'Stop Using Commercial Patterns, Learn Pattern Drafting Instead'

12:31 Apr 28
'Have you ever wanted to throw a project across the room? Has the sizing of a commercial pattern ever let you down? Are you tired of having to make a muslin every time you make a new design? Are you frustrated trying to find pattern styles to your liking? It\'s time to break up with commercial patterns!  Get yourself a working bodice block and let yourself free.  Draft your own from \"scratch\": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYJXKh1_dSI Make one from a dress pattern: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUtyPPntBrQ Make one from a Fitting Shell pattern:   Some Fitting Shell and Block Patterns: B5627 Fitting Shell: https://somethingdelightful.com/b5627 B5628 Plus Size fitting shell: https://somethingdelightful.com/b5628 M2718 Fitting Shell: https://somethingdelightful.com/m2718 V 1004 Fitting Shell: https://somethingdelightful.com/v1004 Bootstrap Custom Pattern: https://patterns.bootstrapfashion.com/fashion-designer-sewing-patterns-dress-with-front-draping-3026.html#.YOzFe-hKiUk Pattern String Codes Patterns: http://pattern.stringcodes.com/main_sizes.html Pattern Lab Custom Patterns: https://patternlab.london/home/  Music and Sound Effects from Epidemic Sound.

A PO BOX finally wahoo!  First, a disclaimer: So many of you have kindly offered to send me things, including vintage items you may have inherited, and I am so honored you would think of me and of course I do adore vintage treasures, however, unfortunately I only have so much storage space currently! So there is a chance that if something just wont work for me, or doesn\'t fit me etc, that I may not be able to keep all of your lovely things. Please only send things if you are okay with the possibility that I may donate items I just cannot keep. If you would prefer I put things that I can\'t keep into the TCH Etsy shop to help raise funds for me and the channel, please specify this in a note or letter in your parcel. Thank you so much!  Bianca Esposito PO Box 632177 Highlands Ranch, CO 80163  Thank you for watching!'
