Cute Dress Pattern for Girl APPLICATION description
Pattern drafting can seem like a big, scary undertaking to many sewers. While it is definitely a large field of study that one can spend many years learning and perfecting, most anyone with an
interest and at least advanced beginner sewing skills can get started understanding the basic theory.
PREP WITH A BASIC BLOCK.
Patternmaking is based on what is called a basic block/sloper. For home sewists, you will likely only be interested in creating a basic sloper for your own unique body shape and measurements. Most patternmaking textbooks recommend starting using a fitted bodice with a waist seam.
NOW START COLLECTING THE NECESSARY TOOLS AND SUPPLIES.
At a minimum, you will need pencils, rulers, a variety of curves, pattern paper, scissors, pins, a tape measure, a tracing wheel, and muslin fabric. There are loads of other helpful patternmaking tools, but you can get started with just the essentials, adding to your collection as your experience, interest and budget dictates.
MEASURE UP!
Using the measurement chart from the patternmaking resource you are using, ask a friend to help you take and record your upper body measurements. Then use those measurements to draft your personal bodice sloper as instructed in your patternmaking resource. Yes, there will be a few math calculations, but nothing too scary or difficult!
DON'T BE SHY, ADD A SKIRT!
Once you have finished your bodice sloper, the next step is to make a basic skirt sloper. These two slopers together can be used to create a variety of other sloper styles, including dress patterns. Repeat steps 3 and 4 above using your lower body measurements to create your skirt sloper.
MAKE IT YOUR OWN.
Now the fun begins! Once you have a sloper for your bodice and skirt, you can begin changing the dart types and placements to create designs that are pleasing to your personal taste. Most textbooks recommend starting by repositioning darts to new locations on the sloper. Don't forget to add seam allowances, and the appropriate amount of wearing and design ease to your final pattern designs.
