CUT IT OUT ✂️Part 1 ✂️How To Cut Fabric with a Pattern Like a Pro

After you understand the warp and weft and how to prep your fabric, we can get to the cutting! This is an exciting step to constructing your garment, it does take some time to set out your pieces, pin, mark and cut out - so make sure you also bring your patience. It seems pretty trivial to cut fabric, but in this video I give you some professional tips for cutting fabric from a pattern.

I've been sewing for 25 years and I watched the whole thing :) I'm completely self taught and just discovered the wonderful youtube world of sewers. So I'm actually learning things I never knew or did wrong.

[@LTRLTrendFashnGuru]

That's amazing! The learning should never stop - I am also learning something new in this realm even though I went to University for Fashion Design. We can always improve on what we know and expland our imagination with new techniques. Thank you so much for watching!

[@debbieculley7532]

When I used to sew, I actually did a lot of "basting" or hand sewing on things that were more difficult, such as zippers and puffed sleeves. "Basting" is actually a large hand stitching to keep things in place while you permanently sew with the machine. Then, after machine stitching, you take out the "basting" stitch.

[@beckyharppritchett7912]

You make this so much fun !!

[@apexpro1983]

Probably expert 😍

[@Eltopshottah]

I’m just getting started 🙈

[@juliesullivan5018]

I really enjoyed this video. The one thing I'd suggest is making necessary adjustments to the paper pattern prior to cutting. I will also make a "dummy" garment of calico or old fabric to check the fit first. It only took me 45 years to learn that. Happy sewing everyone!

[@gillianfoulds2969]

I am a complete beginner and I have to say your tutorials are the best and the easiest to follow I have found on KZbin, you make it fun to watch and I am learning so much, thank you Faren.

[@LTRLTrendFashnGuru]

Soooo unbelievably happy to hear this! Seriously, this is exactly why I teach... because sewing should be fun and easy! Thank you for sending me this message of encouragement - it truly made my day. Much love to you and thanks again for watching 🙏♥️

I like your style of teaching. You're funny and knowledgeable. The pace is better than hysterical speed. Thanks.

[@jchollingsworth1389]

Haven't sewn for at least 7 years on a machine and forgot more than I realized. Discovering all the new things on my brand new sewing machine, just a basic one. (lost mine in "Sandy" and starting a new). This video really gave me a lot a renewed confidence, as well as a bit of re-educating me in the basics. Thanks "sew" much. :)

I’m also self taught and have been garment sewing for the last two years. The info in your videos has really helped me to elevate my skills. I look forward to watching more of your tutorials.

[@sarahhavillamelooliveira5825]

I'm the same, but no one ever tried to teach me how to sew and I'm only 19. I'm starting to sew with linen bias cut camisole/slip. It is an undergarment, so I'm free to piece and sequeze as much as I can from the fabric. I'm trying to fit 3 slips in 2½ yards. I could fit as much as 4 if it was straight grain, but bias should be better, so I'm going for it

[@livethroughthis09]

Thank you!! This was so helpful-- and thank goodness you mentioned that sometimes you have to use the same piece twice. I thought I was missing a piece in my pattern. Quick question: the pattern layout I have shows the pattern laying in such a way that it would be face down. Can that be right? I mean, it must be right because that's how the diagram is but it seems weird.

[@LTRLTrendFashnGuru]

Hi LAM, thanks for watching .... glad I could help! Yes, the pattern can be shown as face down when your fabric is all facing up (not folded as sewn in the video). There can be pattern layouts that show right side up (which is the case for asymmetrical patterns), but if there is one one piece in the pattern that is symmetrical (as might be the the case for your pattern) this will mean the pattern needs to be cut face up and face down in order for you to have the opposite piece. Hopefully that sheds some light on your dilemma. Feel free to follow me on instagram at @ltrltrend and DM me personally if you have any further questions! Happy sewing

Thank you for the video. I couldn’t figure out why cutting the fabric was the hardest part for me. I’m left-handed and wasn’t using left-handed fabric scissors. 🙈 I’ve always used regular scissors despite my dominant hand being left, but turns out it is very important for cutting fabric. 😂

[@LTRLTrendFashnGuru]

Yah, having the right equipment that suits your needs is one of the more impotant factors in cutting. Its like having dull scissors, it is annoying and you struggle the whole way through (causing yourself and the fabric much undue stress). Thanks so much for watching!

Thanks for watching! In order to preserve all 4 sizes, copy thw pattern you need with a separate piece of tracing paper (make sure to get wide enough paper in order to do this without having to tape pieces together). It's annoy to have to do this, but if you want to keep the other patterns intact, than this is about the only possible way. Best of luck!
