BEST video I have seen on explaining the reason for choosing a smaller size on tops. All other information available in videos and books just say, choose smaller size and adjust. But you are the only one that actually showed step by step on how to adjust. Also showing yourself with both sizes 14 and 16 really shows the fitting differences between the two sizes. And I love that you showed the final blouse actually sewn. Other videos show the work done on pattern tissue, but not the actual garment after being sewn.
Andrea!! Yes, I'm doing this! So thankful your video popped up. Hope you are still making videos.
I wish you and you tube were around a lonnnnng time ago when I gave up sewing for me and only sewed for kids! On the other hand, your fitting videos are right on time as I enter post menopausal body changes and want to sew for me again. Much easy to understand than the books.
Good afternoon, Girlfriend. I am so proud of you. And thank you so much for taking the time to do these videos. I've done the seam method and did not realize that was what I was doing. This video has been very helpful and I look forward to your next presentation.
+Cennetta Burwell Thank you Cennetta...Some things we do are so instinctive, we don't know it. It just makes sense.
Your video on pattern, fitting a shirt was so wonderful. Thank you for the great job you did to that shirt and explaining the different patterning sizes. And picking the right size pattern on how you did the adjustment to make everything fit right. I will be using theses tips.
Fitting, fitting, fitting is always the problem. Thank you for the information, I want more....please continue.....
+Nicole Girard Thanks Nicole...will do.
I just purchased V9029 so now with your help, I'm off to give it a go. great tips.
I'm a beginner your time, efforts gentle explanations I appreciate them all, hope to get along 👍👏👏

Making this pattern as part of a sewing class in a few months. I found your fitting tips very helpful as I have to make a muslin beforehand. ❤️
Thanks E. Fitz, for checking by and viewing the video. Good look with the project

I enjoy your videos! I have learned a great deal. I wish I could sew alongside you as you are very knowledgeable. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you very much Val.
Thank you for this video. Your instructions are so clear to me on every video you do. I thank you for that as well. I have been sewing for as long as I can remember (65+yrs.), and have great skills, but unfortunately, no one ever showed me how to alter a pattern.! I used to fit in a pattern w/o adjustments, but aging changes our shape(s). I have made formals for my girls, heirloom christening gowns for my grandchildren, suits, pants, etc., and now I feel like I can't fit myself. I live in a town that offers no fitting classes. I am searching for adjustments to my V8986 (princess seams also) and i'm stumped as to where to begin! I am going to start with the bust adjustment as you did. I am using a 16D, but still need an adjustment. My waist dips in the front in relation to the back, so do I just lengthen the front and taper to back seam?Also, I have very narrow shoulders, and the back sleeve area of the bodice gaps some. Will this disappear when i do a narrow shoulder adjustment? Also need to make the sleeve wider, as you did. That seems very straight forward in this video. I think I am getting overwhelmed with so many adjustments and getting close to just throwing in the towel. I LOVE to sew and would love to get back to filling my closet with clothing that FITS!
Being able to see the entire process truly has helped me grow and look forward to applying all the knowledge i have gained from you to my sewing.
+Isha Mcbride This is terrific to hear Isha. I can't wait to see your pants.
What great information. I don't have this pattern yet but I will be purchasing. I wish I could take a fitting class with you. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Janet. Glad it helping.
Thank you for the video. I am completely new to sewing and although I did not understand how you made the adjustments for the bust I did find your video very good. I hope you will keep making them because I have become a fan.
Wonderful! It takes time. In this video, I did forget to include a few pointers.
Thank you for this teaching session. I didn't know about where to place the buttonholes. That was a great.
You are very welcome Maria. Those buttonholes can end up in the most unflattering places.
Andrea love your videos and they are most helpful. I plan to watch all you have posted and will continue to follow you. Thanks so much for providing us with your knowledge. I appreciate it so much.
+V Higgins Thank you M. Higgins. Much appreciated. I am glad this is all helping you. Comments like this really encourage me to keep going with these type of videos. Thanks for sharing with your sewing friends as well. Andrea
Beautiful work Andrea! Lots of great fitting and sewing tips here. I will definitely use the tip about wearing no makeup while sewing, especially for a client. That could save a potential crisis!
+Stephanie Newman Working with other's materials does change how you do things. Just remember to take just as much care with your own. Right? I just didn't think.
Great tutorial and very informative. You have put terms to a method are two that I was doing. but couldn't articulate it in my garment reviews. Also great tip on the belly button placement. I normally start at the bust and go from there. but never considered the belly button placement before continuing on with the other buttons. . Awesome. . TFS.
Your videos are the best!! I am going to try and bookmark certain things so I can go right to it when I am on that particular piece.
Thank you again AD!
+Jorja Price Thanks Jorja...I try to be as helpful as possible.
THIS IS sew NICE OF YOU !!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!
You are welcome Dara. Thanks for subscribing. Don't forget to check out my blog for more. www.sewtofit-Andrea.blogspot.com
Great video; you are helping me a lot; keep it up!
Good deal
awesome, I would love to be able to tissue fit. I'm still fairly new at garment sewing and fitting is my biggest challenge. I wish we were in the same city because I would love to take a fitting class from you.
+dorothy scales Thanks so much Dorothy. I hope you can get a lot from my videos. There is more to come. Thanks for subscribing.
I love to wear the cold shoulder tops/blouses. Could you please show us some techniques? Thank you so much. I enjoy your videos and have learned a great deal.
Your shirt looks great. Subscribed!
Thank you so much robin. I actually have gained weight since this picture and still had a little room for the fudging. I’m so glad I added the extra ease.
New to your channel. Love your videos and how you explained fitting. It’s like friend to friend
Welcome.
Beautiful fit!
Good job. Thanks for sharing.
Wonderful. Great job and thank you.
+Carol Faulkner You are welcome Carol. Thanks for your interest in the videos.
wonderful work. Thank you so much. Truly educational. Mary G
Good deal Mary.
really good videos. I learn a lot and you are funny. I appreciate time you take. I have had a really hard time getting a video on how to do an fba on a princess seam. No-one has yet done one on a lined jacket and discussed ease. How do you fit a chanel type jacket if you have to consider 5" of ease?
Excellent fitting
Thanks Pamela.
Great tutorial! Your shirt fits great...no one bit of gaposis! I hope you can get the lipstick off your sleeve!
+Art Attack Thanks. I found the Tide pen at Target, and it took the lipstick out super quick. My new tool.
I love your videos-thanks for posting. I think I will try the seam method on my next FBA with princess seams. I have one question….is there a pattern for the white shirt with the waist bands that is in the background?
Hello Michele. I can't remember the pattern, but you can put bias strips across to get the cinched look. The strips are only on the front. It needs to be a well fitted shirt.
Great job Ms. Andrea!!! Love the tutorial and great info! Of course I'm a new subbie! Don't you just hate when something like a little lipstick makes it's way into your creation, LOL! If you don't have any, get some Oxy clean stain remover. I keep this in my laundry room because it works on just about anything!!
Thanks Myra. I found some of the tide pen and it worked great. I just rubbed it on the stain and wiped with a damp cloth. The oxy clean is wonderful. I use it regularly and should have thought of it first. Stress makes use forget the obvious. Thanks for the reminder.
AD Lynn I've never heard of the seam method. Can you do a video showing how you actually did this? Is this less work than the typically cutting and spreading? Which method is best? Thanks.
+Janet Thomson That method is similar to the "inside" slash and spread but avoids throwing off the grain. I will add that too my list. Thanks for your interest and watching.
I loved this demo...it makes it so easy. Thank you so much.
You’re welcome Bobbie.
I am currently making this shirt and struggling with the front band. Any suggestions or do you have a video ?
Andrea, I looking at the video for fitting the skirt hem for the protruding butte. It says you will show how to apply measurements to the pattern. I'm not sure what video shows this. Would like to see this.
Check out the skirt sewalong Playlist. I have to videos discussing and demos to show.
Quick question, to make sure i understand, is it best to fit a top pattern based on upper bust measurement, even if it's the top end of the pattern envelope range? And, I would assume with tissue fitting, you're creating your own ease by making all these adjustments? (coming from someone that will need to make fba)
That is correct. The top end just means the pattern is going to have a tad bit more ease for the lowers range. The closer we are to the top range the more we "fill" out the space or take up that ease which is why we need an FBA when we are well endowed.
I understand what you are doing 99% of the time... this bust adjustment (how to do it) made me super duper confused! Really want to understand. ☺🙄😣😉
Sorry Robbin. I did take a little shortcut here. Try to see if this video helps ua-cam.com/video/4jo4iVvwEok/v-deo.html
Just use spray & wash & it will come out.
