Teehee thank you 😊

Really useful video as always. I have several existing tops that are too big at the front neckline - would a small inverted pleat work on bringing these in? How easy would they be to do on an existing garment? Thanks as always. 🤗

[@SewAnastasia]

Oh yeah you could totally do this to a neckline to tighten it up. Depending on the top you can pleat it & edge stitch it down.

@@SewAnastasiaGreat thank you. I’ll give it a try then. 👍

Question! So I’ve been getting into sewing and I’ve been watching all your pattern drafting tutorials which are very interesting. I’ve gone through the bodice, and the sleeve, but I can’t seem to find the skirt tutorial. Is jt up and I’m missing the video? Or are you still on the works of making that one? :) thanks!

[@SewAnastasia]

I actually never made the skirt one but there is a sloper video where you download the sloper pattern & fit the one from the pattern. SLOPER PATTERN PDF: How To Easily Make A Sloper Dress In Your Size! kzbin.info/www/bejne/pWWvd4pjoJaprqM I’m also working on an online sewing pattern drafting courses starting with the sloper. It should be out in may sometime at sewanastasiasewingacademy.com

2:33 I would have thought the approach would be the reverse here: sew the two halves of the pleat together from the wrong side first, then fold it out flat and do the long seam. BTW is there any special name for when you do this type of pleat with a contrasting fabric on the inside of the pleat?

[@SewAnastasia]

There are so many methods to the madness of sewing! Thats the fun part! I would call it an inverted box pleat with contrast underlay.
