Janet homework June 28, 2017

Great job on the knit tops!  Janet got all the homework done with flair!  It's always so nice to see students really succeed in creating garments they love to wear! 
Just to re-cap the Dolman sleeve: 

• Add sloper line from shoulder point to the sleeve length
• Measure down 5 cm and connect the front shoulder to the wrist
• Draw a right angle (using the previous line as an anchor) for the wrist
• At the side seam measure down 8 to 10 cm or whatever works for the wearer, from point D and connect to bottom of wrist
  
• Increase the neckline by 3 cm at the centre front and re-draw neckline
• Lower centre front 1.5 cm and re-draw hemline
• To separate sleeve measure down 5 cm from point C down the arm and mark
• Connect to side seam using French curve. 
• Add the back by raising point A 1 cm and raising the whole length of the arm 1 cm
• Curve slightly to shape the back neckline
• Trace pattern pieces
• Sleeve pattern pieces will be joined to form one sleeve instead of two halves, eliminating the need for a seam
• Once sleeve is completed and is seen open, add 2 cm ease to each side and re-draw the end as shown in graphic on page 84 

Homework is to sew together a zipper front jacket with stand up collar and Dolman sleeves.  Next class is July 13. 
Have a great couple of weeks!
