marylandcakes: @ OP If I need this sleeve to be short, just before the elbow, what kind of adjustments do I need to make to this pattern? Also what kind of material is best for this design? 1 Like |

AbbynHummy: A fashion designer is not a 'Magazine style' Crafts Man or Woman. A fashion designer would look at the client and be creative, make a dress that suits the clients body type. What we have all over the place are tailors, if there is passion for this kinda craft then that passion would take you through learning it the right way. Thumbs up to you OP, I am yet to get around making videos. Whats your take on the Fairgate Fashion Designer carryall case, I am thinking of upgrading to it? |

Re: Sewing for beginners by marylandcakes: 7:57pm On Feb 07, 2018 |
mrsojiugo: Thanks for your lovely comments. You will need to tell me more about this carry all before I am able to give my opinion. |
Re: Sewing for beginners by marylandcakes: 8:14pm On Feb 07, 2018 |
Rubyventures: @Rubyventures thanks for your questions. 1 the only adjustment you will need is to fold the pattern to your desired length and cut. Since the ends are right angles, you should have no problem. 2. Any kind of material is good for this design as long as it’s not too hard. The best kind of material is the slippery type. |

marylandcakes: Thanks. I was thinking of using Velvet |
Re: Sewing for beginners by marylandcakes: 7:25am On Feb 09, 2018 |
Rubyventures: Yes velvet will be very good for this style. |

mrsojiugo: How much is this? |
Re: Sewing for beginners by mrsojiugo(f): 12:33pm On Feb 12, 2018 |
Rubyventures: N53,250.00 - I needed to get a second opinion and have it. I use the same plastic brand you see in the videos uploaded previously, but you know how it can be with plastic. If not for my embroidery machine and its accessory which I had planned for 1st quarter 2018, I would have included it as well. |
Re: Sewing for beginners by Rubyventures: 1:12pm On Feb 12, 2018 |
mrsojiugo: If you have got most of those rulers already, I would suggest don't buy it for now, at the end of the day whether it is plastic or metal they do the same job. It all boils down to how you take care of your tools. |
Re: Sewing for beginners by marylandcakes: 8:28pm On Feb 13, 2018 |
mrsojiugo: I think you should concentrate on getting your embroidery machine for now. |
Re: Sewing for beginners by mrsojiugo(f): 1:49pm On Feb 15, 2018 |
marylandcakes: Thanks Dear...I just got delivery of it, na the software now to digitalize my designs that I am waiting for. Cant wait to start making new applique projects and dope embroidery. |
Re: Sewing for beginners by Rubyventures: 1:52pm On Feb 15, 2018 |
mrsojiugo: It is my dream to get an embroidery machine one day. Please share your design and tips here. good luck |
Re: Sewing for beginners by marylandcakes: 6:12am On Feb 16, 2018 |
mrsojiugo: Congratulations! Very nice to hear this. I hope you will feature your designs for us to see. Have you got a YouTube channel? |
Re: Sewing for beginners by cherryice(f): 9:40am On Feb 17, 2018 |
marylandcakes:hi but can you use same draft pattern for different body sizes? Since u say draft patterns are reusable |
Re: Sewing for beginners by marylandcakes: 9:50am On Feb 17, 2018 |
cherryice: When I said re usable I meant for example if you have a bodice pattern for size 12 . You can use it for anyone that is a size 12. You can’t use it for a size 18. You might be able to use it for one size smaller or bigger by adjusting it a bit. For one size smaller just take off the sewing allowance and for one size bigger double the allowance. 1 Like |

marylandcakes:thanks for this. Pls I have some questions concerning draping |
Re: Sewing for beginners by cherryice(f): 10:06am On Feb 17, 2018 |
Please how are drapings like in these pictures done? What material do they use in making the drdrapes stand like that? I habe always wondered

Re: Sewing for beginners by marylandcakes: 9:58pm On Feb 18, 2018 |
cherryice: You are welcome. What’s the question? |
Re: Sewing for beginners by marylandcakes: 10:05pm On Feb 18, 2018 |
cherryice: What you do with this kind of design. You use wading, or stay. This can be ironed on to the material to stiffen it. Any kind of material can be used for this design. It depends on the experience of the tailor. For a beginner I would stay away from soft fabrics like silk, satin or chiffon etc 1 Like |

Re: Sewing for beginners by mrsojiugo(f): 10:55am On Feb 21, 2018 |
Rubyventures: I will share my designs... I am currently trying to make up my mind on two software that would give me full control of any design pattern to be embroidered. The prizes for the software's no be here. Yet again functionality would be the base of my choice. |

mrsojiugo: I don’t have a studio, all I have is just a small sewing area. That looks very nice. You can take pictures of the stages to get to the final product. |
