Drafting a skirt pattern with Valentina | How to make a skirt pattern | VeNove |

Thanks a lot! It’s very helpful 😊

[@monyhasan3819]

how can i reverse the direction of the curve after drawing it ??

[@VeNove]

When selecting the curve hold the Shift button. You can also reverse it later in the Details mode, just click your pattern to open the Workpiece tool, then from the list of object select the curve, go to its options and reverse it.

Thank you very much, it was really helpful, had it been a bit slower, it would be perfect!

A new, much better video about drafting a skirt pattern is coming soon - slower and with all the needed instructions 🙂

@@VeNoveYou mean this according to armstrong method ? It is not easier. Too many measurements as always in this method. The video here is simple but unfortunately for some reason I had to stop since point line intersection doesn't work for me in Valentina..does not create point A8 at all even though it seems that I follow your instructions - unless you pressed something which does not show. How points A7 and A8 were created?

Whoever is interested ...I downloaded Seamly and done this skirt in no time without problems.

I dont understand why we have to give 1 cm to waistline.wouldn't that make the waist bigger than the actual measurement?

[@VeNove]

When drafting a pattern (for woven fabrics) you always need to add some movement ease to the body measurements. In this drafting method it’s recommended to add 0,5-1 cm to the waist (that’s the amount added to the basic block, so amount added to whole circumference is twice as much). Note that this is a basic skirt block, so it’s usually modified accordingly to the design. After the fitting the waist can be adjusted by making the dirts bigger or smaller and usually also a belt would be added.
