[@martinakefas7337]

I don't know where to start from... God will bless you and increase you. Thanks very much. I pray you see and attend to my question. For me I guess, it is better late than never. Is it necessary to transfer the bust dart to the shoulder or waist dart?

[@yemibadero8956]

Thanks Lady P. Really enjoyed your teaching. More grace

[@tunmiserosemary3451]

Thanks for the illustration. Why is the difference between the front and the back shoulder's slope?

[@damio4472]

Hello Ma’am. Thank you for this detailed tutorial. Please my question is with the shoulder opened how do we adjust it to be equal and balance with the back shoulder? Thank you once again…

[@chikabamidele5291]

Thank you for this intense foundational tutorial. I really appreciate.

[@lovelynchinechem3417]

Best tutorial ever❤

[@nnekaogali4654]

Thanks for the tutorial ma,my question is for the front armhole after slanting the shoulder by 1.5 and adding 8inches length ,will the total length not be 9.5 as suppose to the back that is 9

[@edieadolphe1622]

Thank u precious, your tutorial is easy but I have small challenge on the shoulder and how to insert the bust dart

[@verawhyte8473]

Hello ma'am I really understood this tutorial.thanks alot. How else can we make the front and back bodice equal if we do not want a burst dart?

[@makaitachamunorwa4763]

Good teacher🎉

[@fatimasaka5700]

Pls ma how does one determines d depth and width for necklines any formula pls

[@favourochigbo1369]

Pls ma. When transferring to fabric what happens to the open shoulder? If it open like that won’t it make the shoulder big

[@phyllisgordon6577]

This was an eye opener. Thanks for you invaluable time.

[@juanitaforde2762]

Doing a great job the you explain rhings

[@nadiankwate9597]

Thanks Precious apparel.. But wish to know .. Most a times when am cutter, it's the back shoulder that's always brought down by 1.5,and the front 1", I do learning mostly online

[@nadiankwate9597]

Got so many things passing through my mind.. -When the pattern is to be transferred to fabric, will all those cuts remain that way? - for which kind of cloths should this be used on..? - Can the length of the bodice you used be on all half length cuttings? Whereas some half length cuttings take just a normal dart how will the front length be made equal when a bust dart isn't used?.. Thanks so much will be waiting on response still learning

[@neemamhaville9048]

Hello Precious,it was a nice tutorial

[@olundegunmaria9202]

Wonderful tutorial, please someone taught me to use 3.5 for the front shoulder slop, what do you advice

[@zimuzoeche9161]

Gud day Precious plz what if the bust is really big and the difference between the front length and back length is like 3. And around the across chest wen divided is more than the shoulder line wat can be done

[@claritathomas4867]

Thanks Precious for this tutorial. I will try it and let you know the result. Would this instruction also work for someone who has very large bust?

[@mimas_secret]

I watched this video three times to understand every damn step. the only thing confusing me is why transfer the darts to the shoulder? thanks for the free tutorials. God bless you

[@PRECIOUSAPPAREL]

I'll also explain that in our next class sis

My back is not equal with my front part and it is giving me headache ma.... Have tried it three times already

[@habeebattolulope5756]

Hi precious u tried following ur illustrations to do mine but when I folded the bust dart it wasn't the same inch as the Back.... Done it more than once still the same 😢 😭 kindly assist me... God bless you for sharing your knowledge with us

[@dianneunderwood8456]

Informational & enjoyable - thank you. I do have a question. When drafting my own bodice, my lengths at center front and center back (as taken from the top of the shoulder at neck) are the same. Does this mean if I wanted a side dart that I would have to lengthen the front side at the bottom by the amount of the dart width ? Or would it be better to lengthen the side seam up into the armhole, thus shortening the armhole by that amount ( until the dart was sewn?) Thank you for any suggestions you may have to help with this.

[@emekarhemary3380]

Can I use this pattern for a plus size person

[@CARLO-wn8hv]

Hello precious A quick question Why is your back pattern drafting drawn before your front pattern drafting. Is there a trick to it cos I feel ordinarily front drafting should be before the back . Will appreciate your response thanks

[@chiomanwachukwu4187]

Hi madam Precious. Thank you for the detailed tutorial. Much appreciated.please since its d burst /side dart that equalises both the front and back bodice, how do I achieve equal(length wise) bodice for a dartless bodice?

[@daraedem7391]

Ma on ur recent illustrations u didn't come out by one inch to get the bust dart is it a new method?

[@udembaamaka4891]

Thank you so much for this. Simple and straightforward....when sewing with the shoulder dart. Must it be sewn or it can be closed up

[@PRECIOUSAPPAREL]

You can sew in, close up or transfer the bust dart to the waist

[@udembaamaka4891]

@@PRECIOUSAPPAREL ohk...thanks a lot. I actually drafted the pattern yesterday. I opened it on the shoulder but I'll close it and the transfer to the waist.

[@dorisamadi2679]

I appreciate ma very clear

[@ifeoluwande]

Thank you so much sis, I'm indeed grateful. Pls Ma, is it possible and normal for the back waist length to be more than the front waist length?

[@PRECIOUSAPPAREL]

No dear sis. Maybe you didn't get Your accurate waist line or you didn't measure your shoulder to back Lenght well

[@juliesgarb4053]

Most pattern drafting books I have read indicated that sometimes the back shoulder to waist may be longer than the front. Also in some figure there is no difference between the front and back

[@PRECIOUSAPPAREL]

How do you eliminate Back puff

[@juliesgarb4053]

Back puff can be eliminated by taking out 2cm/1cm/1 inche/or half inch(the amount to remove is at the pattern drafter discretion) from the waist. Mark it at the waist and rule a line from there up to the back line.

[@PRECIOUSAPPAREL]

@@juliesgarb4053 thanks dear sis. I'll appreciate a detailed illustrations on this from you. You can teach people your method too. I only teach what I have tried and see how it works. Kindly follow the link on the description box and join our Facebook Group so that you can share this. Stay Blessed

Does 9 inches for the armscye work for all bust measurement?

Thank you so much and God bless you ma. You made it really simple and easy to understand. How do I keep my basic block for future use because I'm not sure this pattern paper can withstand the stress of using over and over again?

What are the darts are for?

[@fashionsimplified8261]

I just love you

[@nnennamartins4343]

Base on the bodices, you use 15 for the back and 17 for the front. which other way can you make the back and front equal without using bust darts?

[@chinecheremezere6541]

Is it a must, you add the burst dart to match with the back length?

[@olaguppy8624]

Pls ma.. Why did u use 1.5 in front shoulder and 1. In back shoulder?

[@PRECIOUSAPPAREL]

After joining. It will lay well on the shoulder.

Please ma'am precious in a situation whereby your across chest is 17" and across back is 18" how do I locate the mid point of armholes for both from and back block thanks

[@Nei88]

Since you never added the 3.5" to the bodice wont it be small on top. And when you add it becomes big so what do you do?

Keep up the good job, I will try and draft the bodice block using ur method

Okay sis. No problem

How do we know when to apply bust dart, or shoulder dart or waist darts on a garment? If one is making a gown, would one the apply the 2 inches difference between the front and back half scale bodice?
