In this session, I demonstrated how to turn the controlled flare skirt into a pattern.
I explained the crucial measurements needed, like the center front length, side lengths, and showed how to draft the pattern pieces on paper.
Lesson Steps:
- Measured the center front length, side lengths, and determined the waist placement
- Drew the center front line and marked the waist point
- Extended the side seam lines from the waist point to create the flare
- Marked the hem lengths based on measurements
- Added seam allowances and grainline markings
- Explained how to cut the fabric using the pattern, considering fabric width
- Discussed potential fabric yardage needed based on the skirt length
