HOW TO MAKE AN A- LINE DRESS || SIMPLE A- LINE DRESS || TAYLORMADE DESIGNS

[@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing]

Hello sew mates Thank you so much stopping by today. I appreciate it. Today I am showing you how to make an a-line dress. Do enjoy. I must apologize, when I was showing the vertical measurements it was out of focus so forgive me. Just add all the vertical measurements and make them into a straight line. Sending all 1740 of you lots of love ❤️ and lots of kisses 😘😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰

[@fridamariafrancis]

Very nice I have successfully sewed a line dress for myself, and I'm very confident. Thanks a lot, for your tutorial. God bless

[@soffyscookingcorner5438]

A nice pink head wrap and pink shoes goes well with this dress.

[@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing]

Yes yes yes. Your favorite color. You would wear it well

Lovely dress you've got there sew mate

Thanks sewmate

[@lawrencejlittle]

Hello, I am grateful for your wonderful video. I’m about to complete the bodice block thanks to the help of your other amazing video on that subject. However I was wondering when I’m ready to make this dress can I simply trace my bodice sides to the appropriate sides of the fabric and then cut it out? Trying to surprise my wife with a new dress…

[@chikac6607]

First time I come à cross à désigner with Caribbean accent. All I find is Africans or Spanish Chinese. So I am happy. Cant get the accent though.. Not Jamaican because you pronounce the H lol guess kittitian lol what ever you are, you are Caribbean and I am happy that I have found you. Great job

[@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing]

Lol I am Jamaican . Born and bred. Lol. Thanks for being here and God bless you immensely

[@antoinetterichardson9301]

@@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing lol but you pronounce the H and Jamaican eat the H lol. Wel I am happy. Jamaica has fashion design ing schools. I wanted to travel there once to learn, but you know how things are there. I am afraid. So I found out that I could learn here, so I try.. One day I will be able to make my own outfits. Again happy that my fellow Caribbean is here teaching us

[@richierich2338]

Thanks for this Madam. Quick question, Is the chest line the same as the armhole line?

[@childoftheking9028]

Very nice

[@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing]

Thanks for sharing

[@maideimazodze6481]

Kindly asking how did you get the chest line measurement from neck?

[@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing]

Divide bust by 6 and add 1.5 and then from the shoulder you put that measurement

[@abisolauwadiale7831]

this is amazing, thank you so much dear sister

I love your channel so much

[@neareahombayi6104]

Thank you so much For the perfect explanation.

[@priscillatshabalala6062]

clear tutorial. I notice you did not add a seam allowance for tne armhole. is it not needed?

[@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing]

It depends on if you like it that way. It’s no problem I just don’t . But if you do add it to the armhole remember to add it to the sleeve

[@jada-m6b]

U are an absolutely great teacher however could u please teach how to cut sleeves if u have not done so yet thank u God bless

[@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing]

Thank you so much. I have made many videos on sleeve. Please feel free to check them out and thanks for watching

[@rosegubstv8427]

wow nice very interesting video ..great video super nice..Hope connect

[@iyaboose]

I have watched a video where the fabric is folded on Boss to cut Aline dress. Please why is it done so, and what is the difference with your cutting on straight fold before shaping. Thank you.

[@sewkiddieswithajulam996]

This is so beautiful

[@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing]

Thank you sewmate

[@keturahfagan243]

Lovely

[@sylviasandy]

Hey Prof. I’m here again watching while I’m cutting. Where should I attach the pocket? At the waist line or 2 inches below the waist line?

[@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing]

2 inches below

[@sylviasandy]

@@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing Thank you so much for this reply. I had kept the cloth aside till I get your reply. Don’t want to spoil it this time. 😁😃

[@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing]

Welcome

[@julieella]

Thank you! I noticed you did not put allowance on the armhole when cutting, is that how it should be?

[@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing]

I actually added my seam allowance when I drafted the shoulder. I don’t usually do if I added it to the shoulder but you could do the exact measurements and then go ahead and add your sewing allowance Best TaylorMade

[@iyaboose]

Pls I’ve watched videos where the fabric is folded on bias for A line dress. Why is it so, and what is the difference with your own straight method?

[@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing]

Hi. When someone cut a pattern on a bias it makes it easier to sew around the curved areas. Both methods are correct.

[@richierich2338]

In addition to what Taylor made said, the difference is that the bias cut places the pattern at a 45° angle or any angle on the woven fabric. At that angle, the threads give the fabric more of an elasticity. With the same width at the bottom of the dress, a bias cut will give you a full drape and more fullness at the hem line. Take it this way, if you want to dance Salsa or Bachata, a dress cut to bias allow the skirt portion to fall on the bias, which means they move beautifully.

[@aoshadon]

What material did you use to make this dress?

[@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing]

Hi I used a cotton fabric

[@aoshadon]

Thanks. I want to make one tomorrow. Yours is absolutely lovely.

[@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing]

@@aoshadon thank you and best of luck. Need help you can always reach out to me 🤗

[@aoshadon]

Thanks very much. Will definitely upload a pic for you to see when I'm finished. How much material did you use?

[@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing]

@@aoshadonabout 3 yards

[@mikapettyfer8818]

Why didn’t you add seam allowance at the neckline?

[@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing]

Because I have cutting free hand so I added it. So instead of cutting for instance, 4 inches for my neckline I cut 3.5 inches so when I am sewing I sew the exact 4 inch and it will be exact. But you can add your seam allowance. It all depends on you

[@iyaboose]

I meant on Bias

[@mysewingmadeeasy]

Hello sew mate. I had editing problems with my 2 previous videos and I had to upload them again so your treasured comments got deleted. If you don’t mind visiting them again. It means so much to me

You know I love A line dresses but the stomach gotta be flat for it to be flattering...#myroadblock but this is really nice and as usual you’re a great instructor.

[@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing]

Thank you. You don’t need a flat tummy just a good waist trainer 😌. It will look nice on you sis.

[@angelarankin9426]

No explanation of how you resulted in the measurements you said your bust is 11 inches?

[@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing]

I divided my bust by 4 then I added 1/2 inch for ease

[@angelarankin9426]

Thanks, is that the same calculation for all the measurements?

[@TaylorMadeDesignsSewing]

@@angelarankin9426 no . Watch my basic bodice pattern it will clarify Best TaylorMade
