How to Make a Kebaya Pattern, Part 1: Back Pattern
Hi, in this video, I'll try to create a pattern for the back of a kebaya. I'll show you step-by-step instructions so it's not confusing and easy to understand (I hope).
Good luck, I hope this tutorial is easy to understand. Here's the pattern formula:
●Back pattern formula:
1. A-B = back length
2. BC up 2 cm
3. C-D = 1/6 neck circumference + 1/2 cm
4. D-E = shoulder length/width
5. E-F = down 3 cm
6. Connect B and D, then D and F
7. B-G = 12 cm down
8. G-H = 1/2 back width
9. B-I = 1/2 back length + 2 cm
10. I-J = 1/4 body circumference
11. Connect F-H-J
12. A-k = 1/4 waist circumference + 2 cm
13. A-A' = 1/10 waist circumference + 1 cm
A'-X = 3 cm, divide the middle two and draw a line up and down 12 cm.
14. A-L = hip height
15. L-M = 1/4 hip circumference
16. A-N = kebaya/dress length from waist
17. N-O = L-M, then connect O, M, and K
