Hey guys! Do you want to learn how I draft my Trouser block? I’ve got a new video for you on the channel. Don’t miss it!
I found this very helpful, the downside is that there are sections of the video where the sound disappears.
The video is very good for a beginner. I was struggling to draft my bodice in class and this really gave me a better idea than the booklet that teacher gave us.
Glad you found it helpful
Thank you. My daughter wanted a trouser suit. But the pattern was too small for her. I managed to adjust the trousers without issue. They fitted great until she asked for them to be baggy - ugh. However, the fitted jacket was scaring me. Miraculously, an hour after I said that to her, this came up on YT. So this morning I went through it with my measurements. I am now going to do it for her then lay the pattern pieces on top so I can work out how to add the extra inches. Phew this saved me some stress
Fabulous. Also glad you use cm instead of inch
Thank you
Thank you! Using Centimeters aids in achieving better accuracy.
I can't thank you enough for this video!! I've been trying many different "draft a bodice block-tutorials" but none gave me a good result until I found yours. I was about to give up and then I decided to give it one more try! THANK YOU!! Im so happy now! :D
I am amazed that you got such a perfect fit. Thanks.
I will need to watch this a couple of times to grasp all the information you have provided.
Great video. Thank you.
Pls do another video using inches ...thanks great job😊
You can divide the centimeter measurements by 2.54 to get inches.
This class is very amazing and useful
Thank you!
I try my best to learn thank you so much 😊

@@Thefashionarchitecthow do I sign up for your class?
@leilani2109 Hi! The link to sign up is in the description of this video.
This is a very good tutorial. It's actually simple yet not beginner friendly because there's a lot of little details to keep in mind. So far I am pleased to find your channel. I love how you snatched the waist and also how you create darts. I will be conversing with a friend about your channel and meticulousness.
Considering how you create darts, I see that after the manipulation you have what's like a V connecting the darts feet with a center line at the V curve. Isn't it possible to just go ahead and draw the V curve with my ruler without having to manipulate the paper to achieve that?
Thank you for this review!
Yes I agree we need to also have it in inches so we can convert the numbers
1 inch = 2.54 cm
Thanks for tge detailed teaching
Brilliant -thank you!
Thank you very much! Please is it correct to have 7cm as the difference between the Front bodice length and the Back bodice length?
Fashion Architect kindly post tutorial on how to draw a sleeve pattern to match draft of your Bodice Block Pattern . tutorial. Thank you
Thank you very much by using cm.
Great tutorial, thanks a million
Glad you enjoyed it!
Please I'm a beginner, how do you get your body measurement before dividing??
Information video nice mam
So helpful, which method is this😊
Thank you so much
My tutor....... God bless you Ma
🥰🥰🥰
@thefashionarchitect will the course teach me the step by step to learn how to make patterns? Will I have lifetime access to the courses? Thanks
@bmbrooklyn. I think most courses like that allow you access to the course until you stop paying the monthly fee. It's like hiring a car, the car belongs to the company.
I download to enable a fast learning and understanding, but it seems you closed it,well done dear,it's beautiful.
Oh no, I’m not sure why that happened.
Yes it can't be downloaded
🎉🎉🎉🎉 welcome back
Thank you! 😊
Thank you so much ma
I mean tutorial for a basic sleeve pattern to match tutorial of basic bodice. Thank you .
Hi! The tutorial for the sleeve block pattern is up. Don't forget to like and share it!
In front shoukder dart you said smaller bust 2cm and bigger bust 1cm. What is size range for smaller bust and bigger bust ?? Could you please mention ??
Thank you. How do you mark seam allowance for the arm hole? After cutting on material how can you add seam allowance on arm hole and neck? Thanks
The seam allowance was added to test for fit. Typically you are not meant to add seam allowance to a block. Seam allowance can only be added when a pattern for a design is completed. At that point you can add seam allowance to all the seams.
@@Thefashionarchitect thank you. I always get confused because most videos does add side seam allowances but not to the neck and arm hole and also sometimes to shoulders. Was wondering why that is.
السلام عليكم و رحمة الله و بركاته اختي الكريمة اريداقتناء هذا الكتاب وجعله حسنة جارية للك اريد تعلم الخياطة
Thank you very much! Please is it correct to have 7cm as the difference between the Front bodice length and the Back bodice length? Is it too much or you can have it higher than that?
Oh no, there is nothing wrong with that. For some very busty people, it could be as high as 15cm difference.
Woow !!! Thank you
Thanks you
Thank you 🙏
Hello, Thank you so much for this elaborate breakdown. is this going to eliminate the bulge one usually see at the zipper?
Hi! So this problem is mostly caused by the nape-waist measurement being too long. With the accurate measurement, you wouldn’t have the bulge problem. There’s also a shaping at the back that is required for fitted garments. I’ll most likely teach that in another video. ❤️
Could you please tell why the back armhole circumference is turning out longer than the front armhole circumference in this bodice draft?
Please ma can we extend the back dart legs to the bust point like we did for the front?
I like the demonstrations, however just as one other comment mentioned, your sound disappears.
Good 👍
Thank so much for this videos,its really helpful..please ma when sewing this pattern,did u sew the shoulder dart i mean close it with sewing machine or you left it and its just fit like that??
Oh yes! All darts must be sewn.
Greetings. You made a video on the bodice block….will you make a video on the sleeve block?….please?
Hello! I teach how to draft the basic blocks in detail in the Pattern making basics course. You can find the link to sign up in the description.
Hello ,l want to learn how to analyze style when l seen them and to draft it .Can l get that on you pattern courses? If yes, please reach out to me . Thanks
Is it different for men?
which body measurement is it? 8,10 or 12?
Thank you so much ❤️
Please 🙏🙏 size 46..or sizexxl❤️🙏
Something that always bothers me: why is bust measurement is divided by 4? My back is not the same with as my front. I'm a 32E bra size (i have narrow back. And shoulders). This would make my back too wide, but my front too tight. If we want to be precise, should we measure the back and front portions separately as well?
Please how can I register for the course? Thank you
Well dun
sound cuts out at 6.23 to 7.40 so I didn't get the first bit of this
Thanks for this. Are we not going to have V shapes or corners at the center front and centre back due to the front extension (triangle at the bottom)
Hi! It all balances out when the darts are sewn. Unless in some cases where the difference between the center front and side seam is very much, then you’d need to confirm the side seam measurement from the human figure and make the necessary adjustments to the side seams. This should fix it.
I hope this answers your question.
@@Thefashionarchitect Thanks for your response
I incorporated the difference between front and back length and made it a front side dart. It works well also. Thanks was just sharing.
Thank you
❤️❤️ ❤️
Have you any books for the methods.like this?If you have let me know. I would like to buy it.I am from sri lanka(asian country)
Thanks. Is the pattern drafted the same for girls with a very very small bust?
Yes, it is!
Hi have tried to purchase you course, but I was unsuccessful. What a pity.
Mam cai request can do it with inches because I'm faster to catch up wt inch thank you mam
Hello....could you redo this video because audio was lost in some instanced. Thanks.
No sound after 14:00 As a beginner it is important for me to not miss anything .😢
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 good
What pattern is this? Helen Armstrong?
Just going through this tutorial now. How can i convert Cm to inches so i can have better understanding pls
Hello! Thanks for this question.
The measuring tape has two sides. One is in inches and the other in centimeters. An easy way to convert the measurements is if you need to find 20inches in cm for example, simply find where 20inches falls on your tape, hold it and flip to the other side of your tape. You will have that measurement in centimeters.
The trick is to do this for all your measurements before you start drafting so you have all your measurements in cm.
I hope this helps.
Hello, where can one get the straight ruler please?
Got mine at a local stationery shop.
Why it's in inches...I don't know cm 😢
Please ma... Is it also applicable to men's wear
No, it is strictly for women.
thank you... why not name the points by thier names
Thanks for your feedback! I’ll be sure to do that in subsequent videos.

This method is created with a shoulder dart, but it can be moved to any other position on the bodice using dart manipulation.
