    Earlier this evening I just played with moving a dart on a dress I'm making, and it worked! If I had seen your video, it might not have taken so long! lol

    this was really helpful. We see about darts usage but i havent seen a video like yours (you know, showing every change and the end result. It's a bit important for us, people who is starting, to not just see a 2D pattern but to put it in 3D visually). I appreciate your time! Really!!

    Thanks you for making this video, I find it very useful. Where did you buy this roll of paper? I bought at the post office a parcel wrapping paper to use it for copying my patterns onto, but it is not good to use for that purpose. Please let me know what kind of paper this is that you are using and where you purchased it from. Many thanks.

    I mean while drafting your pattern, the dart you included did you add allowance for the dart or did you take the dart from your body measurements

      @@oma950 Hi there, yes there was an allowance for the dart. So my waist line is made up of the dart allowance plus a quarter of my waist circumference with ease.

      @Bettyalamode  4 дні тому

      @@LMawlong-i3h it’s because I moved them, when i move them to the bust, the bust dart legs are shorter on the sides leading to the dart opening looking different. The length of the dart can cause them to look different in size when you move them.

      @@iriskeniafernandez5647 I do it as an alternative option when closing/moving/Adding a dart. Otherwise I would have to slash open the dart to make changes to it and then transfer it to a new piece of paper. I like having basic bodice with different darts, so it’s the quickest and more neat way to having that done
