    I have been watching videos of people telling me how to draft a "sloper" "a bodice Black" and got totally baffled by it all and thought THIS IS NOT FOR ME. until i found Alisa. i binged watched all her video i sew her announce her pregnancy and have herd and seen the little one grow in a matter of weeks. i am sticking with Alisa as her delivery of the videos is the BEST i have seen and i get what she is saying. and if i don't i re-watch. AND when i do try for real i will watch and pause at all the stages and i have a sneaky feeling i will be ok and will have a Garment i made myself and will be very proud of it. Thank you Alisa. x and your apprentice will be behind a machine very soon i bet.

    Your little girl has grown so much, she's just adorable! About how much fabric do you think I would need to get for an adult?

    • @ThoughtfulCreativity
      @ThoughtfulCreativity  3 роки тому +1

      Ah, thank you! Great question - it will depend on the size and on the type of the base (the sweatshirt) that you're going to pick - I have a few interesting options listed in the infobox from previous tutorials. I love the no-shoulder seam trick, but it does use quite a bit of fabric and leave remnants, so if short on fabric, I would go with something that has a separate bodice and a sleeve. I would day 1.5-2 yds to be sure for adults. Members Extra and Instruction Sheets will go live in about an hour :)

    This is super easy to follow. Definitely something I'm going to try once it starts getting a little colder. Loved the tip for slashing the pattern to do the different necklines. I've just been doing ineffective pattern origami!
    If you wanted to add a zip to the front I assume you'd have to make it wider than the back to account for the extra seam allowance?

    Thank you for all the help, can you show us how to change a neckline on a block pattern….. most of your tops are quite high in the neck and I just want to know how to change this into something different…. If you could SHOW US, by changing a high neck pattern it would help us beginners so much, thanks Georgia

    • @ThoughtfulCreativity
      @ThoughtfulCreativity  3 роки тому +1

      Block pattern necklines are always high as they are not a garment, but a pattern block. To change the neckline - widen it from CF to the right (or left, however you draft your pattern) and deepen it down the CF. Easy as that :) I have a video on how to draft and sew a V neck - you can check out that tutorial to have a basic understanding of what I am talking about.
