    I smiled all through this tutorial. I'm excellent at using the slash and spread method for creating drapes but I couldn't resist watching this. Nick's energy is so so contagious!

    At the start I was so confused when you started cutting the sections out. But once you start taping them down I understood how you would cut the pattern out with the extra fabric to drape. What an awesome technique. 💖

    This is amazing and so enlightening, thank you so much for sharing this knowledge with us. You are so happy, energetic and enthusiastic that you make gown draping look very easy :) I am a beginner sewer and I don't have that much imagination in order to figure things out for myself :( Therefore I consider your videos like liquid gold, pure joy and total understanding of the whole process. Greetings all the way from Romania and thank you again for sharing.

  • @corinnew6569

    I just found your videos the other day. You are so inspiring! This video is exactly what I was looking for! I struggle with patterns, as I'm a 6'3" (Kibbe soft dramatic). I cannot get a dress form that works, because of my height. So all patterns have to be lengthened from shoulders to bust, then from bust to waist, then hem length. Seriously, who wants the waist of the dress around the bust line??!! Then trying to make it drape nicely without the dress form?
    Thank you so much! This video really, really means a lot to me! I would love to see more soft dramatic or grecian style tutorials without a dress form. Also, it would be very helpful if you included how to make your patterns for us tall ladies! (How much extra fabric needed, and how to figure that out. Actually, a video specifically on how to deal with unusual size or physical issues would be fantastic!))
    Thank you!!
