Pattern Cutting Lesson !

As part of me catching up with pattern cutting and handing in my final yearly project I had to complete a dress on the straight grain and a dress on the bias. I have then wrote a few notes comparing the differences so I can have a refernce of this If i ever need to come back to this in future.

Comparing a dress on the bias to a dress on the straight grain…

Basic notes on the differences between the two dresses…
- The dress on the straight grain was easier to sew than the dress on the bias.
- The dress on the bias was difficult to sew because the fabric kept moving under the sewing machine this then made it difficult to match up the seam allowances.
- The dress on the bias goes over the body in a more fluent manner where as the dress on the straight grain is more constructed.
- The hem on the bias dress is more wavey to the straight grain dress.
