I bet when you started sewing that you didn't just dream of sewing something, you dreamed of sewing your own something.

Uniquely you in style, fit, shape for just you and your body.

It's something I hear all the time and that is I want to make my own sewing patterns.

Quickly followed with but I have no idea where to start

and maybe that's you and

if it is this video I'm going to talk through five different ways

that you can create your own sewing patterns made just for you.

Welcome back sewing friends.

I am really excited about today's topic because as the owner of a sewing school, I can tell you, I've heard this so often when you start sewing, right?

It's why I started sewing because I wanted to create my own unique stuff to fit me in my style.

I wanted, I couldn't find things at the shop and I wanted to make my own stuff.

And that comes with then, I want to be able to make my own patterns

because that's where it starts from right and

so we have the options of commercial patterns which is wonderful

because there are

so many options available to us in different styles sizes fits aesthetics there's a huge world out there

but it's still just not quite right is it

and you think I'm going to make my own patterns

and the can of worms the rabbit hole opens up

and you're left with like how

because there are more than one way to do anything in sewing

and particularly to be able to get your own patterns there are multiple ways

or avenues to get the same result in the end

and i've got five here with you today i've tried them all

and i also talk you through not only the options

but what maybe they're best for so you can figure out

if it is best for you in your situation too like what's going to work for you

and of course after much trial

and error as i said i have also in my sewing

school i also had the recommendation of what I think works best for most home sewers as well.

A way to make your own sewing patterns is to deconstruct a ready -made garment and create a pattern from it.

This happens all the time in the actual garment industry where they will buy usually designer

or sometimes even vintage garments and take them back to their workrooms.

They pull them apart and make patterns from them and then recreate them for their new fashion line.

But of course we can do it at home as well because you know you've got a favorite pair of jeans, that favorite blouse, that top that just fits oh so perfectly and you want to recreate it.

So you can do it by the easiest ways to pull apart the entire garment because you can get every seam, every curve, every everything.

There are methods to do this without taking the garment apart though it is a lot harder

and depends on the complexity of the garment as to whether how well

that works but this is really great

if you have say your favorite t -shirt your favorite pair of fitting pants to use

and it's a simple design you can probably get away with

just kind of deconstructing it without having to take your favorite

pair of pants apart you'll see at the end where I

talk about this where often a combination of these styles is where it works

and this is really great to reference the clothes

that you like we'll talk about

that later on you can modify an existing pattern be it a block a sloper a commercial pattern

and alter it to customize it to make your own pattern from there.

So this is using a flat pattern method where you have your 2D paper pattern pieces and we're, you know, reconstructing and redesigning them.

This is really quite accessible because there are so many commercial patterns available.

You've got blocks and slopers and the better fitting that block or sloper is to your body already, the less work you have to do.

So if you can take a well fitting one

and then make changes

so you can change the neckline change the hemline change from princess seams to darts

and change it up so it's the style that you want

so you pick something that is similar to your style

and then you change it up a little bit to be

your new style this happens again a lot in industry

when you see when you go into a store

and they have the same theme and vibe right

so anyone in Australia will know review I used to love their clothes you go in there

and it's all the same kind of like fitted dress right and it's just different versions of that same dress right

you've seen other stores do this that's because they're using the same block pattern

that same like master pattern and then just changing it up

so they're doing pleats on this skirt scoop neck on

that one you know sleeves on this one

and they're just changing it up and just like you

when you get a pattern envelope and you see

that there's different versions of the same dress it's the same thing

so you can learn to make all those little changes off a base pattern so you can draft from scratch.

So you can basically create that starting blocked sloper from scratch from your body measurements.

This is done a lot in my vintage sewing books that I see.

And they have all of these plotted out numbers of like

go up this far out this far to create all the curves and everything like that.

There are different systems

that you can use to sort of plot out using your own body measurements to get that starting sloper.

It's just a different way to to get to that result. So.

Again, you would want to either, you usually do that to start to create a block pattern to start with, and then you put the design on top of that basic kind of like plain garment.

And then you would design on top of that, you know, add your different design features and different like style of the garment after that.

This can be tricky because it does require a lot of pattern making knowledge

because you just know what shapes should look like, curves, what they should look like putting in all the right measurements

and all the right spots

and then having to design the actual pattern like your your garment then after it rather than just a block

so there is quite a lot of work involved

and I definitely think it's you know a higher level of entry to get into that one.

You can create your own patterns by draping so you use your fabric

and you create

and drape on a 3D object i .e the mannequin you've seen all those YouTube videos

and short Instagram reels of people like draping

and creating a garment from the mannequin this is what we

call draping method rather than the flat pattern method this is draping

so you kind of use the mannequin as your body

and you drape and you create the design of the garment on there

so you either have the choice

if you're making a one -off you can just sew it as is

or you take that off and then create a pattern from those pattern pieces

that you draped and marked on the mannequin a lot of pros

and negatives against that one it um is really great because

if you're really visual you think that seems great I'll just like drape it

100

and pin it where I want it and it can work like

101

that generally if you're doing a one -off I say

102

that does work really great you can just do it

103

when you're trying to create a pattern from

104

that it gets a bit harder

105

because you kind of have to make sure you have to do all the math right

106

because when you drape it that seems not the side is

107

that so you have to like match them all up make sure the back ones match up whereas

108

if you start with a sloper all

109

that kind of math to getting all the pattern pieces even to one another is already done

110

but from draping from scratch you have to make sure

111

that you do all of that and the other thing is is

112

that well I don't know about you

113

but it's really hard to find a mannequin that's exactly your body size

114

so very often uh you will see lots of people doing it

115

but they happen to be quite nice and slim and trim

116

and just happen to sort of fit the the mannequin size size

117

and it's not impossible you could just make your own mannequin

118

right I have a whole course in vintage sewing school on

119

how to like recreate your body shape even not just your size

120

but your shape into a mannequin and make your me mannequin as I call it

121

and so then you could drape onto that mannequin

122

but again still the same principles apply like that's a whole

123

nother thing you have to do is get your mannequin to your size

124

and then you have to learn the draping and everything like

125

that and if it's a one -off

126

or repeatable item you need to consider your in -time investment for it So there's lots of pros and cons there.

127

And then finally, you could have someone else make your pattern for you.

128

Yeah, it is a thing.

129

So you can actually contract out whether it's a local dress maker, someone of factory nearby or on fiverr .com online,

130

you can have someone make a pattern for you, be it in person or like, or a digital version, you know, digitally create the pattern.

131

You know, they're just different methods to create a pattern that you can still do the same.

132

So you absolutely.

133

If you're just well off and maybe that's worth the investment for you, that it's just in the way too hard basket, you really want your own pattern fitted to you, your body measurements, have someone else do it.

134

It might be worth it.

135

So what do I recommend though?

136

Because that's a lot of options and they're all quite different.

137

And well, as I was talked about earlier, often a combination of these is what is good,

138

but my preferred method and my one that I recommend to all my students because I think it gives us the most, it's a lot of work to create a pattern.

139

So you want to get the most amount of reward for that effort that you put in.

140

So what I found is that using a block pattern, a sloper, an existing commercial pattern, i .e preferably one that fits you well,

141

we'll get to that, then making changes to that is what works best.

142

So one, invest your time and effort energy into finding a simple, what I call a block pattern.

143

So it's just a basic shift dress, for example, right?

144

Or a basic a -line skirt or a basic pant, right?

145

These are our block patterns.

146

Invest the time in making all the mock -ups, all the twiles, all the everything that's required to get that to fit you really nice.

147

Because then once you do, you can just make a few small changes to the pattern to create a whole nother garment, right?

148

A whole nother look of a different thing.

149

So for example, on a dress, you can change the neckline, you can change the skirt to be pleats to be a

150

shift you can change where the darts are you can add

151

a short sleeve a long sleeve you can add a poofy

152

balloon sleeve you can you see what i mean right these are all little changes just like we talked about

153

when you look at the pattern envelope

154

and there's like six different styles you can learn to do

155

that very easily and when you've already invested the time

156

and energy into creating the right size

157

and fit pattern block all those fundamental print like pattern making foundational skills

158

that you've had to learn there to get that right.

159

That's all you need to then be able to do the design features that you want to change it up.

160

And so it's very little work at that point once you've got your pattern that fits you quite well.

161

That investment, that time, I feel is highly rewarded

162

when you just then change it up a little bit to create a new design.

163

And each time you do the design, I mean, you trace off the pattern and you make a whole another pattern.

164

You label it.

165

You give it a fancy name like all the pattern companies do.

166

You take records, photographs, because then that is that pattern

167

and you can just go

168

when you change like next time you want to make something you pick up

169

that new pattern

170

and you just make it all of the hard work of the fitting the designing the everything is already done

171

and that's when sewing becomes really quite quick is when we take

172

that all the pattern making out of the equation

173

so a combination of this is using that but then looking at clothes

174

that you already own not to say clone them

175

but to use them as examples you can measure ah the

176

crotch depth is this I look at the curve of the

177

crotch underneath for a pair of pants for example look at

178

how long the bodice into the waist is on your favorite dress

179

and it hits just at your waist you measure and you replicate

180

that on your block pattern so using your garments

181

that you use as references not say deconstructing them from scratch

182

then I would also use the mannequin not to drape a pattern

183

but I use it to have a look and like help design along the way so you can put it on, you can stand back, you have a look, you play around, you pin things on there,

184

pin things on there, and you see how well it works as you do stuff.

185

Not actually draping the pattern, but just using it to assess your design and style and make sure everything's flowing really nicely along in the process.

186

I have one final thought for you to ponder before you go off trying to make your own patterns.

187

And that is when you say, when people come to me and they say, I want to make my own patterns.

188

I say fantastic.

189

I am so excited for you.

190

The next thing I would say is that, well, when you do make your own pattern, remember that pattern that you make yourself doesn't come with sewing instructions.

191

So can you sew a pattern, any pattern, can you just pick up any pattern and sew it without written or anything sewing instructions?

192

I know now I really got you thinking.

193

So it is another consideration to make.

194

If you make it from scratch, it doesn't come with any sewing instructions.

195

So you need to have a certain level of sewing skill to be able to make something up.

196

And that is another reason why I think starting with commercial patterns

197

or a block or a sloper

198

that already has some sewing instructions with it is helpful because you can just make your slight alterations,

199

but the sewing methods will still pretty much be the same because it's almost identical, you know, like it's very similar style.

200

So you've got that help, that back up the support with those sewing instructions as well.

201

So just something for you to ponder when you think I want to make my own patterns.

202

I'll be making a follow -up video shortly about how to create your own pattern when you have non -standard measurements, right?

203

You're thinking that sounds great.

204

I've got a block, a slope, a commercial pattern, but my body measurements are nowhere near that.

205

How do I even start doing that process?

206

That's what I'm going to make a follow -up video about so I'd love to hear all your questions, pain, struggles down below because I'll help answer them in that next video.

207

Until next time my sewing friends, happy sewing.

208

Bye!

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
