In this lesson, I taught how to create a basic sheath dress pattern sloper with ease. I demonstrated how to trace the muslin pieces, draw the darts, and make necessary adjustments. I also explained how to modify the pattern for different dress styles, including sheath, shift, and boxy silhouettes.
Lesson Steps:
- Trace muslin pieces onto dot paper
- Draw and adjust darts for front and back pieces
- Mark dart points and widths
- Check and adjust side seams
- Add ease and make necessary corrections
- Draw and smooth hemline
- Add information and markings to the pattern
- Explain modifications for different dress styles (sheath, shift, boxy)
- Add seam allowances
- Label pattern pieces with necessary information
