General Information: Drafting the Bodice Block (Superceded Version)
Please note that I have since revised my Bodice Block instructions; my system has changed significantly. Please see my YouTube channel for my step-by-step videos using my revised system. The reason I have left these older written instructions on my website as they still work pretty well for most people and they are the only FREE written instructions I have. The only way to access my new revised system in written form is through my Ko-Fi shop and they cost $10.00. I would encourage people to use my new system available on my YouTube channel instead of using these written instructions on my website. All the information below relate to the written instructions on my website, not the instructions on my YouTube channel.

Hi,
I love your website! beautiful and very informative.
could you show how to take those measurements?
some of them are not so clear (:
Thank you!
Hello Natali
I have been wanting to make a video on taking measurements for some time. I have a couple of problems; one is limited time to spend on my website at the moment, the second is finding a model for the video. The problems related to the model include COVID issues (can’t keep 1.5 metres distance when measuring someone) and finding a model (who I can measure) at an affordable rate, as I don’t earn enough money to cover my costs on this website!.
Basically when I can, I will. That will still be a month or two from now.
Thank you for sharing all these awesome resources. Will the measurements be updated (adding Bust Depth @ Side Seam “J to K’, Upper Bust Arcs, Bust Arcs) to follow along with the new March 2022 Bodice Videos? I couldn’t find them but would find it so helpful to follow along as you draft. Thanks!
Hello Carla
If you watch BOTH:
(1) The Measurements video, AND
(2) The beginning of the March 2022 Bodice Front Instructions Video, then you will have all the necessary information for taking measurements.
(I.e. The Measurements video had a few mistakes, but those mistakes are explained, together with the corrections at the beginning of the Bodice Front Instructions March 2022 video).
(I’m a little confused thought… you say “will the measurements be updated.. to include the Bust Arc”…. are you referring to the Measurements Video? (My confusion is that the Bust Arcs and Bust Depth at Side Seam are included in the Measurements video… I’ll include a link in case you haven’t seen it).
Anyway… the two videos I have mentioned will get you the information you need.
Cheers
Maria
