    Well done! Finally advice that isn't do a FBA and never lower an armhole ! Crotch curve visual was a light bulb moment. Thank you.

    Ah! The crotch curve analogy! 🙌 Brilliant. One question about adding length to the sleeve cap: if you do the full half inch in the front and the back, aren’t you effectively adding 1 inch to the length of the sleeve armscye curve instead of the half inch that was added to only the front armscye of the bodice? Is that because you want to add additional ease as well, or would adding a quarter inch in the front and back be an option so that you’re lengthening the curves of the sleeve and the bodice armscyes by the same amount? (And does my question even make sense?).

    • @LoveNotions
      @LoveNotions  День тому +1

      It's the same as adding length to the front of the bodice--you would add the same to the back as well, or your front bodice would be longer than the back. So still ½" total length, from a height perspective.
      But Noreen will be by at some point to clarify further. 😊 Thanks for watching! ~J

    • @reneemorgan9320
      @reneemorgan9320 День тому +1

      I was thinking the same thing. Couldn't wrap my head around it just being 1/2" but figured I was missing something. 😂

    • @wrappedinthread733
      @wrappedinthread733 День тому +1

      I totally get your thought process! In this case it’s a length vs circumference issue. Think if you folded a piece of paper in half that was 10”. It would be 5” long. If we added 1/2” to both ends it would be 5 1/2 “ long still folded in half. But if we measured around the whole piece it would be 6” around. So yes that is adding a bit of ease but we need the length. Hopefully that helps 😊

    As mothers and seamstresses we occasionally take a backseat when it comes to our children, especially at wedding time! I had no daughters but my son and his wife asked me to do everything, everything meaning flowers, cake, rehearsal dinner, programs, the bridesmaid dresses, flower girl and candle lighters dresses! I could have said no, but since I probably never have another chance I took it. You had a wrinkle in your very pretty dress; mine had the hem taped in! Thank you for the tutorial!

    I have some difficulty grasping spatial relationships. (Geometry was sooo hard!) I think this is why I don’t intuitively know where to make adjustments on a 2D pattern for a 3D body. But your instructions made perfect sense! I’m sure I won’t remember so this video is an autosave! Thank you. 💐

    Did you also have to lengthen the armhole in the back pattern piece on the harmony 1/2 inch or did you just ease in the extra 1/2 inch of the sleeve to the existing back?

    Question - when you cut the pattern and added to lower the arm scythe, didn’t it also lower the dart placement? Should we adjust the dart placement up the same as we had to adjust the neckline back up?
