In this session, I demonstrated how to transfer the draped bodice onto paper to create the pattern. I showed the steps to carefully pin the draped fabric onto the paper grid, then trace the stitching lines using a tracing wheel to mark the final pattern outline.

Lesson Steps:

• Pin the draped fabric onto paper grid without stretching
• Use a tracing wheel to mark stitching lines on paper
• Draw pattern outline following traced lines
• Mark important points like side seam, apex, center front
• Add seam allowances (I use 1cm, you can use 1/2 inch)
• Cut along seam allowance lines to complete bodice pattern
• Next step is cutting fabric using the final pattern
