How to Pattern Draft | Skirts | Drafting a Gathered Skirt | Ep.6

[@katieberberich826]

Another wonderful lesson. Thank you so very much. I have drawn up my skirt pattern block and I'll be stitching it up today and checking for alterations. The gathered skirt looks so pretty on you. It'd make a lovely dress with an additional bodice. I am not that far yet though. ☺

I wish I would have this video before. Your method makes the gathering so much easy. Thanks

What adjustment(s) can be Made to the darts for those with oversized hips? The darts appear very long . Not a critic. Just an observer. Thanks for your body of work.😊

Hi , love this skirt and finally finished mine today. Just need to hem and add a zip. Thanks so much for such yet another detailed and informative video. Izzy is so easy to follow and so knowledgeable! Just wondered if you would need to add a waistband or could you just leave it like this? Also could you have a elasticated waistband and no zip as another alternative? Thanks so much for all your advice , so much appreciated ☺️

My ruler is being delivered today so I will be beginning. I have a question will you be adding techniques on how to change such as collar’s. I would love to learn how to make a square neck on the top block. Thank you great series.

Hi Gail, thank you so much for your suggestion!

[@louisep1898]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. Another great video. Please can I ask if you would follow these instructions to make a skirt for a child too? Many thanks Louise x

[@MinervaDotCom]

Hi there! Yes you could, we have plenty of adjustment videos as well as part of the series to better fine tune the block for the body

[@louisep1898]

Thank you so much. I will try it with my daughter then and then perhaps tackle a bodice block after so I could combine them to make a dress? Thanks so much for your advice and videos they are so beneficial and so easy to follow 😃

I use dental floss with longer areas but not for sleeves etc. it’s not worth the effort for those.
