Let's compare different drafting techniques to draw the Jeans pattern foundation. Drafting books normally come with the basic trouser block and not this one. Today we will be comparing 2 different drafting techniques based on some books I love. The Jeans foundation is supposed to fit tightly around your body and follow its shape. It normally has between 2.5cm(1inch) ease around the thighs. This pattern block tends to have a shorter crotch length than expected and some modifications are needed. This was the case for one of the drafting methods so I tried fixing it by adding the needed length on the back hip line only. ⌛️CHAPTERS⏳ 00:00 The start 02:03 Drafting the pattern 03:05 Drafting - Helen Joseph-Armstrong 04:06 Drafting - Winifred Aldrich 05:04 Drafting - Fixes to Helen's pattern 05:35 Drafting - Comparison 08:03 Fitting - Helen Joseph-Armstrong 08:47 Fitting - Fixed Helen Joseph-Armstrong 09:36 Fitting - Winifred Aldrich 10:14 The winner ✏️PATTERNS✏️ Book n.1: Patternmaking for Fashion Design - Helen Joseph-Armstrong (Fifth Edition) Book n.2: Metric pattern cutting for women's wear - Winifred Aldrich Thank you for being here🌱 ⭐My website: https://nuriamo.com ⭐Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/_nuriamo/ ⭐Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/_nuriamo/ ⭐Subscribe to my channel: https://www.youtube.com/@_nuriamo My sewing supplies and gear recommendations: https://www.amazon.com/shop/nuriamo * links with * are affiliate links, the prices do not change on your end but I do receive a small commission.
