Can u pl help me how to do with other way round.From stretch fabric patterns to woven fabrics.

[@MarinaBrumpton]

much harder that is, and really not advisable at all unless you know what you are doing. Sorryyyyy :)

[@samanthanicholson9015]

Do you have a pattern for this dress? What kind of jersey fabric is this? Thank you Sam

[@MarinaBrumpton]

Hi, its a knit jacquard. I love this type of knit. Its easy to work with and no binding necessary. This is my existing Vivienne pattern. Hopefully I can get out a jersey pattern this summer.

How can I create the pattern

[@rosettelillehei7730]

How big was the fabric?

[@cynthiacrum3340]

Could we get the same result with just buying the pattern in a size down when using jersey knits vs cutting down the pattern?

[@MarinaBrumpton]

+Cynthia Crum The problem when you just size down is that the body length is not the same anymore and the size of the armhole. I would never recommend it especially since you would have to go 2 sizes down, as the reduction is 8 cm in total. That is an awful lot and the sizing would be all off. I know people do that with patterns but it just isn't as good. And since you have all the sizes why not work with the one appropriate to the age?

[@cynthiacrum3340]

+Marina Brumpton (Frocks and Frolics) That makes perfect sense I wasn't even thinking about armhole etc. makes me nervous to mess with the patterns like this (cutting them down) but you do make it look pretty easy in the video so I will give it a try. My Jersey isn't heavy though so I will wait for you other videos for lighter jerseys. thx again, always so helpful. :)

[@MarinaBrumpton]

Don't be nervous, its just maths really. If it fits in woven it will fit after in jersey too.

[@cynthiacrum3340]

+Marina Brumpton (Frocks and Frolics) ok thank you.

Love your videos Marina, I think I’ve pretty much watched them all. Truly excellent. You are indeed very talented. Quick question...I have several meters of stretch velvet and I want to make a “princess costume dress” for my 10 and 14 year old. Do I employ this same method for converting the bodice (I’m using woven fabric for a circle skirt)? Do you think it’ll work? I’m going to be using your Vivienne pattern. Thanks in advance, Bev xxx

[@MarinaBrumpton]

Bev McMullen hi, if you are using stretch velvet for the bodice you would need a gathered skirt to stretch on so it's not too tight. Otherwise you will need a zip. Combining stretch with woven in the waist area is difficult. I would stick to the velvet throughout. That will make it so much easier.

[@anagarciasaravia5547]

So lovely!!!

[@radhamani6997]

could you please teach how to cut the paper pattern?

[@MarinaBrumpton]

+radha mani There are plenty of people already doing that which are really good actually. It's also something which grows out of lots of experience sewing and professional training. I will show some things but if you want to know how to draft a bodice check these guys out: kzbin.info/door/LSP3s7t6TWksd_9N_r4blQ The other thing is theoretically knowing something and following the rules isn't going to get you a great pattern. Its the tweaking the draping on the tailor dummy and also a good amount of intuition and flair which really gets results.

What software did you use to make this video?

[@MarinaBrumpton]

+LadyCDJenny L Hope Hi, I use Cyberlink Movie Director, its a very simple system, still took me a long time to master lol.
