Can I get a link to your bodice drafting pattern, please?I've been looking for it for the past 45minutes.

[@MayowaOye]

Hi…Sorry about that but it’s a private paid course.

[@keziaaddo2230]

I will love to see it on a human being..thanks alot

[@MaryDemilade]

Hi Thank you for the teaching but will it be convenient to sit if boning is attached on full length? Or will it be better to attach on the waist region?

[@MayowaOye]

You can do any one of them but I don’t think the boning will stop you from sitting

[@darkhorseo4977]

Thanks for the tutorial ..I have a question please… can I add paper stay to the down part to make it more structured

[@MayowaOye]

Hi.. You should be able to

[@janetwilson5943]

Thoughtful and helpful. Does this method work for top with structured hips also

[@MayowaOye]

Thank you.. And yes, it should work for that too

Hello, please the 3inches and 2inches extension at the hip and hem respectively; is it for half scale block or full scale block?

[@MayowaOye]

Hello… Everything I say is for a full scale block. I just use the half scale to teach

Pls do you have a tutorial for the beading?

[@MayowaOye]

No I don’t

[@egenuka699]

Did you later add the bidding stuff on the Ribbeca helm line

[@MayowaOye]

It’s just a miniature sample so I didn’t

[@zoya7067]

Can i use thick crepe for it?

[@MayowaOye]

Sure you can

[@patcerulean3093]

Should i use a thicker interfacing or boning to achieve the structured shape of the skirt? Or using thicker fabric will do?

[@MayowaOye]

Hi.. You can use both but if you don’t have a thick fabric, just use a thick interfacing or boning

[@egenuka699]

This is so beautiful you … please what’s the name of the fabric you used

[@MayowaOye]

Thanks.. The one I used is damask
