Fitted Turtleneck Tutorial Part 2: (soon)
Materials:
1. Regular Fit t-shirt - find a t-shirt that isn't too loose or too tight. It should fit you nicely in the shoulders and should just fit over your chest and hip area without stretching.
2. Tracing Paper - or you can use parchment, wrapping or newspapers taped together! Be resourceful!
3. Invisible tape - or any tape
4. Pins
5.Pencil and eraser - mechanical is the best but any will do!
6. Grid ruler - or just a plain ruler is fine but grid rulers allow you to create 90 degree angles and parallel lines
7. Paper scissors - mine are from the dollar store
8. French Curve - no need to buy these, simply visit this link and print it on cardstock - growyourownclo...
9. Tracing wheel - make sure it's sharp if you get one
10. Measuring tape
Definitions
Pattern Block - A foundational pattern that does not include seam allowance and can be altered into many different styles. A block is usually a very plain and simple style.
Pattern - an outline of a garment component that can be transferred to fabric and cut out to make an entire garment. It will include seam allowance.
Seam - where the fabric was stitched together.
Seam Allowance - the width added to the pattern that allows for a seam to be created. Seam allowance is usually a 1/4" or 3/8" for serged garments, or for a straight stitched garment it would be 3/8" to 1/2" and in some enclosed seams it will be 1/4" seam allowance.
Bodice- pattern or garment component pertaining to the torso or main body.
Walking a pattern - matching up seam lines to make sure they match exactly.
Notch - Pattern notches are small marks made on the pattern to ensure that one pattern piece will match up to the pattern next to it. They can be used to show what the value of the seam allowance is, and can also be used as markers along a seam to make sure that the two pieces of fabric will come together correctly when sewn.

Charlotte Gelly You’re welcome!!

[@luciamacias4283]

could you explain the neck part one more time

[@LydiaNaomi]

Sure thing! I wanted a 3 inch tall neck so I need to double that because it is going to fold in half. So thats a 6inch height. To get the length, you want the circumference of your neck (make sure the fabric is stretchy enough to still go over your head though) plus a bit of ease (1/4inch). Once you creat this rectangle, add a 1/4" or 3/8" seam allowance all the way around the perimeter and that is your neck peice!
