HOW TO TAKE FULL BODY MEASUREMENTS | Beginners Sewing Tips

Hi loves!
In this video, I’ll be showing you how to take full body measurements for yourself (and possible others). Like me, if you make your own clothes or you’re learning, then you should know how to measure yourself. You’ll need it for accurate pattern making, sewing, and even online shopping. So here's how!

This might be a dumb question but when you measure anything, do you start from the Metal tip at the end or 1 ?

[@boitumelomolefe6365]

You start at the metal tip- the zero mark

[@officialkarishma_na4230]

No question is evr dumb i had the same question actually

[@FredForestArt]

I have been searching the web for answers for too long now, and I don't know who to ask...
Now I know how to take body measurements, but what now? How do I apply these measurements? How do I translate my body measurements into tailored clothes?
Would love to see a tutorial on how to apply this newly acquired knowledge

Hi, thank you so much for this! I just have a question about the bust measurements. Should you take those with or without a bra? Is it dependant on the garment, or should you always measure the bust with a bra on?

[@happypenguin25]

I want to know the answer to this as well please!

[@lesleyark8415]

With bra

[@euniceyeboah4853]

You are the best ❤

[@ruthdoe8669]

[@TanyaOwens]

The Rise part isn't clear - what is the rise and how far down do I go?

[@octobii584]

Thank you! Concise and to the point, very helpful

[@DIYwithIghoandme]

You're welcome!

[@cathycorrea541]

Thank you 🙏

[@LydiaAshley]

Quick question! My pattern calls for a back waist measurement, would this be the same as measuring nape of neck to waist or is this just the width of the waist in the back?

[@DIYwithIghoandme]

Hi Lydia! Definitely the nape to waist measurement

[@LydiaAshley]

@@DIYwithIghoandme thank you!

[@sandrasoler7850]

Thank you 🙏🏼

[@DebtDemolisherTV]

Thank you so much for this!

[@lizzlizz9364]

Another question isthree any different between bust pan and nipple to nipple, can I use my nipple to nipple measurement to make my A line skirt

[@caramelrose7187]

Hi measurements to take to make a dress?

[@teenazless]

Very nice video. The only issue I see is that most do not know where their waist is!

[@toyinoyeneye8902]

Great 👍 👌

[@Daniellextina87]

Came to youtube because of online shopping 🛍️ 🙃

[@mcanultymichelle]

O my gosh. You are gorgeous.

[@kriyak6629]

"How can you determine customer measurements for creating outfits without directly measuring them, especially for exhibition purposes?"

[@IssaSia]

you did not measure length of skirt.

[@dalmacintron4782]

I cant hear you

[@marygracemartinez-delrosar74]

Thank you!
