@@tatianaacademy7007 Hi, pattern workshop only focuses on adobe illustrator which you can use for digitising! I prefer pad system but as a beginner with a small budget adobe illustrator is great. 😊 even if you use pad system you will still need adobe illustrator if you plan to make sewing patterns (for layout, layers etc). In pattern workshop there’s even a chapter about how to digitise your paper patterns! /Josefine

@@PloenPatterns Thank you very much! How much would it cost to learn Pad system? So best is to start with the workshop adobe ill. and then maybe progress with Pad System I understand? Thank you dear! Best, Tatiana

@@tatianaacademy7007 yes that’s what I did and I would recommend that way. You don’t need everything right from the beginning. Pad system costs $45/month I think and it’s quite easy to learn. Especially if you are familiar with adobe programs. I learned without a course or anything. Just their tutorials and a lot of time. I’ve been thinking about creating a training course all about Pad system. Maybe I will have it available by the time you want to learn 😇 Good luck! 👏

@@PloenPatterns Wonderful thank you very much!

@@mad14kt thank you 🥰

@@elizabethsaint5804 it’s a similar process. I go more in depth about different kinds of bust adjustments in Better Fit Academy (my online course). For a t shirt pattern you would add the same lines to the pattern and spread the amount you need. You can choose to add a dart or just add width and length. /Josefine

@@afrinakaliyath6147 yes it’s such a big part of it! Good luck with your patterns! :)

@@张泽彬 I don’t understand the question…? Could you rephrase?

Glad you enjoyed it! 🥳

Glad you enjoyed the video!

Usually use that for new sewing projects or give it someone in need, resell it for cheap or put it into a second hand store. There's so many options. My favourite is sewing new things out of it. A teddy bear from y little brother. Use it for the material or stuffing. Or giving it to people in need. Especially the nicer things I don't wanna destroy I give them to people in need because they deserve good things too and not just a shabby pair of pants that will break within a month. 😅

I don’t understand what you’re asking. You mean how to replace the sheets…? I find sheets for example at a thrift shop or online. Often times they are too worn to be able to use as sheets (holes etc) but there are still parts that are in good condition and those are the parts I use for clothes. Hope that answers your question, otherwise let me know :)

No problem! 🙏🏼 🌼

Thank you! So excited to teach this course 🤩👏✂️

Thank you for watching! ✂️

I’m so glad you found it helpful! Let me know if you have any questions or struggle with anything regarding fit! 🥳

@@PloenPatterns Thank you! My question is about the interpretation of garment models, and how much ease to put in a piece so that it has its style, for example, jogger pants have looser hips, and mom jeans have a high waist and also a looser hip, but how much more or less of ease? I don't know if I explained the better way. Thank you!

@@karinalss do you mean when drafting a pattern? Or fitting a sewing pattern you bought from a pattern company? Either way it depends on the design. Joggers are often made out of a fabric with stretch and mom jeans can be made from a non stretch denim for example. I would guess the mom jeans had more ease than the joggers in this case. It also depends on the style of joggers- if they are close fitting or more lose. You would have to experiment if you are creating your own pattern and for a pattern you bought - check the intended ease by comparing body mmts to finished garment mmts! Hope that helps :)

@@PloenPatterns Thank you! I mean when we draft a pattern. But your answer helped me! thank you so much.

Yes I agree, that’s why I use pad system :)

What do you want to know specifically? :) I can make an updated version, some things have changed since I made this video. Happy to help! /J

Thank you for watching! :)

Hi, congratulations on starting your business! For my patterns I make instructions with illustrations and I also do video tutorials for all my patterns. For some of them I also do a blog post with photos. I haven’t calculated how much time each pattern takes. It really depends. I just pick a price that seems reasonable, considering other patterns on the market and how complicated the design is. For my printed paper patterns I calculate the cost and make sure there’s enough margin for wholesale and then profit. Hope that helps!

Hehe thank you ☺️ I’m just waiting for the baby now… have to be doing something! 😅

@@PloenPatterns you sound like your going to be an amazing mother

Your so talented

Hi, what do you mean “the cuts”? 😇 /Josefine

what kind of program do you use to make patterns in pdf?

I use padsystem for pattern making and then export to Adobe Illustrator to create the layout for at home printing and adding all the necessary info etc! 😊

Thanks for watching! I’m glad you found it helpful 🥰

Thank you Karin! And those are great ideas!! 🥳

Me too! 🤩

Thank you! It’s coming!! 🥳

I use Adobe Illustrator 👍🏼

Thank you! Yes, do it! 🥳👍🏼✂️✨

My boyfriend made it for me. The table top is from his work and then I just bought the legs. They are adjustable and I think they cost less than 50€ 😇

I actually find my vintage machine very quiet also! But I understand what you mean. It’s nice to be able to sew at night without disturbing your neighbours 😍

I’m glad you like the pattern! 🥳💚
