Jess! I've missed your videos! This dress is so cute! Perfect for spring/summer. It's getting cold where I live. Would love to see more winter items. I have yet to find a DIY button up pj set. Or maybe shackets? Winter dresses? Quilt jacket? Leggings? Love all your work! Thanks so much for teaching us all your ways

Hi Jess, I would really love to make this dress. Could you make a short segment what measurements I have to take from my body to make this dress to fit me?

@JessDangDIY 11 ай бұрын

You need to measure your body size which are bust, waist and hip size. Also need to measure the length from the shoulder to above the belly button which is the length of the bodice part. The length of the skirt part is the length from above the belly button to over the knee. The length of the sleeve is the length from the shoulder to above the elbow.

Hi Jess! A question. If I only make the top part, would it be enough for a shirt? Or will I have to change something else? Thank you very much for your tutorials!

@JessDangDIY 9 ай бұрын

If you want to make the top part only and turn it into a shirt, you need to adjust the darts a bit. Because the shirt is longer to your hip. So the width at the end of the top must be bigger than your hip size there

Can you please explain what did you mean by “measure the total width of the sleeve Lines at the front and back bodice”? Does it mean I need to find the sum of the length of both lines?

@JessDangDIY Жыл бұрын

Yes. At the pattern of the front and the back bodice, check the sleeve lines there and combine them together. Make sure you don't count the seam allowance
