In this lesson, I taught how to create a princess line skirt foundation-sloper. I demonstrated how to true the pattern pieces, add length, and create variations such as straight, tapered, A-line, and flared skirts. I also explained how to add ease and use this sloper as a base for future designs.
Lesson Steps:
- Transfer and true the pattern pieces at the waist and hip lines
- Add length to create a basic straight skirt
- Create variations: tapered, A-line, and flared skirts
- Blend curves and adjust lines for a smooth silhouette
- Add ease to the waist and hip (1 inch or 2 centimeters overall)
- Label pattern pieces and add necessary information
- Use the sloper as a base for creating different skirt styles and fabrics
