With this weeks post of the pattern solution and details I firstly must apologise for the delay in posting. It turns out my original pattern shape was not entirely accurate. As I prepared this post I realised that the pattern shape would not necessarily achieve the fit I had sketched in the design drawing. This is not an uncommon problem when translating design drawings to actual patterns, which is why we often have to sample a couple of times to perfect the fit.
If you'd like to learn my method for creating Twist Drape Patterns I have a detailed worksheet for making Jersey Twist Patterns. For just a few dollars you'll get the same training you'd get if you came to the workshop in my studio.
do you add to the CF by slashing and spreading? and if so how much
ReplyDeleteI would estimate about 10 cm, or twice the amount of fold back attached to the waistband. Just enough to get a good amount of drape out of the twist. All these styles take a little experimenting before they are fully solved. Thanks for dropping by to comment. :)
DeleteThankyou I love your blog!
ReplyDeleteThx :)
Deletewhat is CF?.....i love all the patterns in your blog but i have difficulty in interpreting them. i
ReplyDeleteHi Amuche, thanks for dropping by. CF stands for centre front. Don't be too hard on yourself, these are difficult patterns to cut. Even those training as pattern makers would have trouble with some of these puzzles. Let me know if you have any questions. :)
DeleteHello
ReplyDeleteWould you share which is point of twist waistband in CF
Thanks for dropping by. If you fold the waistbands in half. then twist them around each other to come back and join onto the waist seam. I hope this helps. If not please come back with more questions. :)
DeleteDo you offer step by step instructions for this skirt and other patterns in your blog? I wish you were in the states. I would love to take some of your classes.
ReplyDeleteHi Dahnyelle, thanks for dropping by the blog. Happy to answer any of your questions as you work through our pattern making instructions. The only written instructions are above and I check blog comments at least twice a day. We are based in sydney Australia. Is that any closer to you?
