Checklist: • 1/2 inch ease at side seam/armhole • 1/8 inch ease across front chest area without pulling • 1/4 inch ease across back shoulder blade level • Draped side seams align with dress form side seam. • Side seam draped together without pulling, twisting or distorting. Notching: Once we have both pattern pieces cut out, its time to notch. We'll need the CF/neck & waist, CB/neck & waist, Shoulder & Waist darts & armhole. For the Front & Back Armhole Notch measure 3 inches away from SS. Note that the back armhole gets two notches. So measure 1/2 inch from the 3 inch point & notch. Marking our patterns: First open our patterns so they are mirrored. The front bodice shouldn't be a problem, but the back bodice since they are two separate pieces, we should have a right and left back bodice. 1. Start by Marking the Front Bodice, grain line, Pattern Piece Name, Size & Cut # (circle the cut number). 2. For the Back Bodice mark the, grain line, Pattern Piece Name, Size & Cut # (circle the cut number). 3. Like I said in this episode, I'm going to make a separate tutorial explaining all you need to know about marking your patterns.
