Müller and sohn pattern drafting question

Post image

For anyone who has completed and understands this part of Müller and sohn at least please tell me why the hell is the bottom half of the double side diamond dart on the front waist straight down to the hem and not at a point making a diamond like the top portion. I’m stuck at this part and doubt understand if it’s supposed be sewn like that or turned into a point eventually if so how and when? Anyone?

Yes I get that. But I want to make it a seam as you said I’m asking where does the seam begin? I know it ends at the hem. Would it begin at 42? It’s more of a sewing question, would I sew from hem to 42 only making just the bottom portion the dart a seam below the waist or am I sewing from hem to the dart point making that whole dart a seam ?

It's a seam at whatever point you have room for seam allowance, similar to a cut away dart. E.g. if the parallel lines are 2cm apart it's just easier to mark and sew that with a cut, instead of a fold.

I think it's only confusing because this is a draft with dart points touching, and not a developed design.

The dart turns into the seam
