How to Draft Basic Pattern For Children's Wear

[@ginal.mayo-sosmena3488]

I am sooooo happy to have found this. I went to a sewing class many years ago but I have forgotten how to draft a pattern for a bodice. I noticed one slight difference though. Our instructor said we had to add 1/4-1/2 inch below point F but only for the front pattern, the reason being that children’s tummies tend to stick out a bit. Thanks for sharing your skill!

[@rebeccaredletter]

WOW! Your instructions are wonderful! You speak clearly and slowly and go step by step! THANK YOU!🙏🏼

[@cristyschranz1544]

You are a blessing for sharing this pattern. Millions thanks to you❤️ G-d bless!!!! Question from A to C where’s that measurement coming from?

[@הדרשלם]

Thank you!! Is this pattern suitable for woven fabric?

[@carriemarson7722]

Excellent teaching! thank you for making this so simple. I am 62 yrs. old and you have given me a precious gift, " possibilities."

[@kimsteele7714]

Oh my gosh, I am so happy. This is the closest I have come to understanding how to draft a bodice. I thank you so much for making this very understandable. Now I will have to take some time to write out the instructions and how to execute each step. Again thank you so much for making this understandable.

[@velmajackson7990]

thank you for this video. where did the 3.5"(point C) measurement come from? Thanks.

[@Alice-q5r2f]

I wld like to knw that too, that was d only thing I didn't understand

[@avisha73]

So you have to leave 3.5 in from shoulder to measure chest width B and this is where the 3.5 plays its role.

[@desireeguibo1982]

Bravo ,you made drafting easier for me...I follow your tutorial and I did it ... I am beginner in sewing and I just wanna say thank you, you're a big help 💕

Thank you for great video. Was wondering besides taking exact measurements do we need to add extra for ease? Thank you

[@amamimalek9878]

This is the best video i found. Instruction very clear!

[@bacon_girl1155]

This is so great! Thank you. To cut the pattern from cloth, I assume that I add seam allowance to all dimension?

[@nafisaghafour5646]

Sorry to ask i really don’t Understand the A to C

[@nicetosew1668]

@suseelaramakrishnan6474 A to C is for the line for shoulder slope. That is why it was extended outward.

[@annetherese2196]

Hi does this include 1/2 inch seam allowance? Thank you so much for your step by step video! Very comprehensible!

[@nicetosew1668]

Hi! Thank for watching my video. Seam allowance is not yet included. 😊

[@Sadie2.1]

Love the video. Is F point a constant in every child's pattern? I was confused where that was derived. Thank you.

[@nicetosew1668]

[@TheRealHousewifeOfPG]

Beautiful work. I have one question. Because toddlers tend to have baby fat on their stomach, what should be done when the front length is 11 inches (to accommodate tummy); but the back length is only 8 1/2 inches?

Thank you for the video. Very helpful. What should I do different if drafting for a size 14 year old child or size 14 on your chart?

[@nicetosew1668]

Usually it is the A-C (line for the chest width. Instead of 3 1/2, you can make it 4"

[@paprichaat5]

Can you share which French curve and hip curve to purchase from amazon? Too many options and variations to choose from it’s confusing
