I don't know about you, but I've pretty much always had to size up commercial patterns -- basically anything from Simplicity, Butterick, McCalls, or Vogue -- because they tend to only go up to a pattern size 22. This video covers my methods of how I make commercial patterns fit me (or anyone larger). Using the 1790's bodice pattern that American Duchess created for Simplicity, I will be covering sizing up the pattern, lengthening the pattern to fit both my 5'10" frame and my D-cup bust, and then mocking up and fitting the mockup to myself. Just wait till you see how different the final pattern looks! I also plan to make a video about sizing up one-size gridded patterns to plus sizes. Let me know if that's something you'd be interested in, or if you have other pattern-related topics you would like me to cover. *Resources* Simplicity 8941 pattern: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RHWWY2C?tag=onamzrebecc08-20&linkCode=ic5&ascsubtag=amzn1.infl.us.product&creativeASIN=B07RHWWY2C&ref=exp_ladyrebeccafashions_dp_vv_d American Duchess Vlog on changes to this pattern: https://blog.americanduchess.com/2021/01/pattern-notes-adjustments-for.html *Links* My instagram: http://instagram.com/ladyrebeccafashions Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/ladyrebeccafashions Help support my channel on Ko-Fi: http://ko-fi.com/ladyrebeccafashions My Favorite Sewing Tools: https://www.amazon.com/shop/ladyrebeccafashions?listId=34KSQ7UG5WTEM What I use for filming: https://www.amazon.com/shop/ladyr
