Hello madam Ara, Pls i need your help on how to cut a perfect sleeve and how to draft an armhole perfectly too. from your previous post, there's a place you used 6.5 for the armhole length which is quite confusing. I normally use 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5 depending on the stature of the person. kindly explain better. Am new here and I really love what am seeing when I gone tru all your previous post. Infant I was impressed to see a genius. May God bless you abundantly. looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks ma |

Thx for ur comments, firstly armhike can br a headache really but thr easiest method is to start of by taking good measurement to make your work very easy, l start off by measuring the persons armhole circumference that really helps l hear people using general figures but l always like to be sure so l measure all my customers armhole. Afterwards if its confusing for u to draft d sleeve, use the armhole of the clothe after joining to plot the sleeve head. Also l would like to see a pix of what u know then l cn help.further. |
