BODICE PATTERN ALTERATION | BASIC PATTERN MAKING | LA MODÉLISTE

Pattern Making Basics: Hello everyone! here's a new tutorial for Bodice Patterns Alterations. This is a quick lesson for those who want to learn the correct way to decrease the ease of your patterns. Alterations are very important in the Pattern Making and Fashion world, it helps us fix what's wrong with our patterns, toiles, and get the right fit to achieve our goal designs for our bodice. In this video, I talked a lot about ease and gaping or stresses on the armhole mostly. Getting the right fit at the armhole area is very important especially if you are on the next step of Basic Pattern Making Foundation which is the Basic Sleeve Block / Sloper. i hope this video helped you solve your problems with ease and gapings!
