Pattern Cutting - Flat Pattern Drafting, Drafting the Sleeve Block

[@cindydowns371]

I read some of the other comments. I am also having the problem of the sleeve not matching up with the armhole. The back of the sleeve matches the back bodice right to the edge, there is none left over to transfer to the front bodice as you demonstrated. When I rotate the sleeve front around the front bodice armhole there I run short a couple of inches before I get to the top. I used the crown depth as you suggested. 38 in bust - crown depth of 5 1/8 in.

I cannot wait till the tutorial finish , I have to tell you I finally found someone her teaching is so detail and a good way to teach us how to do the sleeve, it is you ! I have been watching your tutorial ever since I found you . I am so happy i got you. Thank you ! Betty

[@angelakanetv]

Betty Hung Thank you Betty. That is very nice of you. I hope you will continue to follow my channel.

[@phyllisgordon6577]

Thanks for your simplified and well explained instructions. Your bodice is one of two I have found without having to insert an armhole dart. You have taken the complicated formulae out of the sleeve construction. Thanks again. An excellent tutorial. God bless you.

[@angelakanetv]

Thank you Phyllis, I'm glad you have found my videos helpful. Your comment very much appreciated.

[@oluwasegunajibola232]

Please, what's the other pattern that you don't have to insert the dart? Please let me know.

[@hilalkalkavan1083]

I thank God that you exist Angela. you have my full trust on finesse.

[@angelakanetv]

That's really nice!

[@sonamursalova7870]

Thank you so much miss Angela to make your videos so simple without tens of measurements ❤

[@angelakanetv]

Thank you Sona. I do work hard at the videos and it's nice to get such appreciation!

[@susie7087]

Your tutorial is so much easier to understand than some others I've watched. Thank you.

[@sabik.6298]

Auf diese viedeos habe ich schon lange gewartet, schade das es die nicht auf deutsch gibt. Aber ich bin trotzdem begeistert.

[@angelakanetv]

Sabi K. Danke sehr. Ich werde sehr bald Bildunterschriften hinzufügen und KZbin können sie recht gut zu übersetzen. Thank you very much. I will be adding captions very soon and KZbin can translate them quite well.

[@sabik.6298]

Das wäre super, ich freue mich

[@stephaniefite9565]

So very perfect! Easy instruction that worked perfectly with my drafted bodice. Thank you, looking forward to more videos.

[@marwaanwernasr1696]

Hi .. I really need to ask you ,, what modification should be done to this pattern in order to get a well fitted sleeve?! .. I couldn't find any thing helpful in this topic .. If you can make video for that it would be so helpful ,, or you can just tell me what to do. thanks for your precious videos =)

[@conservativetothecor]

This is so clear and detailed too. Thank you so much.

[@johnjaycis]

Hi Angela. Your videos are amazing! Just one thing. I didn't see where you used the measurement for the wrist. The pattern you have created looked straight on both the U sides. I wonder how to adjust it using wrist measurement. Thanks in advance! :)

[@maythammohamed9125]

thank u a lot .There are many videos but l prefer to watch your videos

[@angelakanetv]

+Maytham mohamed Thanks very much. Glad you prefer mine. I do work hard at it!

[@squinternet1]

May I ask you a tutorial for kimono and raglan sleeve? It would be extremely appreciated!

[@fatemayasminakhi5138]

your videos are educative and helpful, thanks but I have some questions. The curv line you make by measuring U to B, B to T, T to F and F to U, are those measurements constant to all sizes. if not then it will be a great help to tell us the different measurements of different sizes.

[@angelakanetv]

+Fatema Yasmin Akhi Yes, these measurements are pretty much constant. They can vary when it comes to creating different sleeve styles from your block and I hope to cover that soon. For the other variables, please visit my site - angelakane.com/sewing_patterns/pattern-cutting/ - The are included in the Pattern Cutting eBook for members but the variable are freely available for non members.

[@akinwandenifemi3283]

Hello Angela. Please can you make videos on necklines. I'm having difficulty in that aspect. Thanks.

[@trixievixie5849]

Hi Angela, I've followed your tutorial from the bodice to the sleeve but just at the end when I pivoted my sleeve around to T I found on mine the T falls about an inch below SP on the bodice instead of above. I have made my bodice to fit a size 40 bust. Is this why it doesn't fit? Are there any variables for the sleeve so it fits the size bodice I've made? Many thanks, Vicky

[@SuperSeka2010]

Vicky Hill same problem here

[@astreaweihe6907]

Same here!

[@mercywelime2790]

The extra inch is for ease, normally sleeve needs 2cm ease when ur done drafting. u draw a little gather but it should not form a bulk. Or u lower the top line and redraw the curve .

[@nainui8375]

it's very helpful tq

[@angelakanetv]

+Nai Nui Thank you very much.

[@squinternet1]

Great tutorial! very helpful! may I ask how do you establish the depth of crown? is there any formula?

[@alicemiller6913]

Please help me too... Hoe do i establish the depth of crown?

[@ezpzmaths9453]

@@alicemiller6913 She has taken a standard measurement of 5 inches which is the cap height but you could measure straight from shoulder point to the point on your arm parallel to your armpit...that is where you measured your top arm...cap height is a vertical measurement from shoulder bone to your top arm

[@monikasarser]

Very helpful... Thank you so much...

[@mariammoola2651]

Love the instructions. Please can you provide sleeve draft in cm.

[@angelakanetv]

Hello Mariam, I think this is what you want kzbin.info/www/bejne/mISznKuchr96q6s

[@nelukadesilva]

Thanks

[@angelakanetv]

And thank you for leaving a comment. Much appreciated!

[@benzafiqatelier3582]

How you calculate the cap height on the sleeve, i mean from where u get 36inch bust circumference, then you said , i should be 5 inch.. Can u explain in detail the formula.

[@jojoremeny]

Easier method . Measure your top sleeve at shoulder seam point to wrist point .. measure under arm seam to wrist point . The difference is your cap height ...

[@kittyliu4900]

Thank you for sharing ,would you please explain what is DC formula? I mean the length of from the shoulder to armpit thank you

[@angelakanetv]

Hi Kitty, So for a 36"/92cm bust the Depth of Crown will be 5"/12.7cm. Add or subtract around an ⅛"/0.3cm for each size smaller or larger. So a 34"/87cm bust would have a 4⅞"/ 12.4cm Depth of Crown. You may find the metric version helpful - kzbin.info/www/bejne/mISznKuchr96q6s If you register on my site angelakane.com/amember/signup/4f2rZmbd, you will be able to download my Table of Average Measurement which includes the full range of Depth of Crown and all the other useful measurements. Thank you for commenting.

ANGELA KANE Sewing TV thank you

[@nimmyj08]

Mam I have 2 doubts. U marked front & back sleeve 2& 2 1/4" . Is it common measurement for all? If not , how calculate this ment. How calculate cap length m. Ment ?

[@angelakanetv]

Hello Nimmy, Yes, of course Pattern Cutting is all about variables and there is a limit to how many you can specify in a basic tutorial. The sleeve head I have recommended is quite a flat one and many styles may be better with a 5 ½" sleeve head in which case these measurements would be 2 ¼" and 2 ½" for B and F. But the measurement down for B and F is very much a starting point and changes would be made at fitting. Highly fitted garments would need adjusting but for the kind of easy fitting styles that I recommend for beginners to pattern cutting, this generalised measurement is good. Please see all my variables on this page if you haven't done so already - angelakane.com/sewing_patterns/pattern-cutting/ Thank you very much for commenting.

[@linarodz2165]

ANGELA KANE Sewing TV there's no information about the variables for the sleeve

[@maryjanepineda6349]

Hi! How do u call that ruler?

[@angelakanetv]

Hello, It's called a Pattern Cutter's Setsquare. You can find them in metric and imperial and also combined.
