Transcript

Okay, so what you want to do next is to create the Dart. The slides here are known as the legs, the legs of the Dart, the end of the Dart is known as the vanishing point. Here's the other dark. And this is the apex, the vanishing point, the end of the dark, never goes to the apex, you want to back away from the apex, anywhere between a half inch and three quarters of an inch. So from the apex, you go a half inch or three quarters and then you draw the legs of the dark like that. Okay, next we fold the dark clothes like this, and we put the pins in a certain direction.

So if this is the jar, we Put the pin perpendicular to the Dart. We closed the Dart and we add similar ones. Normally we have a quarter of an inch seam allowance at the neckline, half inch seam allowance at the shoulder half inch at the armhole if there's a sleeve, half inch at the side seam and half inch at the waistline. Next, you want to transfer all this information from the muslin from the drape on to data paper to create a pattern. So all these cross lines are these the legs of the Dart, for example, all these cross marks seam allowance using a tracing wheel. Either it looks like this.

Or here's another variation. You take your Muslim you're drinking And you either pin it to the data paper, Penny Penny Penny, or scotch tape, scotch tape, scotch tape, and you trace all this information on to data paper so that you end up with a pattern that looks like that. Okay. And that's how you create a basic pattern. And so again, like I said earlier, it's a good idea to take a course in pattern making either mine or somebody because pattern making and draping. As you can see, they go hand in hand, they work together in conjunction with each other.

So it's good to know pattern making. The last final step is to pin the dotted paper onto the form to make sure that it looks good and it's perfect and all that so that's what pattern making and draping. The next class I'm going to show you how to do a one Dart. All right.
