Have you ever tried to sew a garment using a vintage pattern reissued from one of the major pattern companies but it didn't turn out quite like you wanted it to? Do you wish you could draft your own sewing patterns but it feels rather intimidating?
This video examines what the Big 4 pattern makers don't want you to know about commercial or ready-made patterns. It also demonstrates how to make Mrs. Depew's 1950s slip pattern in less than an hour using a vintage draft-at-home pattern-making process. The French pattern-making process is an ideal way to fearlessly draft your own patterns that fit you perfectly and make you feel fabulous!
