I especially enjoyed how Kalpana explains about measurement taking and all the bodice blocks methods she taught, from the most simple bodice to the most detailed one. Dart manipulation and pattern drafting was covered as well, which I found to be very helpful and pretty comprehensive. I can’t wait to make my own patterns now!
