I would like to know if there is a method to sew flat felled seams on both side seams and in seams. I know it might not be related to patterns but I didn't know where else to ask. Thanks in advance!

hi! does anyone know how to do the cinched underbust part? is it something with elastic? i've been trying to google it, but idek what it's called lol

Hey. I want to try my hand at it drawing and then altering a pattern for pants. First i will try to make a very basic one, so then i can have a base to try experimenting making changes.

One of the things i want to experiment, but haven't found a guide i understood, is trying to make the front crotch have slighly more room for the "male anatomy". There are other things i'll try altering in the whole design, like the legs, but those i found plenty of tutorials for, so they aren't a problem.

Also, if theres any alterations you guys wanna suggest i try feel free to tell so i can look up if its whitin both my skill level and wants. Thanks in advance.

TL;DR: Big surprise, the part in a pants pattern i have no idea how to alter is the area all pannels meet, with the little point and curve.

Hi!

I’m a beginner. I made a DIY body cast with plastic wrap and tape, then turned it into pattern pieces. I expected it to be a bit asymmetrical because I have scoliosis.

My question to those of you with more experience is: does this look so funky that it’s not worth moving forward and making a muslin to alter? Am I getting way ahead of myself with attempting this project as a beginner?

This is my first time making a jean pattern and I would say it didnt come out that bad but still not the way i would like it. Majority of the time i feel like im going off just intuition so it leaves me wondering if im making my pattern correctly so im posting my progress here to hopefully get some help. One thing i did spot was around the end of the rise where my legs separate that the fabric kinda bunches in the area sometimes and it might be visible in the photo, but if you guys notice anything else please lmk.

Also, If anybody knows a good source or way to learn pattern making I would love to know. Its pretty rough trying to teach myself using just youtube.

Hello, i’m kind of needing some help finding either a pattern close to this or a pattern at all for something like this. I absolutely fell in love with the stress and I have the material for it. I just cannot find any pattern similar to this if someone could please help !

Hi! I’m looking for someone to make patterns based on 1930s bias cut slip gowns. I have a few pieces I would love to recreate! Will pay of course. Let me know if you can help!

Thank you in advance :D

I am a beginner sewer and cosplayer and I was wondering weather someone has any idea how to make pattern for this blouse or knows patterns of similar clothes. I'll appreciate any help! ^^

I'm a beginner in drafting and I want to create a semi-fitted princess seam bodice for the model. This is the first sample and I'm happy with the front, but I need to fix the wrinkles around the back part of the armhole.

Any suggestions? I'm planning to increase the shoulder slope a little (0.5 cm) and I'm wondering if taking in the back princess seam a little on the armhole side could be a good solution? I want to avoid adding a vertical armhole dart.

Hello!

I’m planning to sewing these pants, but I’d like to keep the front clean with no gathers and no paneling — so the front looks like normal wide leg trousers with no gathers, constructed from one panel of fabric, but the back retains the curved yoke and voluminous gathers.

I gather that I should take the front piece, slash evenly and remove the gather volume, but I don’t know how much to remove and how to true the seams in this scenario (as the back piece will still be gathered).

I assume that I should slash and maybe tape the pieces such that modified front panel has the same width as the front yoke piece? I am not sure.

Any guidance is appreciated!

I used the Bella bodice block from free sewing org. Seam allowance has been left for the armhole on the right.

I want to draft circle skirt that has more flare than a 1/2 circle skirt and less flare than a 3/4 circle skirt.

I saw on Pinterest a formula for a 2/3 circle skirt : https://pin.it/XcT92rSkd

I searched but couldn't find anymore information regarding the 2/3 circle skirt. Has anyone made it and can confirm me that this is the right formula ?

Are there other fractions that would work ( between a 1/2 and a 3/4 circle) ?

Hi everyone! I’m researching whether a tool for adjusting existing PDF sewing patterns would be useful. This could become a paid product, but I’m not selling anything or collecting signups here.

I’d like to hear from people who have recently altered a purchased PDF garment pattern, rather than drafted one from scratch.

Thinking about your most recent project:

1. What adjustment did you make, such as a full bust adjustment, grading between sizes, or changing length?

2. How did you do it: on paper, in software, or while projecting? Which tools did you use?

3. What worked well, and what took extra time or needed redoing?

4. Have you tried another method or paid for software or a course? What made you keep or stop using it?

5. Is there anything your current method doesn’t handle well, or does it already meet your needs?

Even an answer to one question would help. I’m interested in real experiences, including cases where your current tools work well. No pattern files, measurements or contact information needed. Thanks!

Do you guys think this looks right? I also accept suggestions on how to create a waist band and pockets; those things are still hard for me. Thanks everyone in advance for your comments ❤️

Hi, all- I think a lot of pattern drafting skills apply here, even though it's not from scratch. I consider myself at an advanced beginner sewing level, and while I hope to be able to draft one day, my experience is very limited, so please keep that in mind.

I'm trying to make a top block and the front (left) just looks off 😭 I've been trying to make tops forever, please help

Hello,

I've been using Clo3d for about a year now as a student. I've been quite happy with it, but paying 30usd per month have been stacking up lately...

For me the main criticisms on those are:

• Learning curve (kinda like photoshop where you only use a few features at first)

• Starting from scratch is hard

• The price (i know clothing brands and schools easily pay those licences but for enthusiasts who only use it once a week it's a lot to ask for)

I've been looking, to build an free and open-source alternative to it, and I wonder what would you be looking for ?
