in your body measurements or add it later?

[@Kemafrik]

You're welcome. You can add 1" ease on the pattern or desired.

[@maeroseleen5004]

I like the blouse that you wore on this tutorial..❤ can you make a pattern of this❤😊

[@zainabJawara-uy3pv]

Thanks again man🖐️I really appreciate,I want to be a faction disiner but how can i

[@RaqiaMalak]

No one Evers gives the size of paper you start with. Everything else is clear

[@stephaniebenjamin8108]

I have 2 questions. How do you know by how much to slant the shoulder to get a good fit? Some people go 1 inch, half an inch etc. Same question for creating arm curve, I've seen some go in by 1/4 inch, 3/4 inches to the back. Thanks. Very easy and clear tutorial watching from Trinidad and 🇹🇹

[@Kemafrik]

Well, it depends on the body structure of an average person in a geographical location, even within an area, it can still vary, but not enough to cause a fitting issue. If you want to be exactly accurate, your best bet is to create a toile, then alter the pattern for that individual if you experience any fitting issues.

[@maryjamaryja8782]

thank you 🤗

[@Kemafrik]

You're welcome 😊

[@fatimachristianaakanni6631]

Well done ma, Thank you so much for the tutorial but I have 2 questions.
1. the formula I use to get the chest line is BURST DIVIDED BY 6 PLUS 1.5; and i place it from the slope not from the margin/start line. Is this wrong?
2. how do i manipulate the lenght of a dress or blouse that has a cut at the waist (half lenght), since the front half lenght is more than the back. What do I do to the remaining part of the dress or blouse?

[@Kemafrik]

Thank you.
1. Yes, you're right.
2. I explained that at the end of the video.

[@Vivian-tx7dz]

U are the best

[@Kemafrik]

Thank you 😍

[@speshedtv]

Thanks!

[@Kemafrik]

You're welcome.

[@angelinaasah6780]

So beautiful ma'am. But please how do we go.about it if the difference between the front and back half length is up to 6 inches?

[@Kemafrik]

I explained at the end of the video.

[@sharoncarvalho6471]

Mam pls give me the link on how to take body measurements

[@amandahoran1858]

Thank you so much for this tutorial using our own measurements. I have a question. I have fat arms, and I struggle with clothes fitting fine on my torso but tight on my arms. In that case, would I have to make the arm holes of my bodice bigger to accommodate a wider sleeve?

[@Kemafrik]

Try using your half of your shoulder width or the formula in this video to construct your armhole, see how it fits and you can then adjust your subsequent patterns.

[@marieaw1254]

Interesting and informative video. One question, do i need to add ease on top of the bodice measurement?

[@Kemafrik]

It depends on what you're creating, if you are going for something fitted, there will be no need.

[@TracyOghenerume]

Please how can I cut it into my fabric

[@Kemafrik]

Check tops or dresses tutorial on this channel.

[@janithrangika6911]

This patterns front and back side seams are un matching. Because, front part side seam dart length not add this front side length. Am I correct or wrong??

[@Kemafrik]

Yes, you are, I explained further towards the end of the video.

[@EvaFilipes]

Corte e costuras que manda está mensagem e a Eva de Almeida Filipe vivo em Angola quero a prenda está arte obrigada beijinhos

[@deenachouhan]

Mem full bhust 38
Waist 30
How many side dart width plz
Diffent size in side dart tell me
I líve in india

[@Kemafrik]

Please, watch the video on how to take accurate body measurement on my channel, The width of the bust dart is the difference between the half lengths of the front and back.

[@boluwatifeolamide2344]

How do I transfer it out ma without sowing the bust dart on the cloth and the waist dart

[@Kemafrik]

By using dart manipulation.
I don't have a tutorial on that here.
But you type it out on the search bar, I'm sure a couple of nice tutorials on dart manipulation would pop up.
