Oh girl, you really know how to explain a basic HJA pattern making class, thank you so much for your great ideas. Maybe in your next videos, you can improve the lighting to better observe the quality of your work on the stroke and the line.

[@onyidiy]

That’s good 👍. Don’t worry, I drafted both front and back at least 3 times before I got it right 😩. If you draft it again and you’re still having problems please let me know. I’m more than happy to help 😊

You are welcome babe.

I’m glad I found this video. Thanks so much but please what does 1/8 of an inch means

[@onyidiy]

It’s kinda hard to put it in writing 😩😩 but it’s basically the first line on a one inch mark/measurement. I’m glad the video was helpful 💕

[@bollavarapusruthi1126]

Can you please make a video of torso and corset draft making using Helen Joseph text book

[@onyidiy]

For sure. I’ll put that on my list of tutorials 👍👍

[@fatimalopez4660]

Muchas gracias!!

[@onyidiy]

You’re welcome dear 💕

[@sana_fruitwala]

Thanks for the video. It was so helpful.Can you just show me the book which you are using so that I can get clear cut informations of the patterns and calculations. I have searched so many books to learn pattern making but did'nt get the reliable one. I will be grateful if you'll help me with this.

[@onyidiy]

Hey, the book is called “pattern making for fashion design” by Helen Armstrong. The thumbnail shows what the book cover looks like (the picture is the top right corner) that’s the 5th edition.

[@sana_fruitwala]

@@onyidiy Thankyou so much!!

[@oluwakemitope9905]

You just made my intimidating ebook (Armstrong) easy . Thanks. Can this be used to make a shirt and hospital uniforms?

[@onyidiy]

I’m happy you found it helpful. And yes this pattern can be used to make a variety of garments 💕💕

[@sharonkhor7433]

Nice vid, thanks. How did you get the dart placement for front and back ? The book didn’t mentioned any of it..

[@onyidiy]

Hey Sharon, Thank you 🙏 On page 38; figure 7, the dart placement is labeled as Number 20. All you need to do is measure the Centre front (at waist line) to the princess line. Another alternative is to measure the Centre front (at waist line) to the side seam and divide by 2. Hope this helped 💕

[@sharonkhor7433]

@@onyidiy it seems like less than a half from the centre front. I don’t know how to get princess seam though haha Thanks for your help

[@onyidiy]

@@sharonkhor7433 Try using the standard measurement for a dart placement, which is 3 (or 4 if you’re on the bustier side) pls let me know if you still need help if that doesn’t work.

[@sharonkhor7433]

@@onyidiy your mean 3 or 4 inches?

[@onyidiy]

@@sharonkhor7433 yeah 3 or 4 inches

[@saloniaggarwal936]

My dress form doesn’t have standard body measurements, should I use the standard measurements or go by the dress form only? Also, your videos our quite helpful! Would love it if you could do a video on dart manipulations as well😊

[@onyidiy]

I think you should use the standard measurements because that’s the one that is probably closest to your body measurements. I’m so glad the videos are helpful to you, I actually plan to film dart manipulations in the nearest future 🙏🙏

[@RafiqulIslam-cc9vs]

I want to know how calculate it for ex a to f back neck (12) plus 1/8inch

[@PerpetuaNneka-f3h]

Weldon ma🙏 please where can I buy this book am in Lagos state Nigeria

[@angelinafernandes358]

Amazon maybe

[@onyidiy]

I believe you can get it on Amazon 💕

[@shakiraisraatriyaa1249]

May I know where to place the darts and the measurements for darts

[@onyidiy]

Hi! The waist dart is between 3-4 inches from the Centre front waist, the space between both dart legs should be about 1 1/2-2 inches depending on bust size and the dart is placed 3/4 inches below the bust point.

[@shakiraisraatriyaa1249]

@@onyidiy thank you so much ❤️, what about the skirt block

[@onyidiy]

@@shakiraisraatriyaa1249 The skirt is the same as the top, whatever measurement you used from the center front waist (3-4 inches) is what you’ll use on the skirts (both front and back) then the length of the dart for the front is 3 1/2 inches while the length of the dart for the back is about 4 inches 💕

[@bardhyllluca6516]

Hi.your videos are good.go pn.put in the same video pattern.cut on fabric and sewing so because we r beginners we understand s.th.please use always fabric without flowers or designs so we can see well the sewing.😘

[@onyidiy]

I will try my best to do this in the near future.

[@eke-mma5341]

I love your earrings😍. Where did you get them from?

[@onyidiy]

Aww thanks! I've had them for years, I got them from Aliexpress. That site has everything under the sun!

[@pidikitibavani5887]

Y the armhole is different for front and back

[@onyidiy]

It’s because the front armhole is a lot more narrow than the back. And that is why the front armhole is usually cut about half an inch deeper than the back armhole.
