Just dowloaded Fitopedia, I definitely needed this as i'm pretty new to sewing. Can't wait to get started..

This is a great tutorial, just what my poorly-fitting muslin needs! I especially need the high rounded-back adjustment and I have a question about that. Do I necessarily need to keep that new shoulder dart that’s created? I mean, there’s already a design line with the raglan sleeve and I really don’t want another “line” added to the neck area. Can I rotate that dart to the raglan line or will that not work? Thank you for sharing your experience with us.

Hello from Ireland, I have just discovered your channel, can I please ask what type of fabric did you use to make the cargo shorts, thanks ☘
@SewSewLive 2 күн бұрын
I’ve used a few different canvases to make these. I think this particular pair is a very heavy cotton ripstop. You can see the square grid pattern on it. I found it at a discount fabric place otherwise I’d point you to where I got it.

It is indeed the pattern! Some traditional style drafts of collar stands have you ease the neckline. But I don’t think this is great for all fabrics. I ended up adjust the pattern. I make this one a few times each year!

@SewSewLive 16 күн бұрын
Not always! Many categorize waist as the narrowest location OR where you bend when you lean to the side OR where you think your waist is OR the navel. Theres lots of places it can be. Pick what is more logical to you so you stay consistent. And your word will move around year to year too.

Hi there - thanks for this, very helpful particularly for the placket! and for turning the yoke... However, you don't follow the pattern in places and I've noticed the instructions for construction of collar is unusual whereas you do what I expected to do - which is simpler. Do you think the drafting/instructions are needlessly complex for this tunic? Just wondering - since you obviously have heaps more experience than me! thanks in advance.
@SewSewLive 19 күн бұрын
I’m sure the drafting is just fine! There’s a lot of ways to construct things and when you have to explain to people how to sew it (as in writing the instructions), I imagine its easiest to rely on the greatest amount of information out there. Trying to explain a technique that one cannot google easily is going to be trickier for a pattern company. If they stick to traditional methods, then someone can find a tutorial if the instructions aren’t speaking to them. I sew things differently all the time. But it’s not because I think the original instructions are unnecessarily fussy all the time. (Sometimes yes haha!) I wish more industry techniques were common place. But they’re just not. And I have my favorite ways!
