In this session, I taught how to transfer the draped muslin pieces onto paper to create the pattern for the Vionnet dress bodice.

I demonstrated pinning the fabric carefully without stretching, separating the pieces, transferring markings, adding seam allowances, and creating facings for the neckline and armholes.

Lesson Steps:

• Pinned the draped muslin pieces onto paper without stretching the bias fabric
• Separated the pinned pieces one by one to transfer markings
• Transferred all markings like notches, apex, waist, etc. onto pattern paper
• Added seam allowances to each pattern piece
• Created facing patterns for the neckline and armholes by tracing 1″ away from edges
• Marked all notches, grainlines, and pattern information on the pieces
• Prepared to draft the skirt pattern in the next step
