EFOSAVAL:
[size=18pt]IRO AND BUBA TUTORIAL.[/size]
Hello everyone, am new here though, have been following this thread but as a guest I just read up to I must confess, Efosa you are indeed a pro. If you can take your time to be doing this, you are indeed a god sent. You have touched lots of us(if I must say)by making us creative. As you have blessed so many with this, thy good Lord we continue to touch your home,business and all that you wish to become in life shall be granted. Already have bought my machine when I found this tutorial interesting and have started with the IRO and BUBA. I will post it soon or now if I can. WELL DONE EFOSA.

This is very simple and you can make it your self.

When making buba u must consider the hip measurement first because as long as it fits the hip it will likely fit the waist and bust. considering that the hip is bigger.

1, what ever your hip is you need about 1.5 to 2 inches on both side for freeness on the buba.

2, Next determine your desired length Fold fabric into 4 using the hip + ease + seam allowance to cut your buba

Eg my hip is 44
Folded into 4 i will have 44÷4=11
To that 11 inches on 4 folds I added 2 inch each for ease and seam alowance
Now instead of 11 inch on 4 folds I have 13 inch on 4 folds.

Buba sleeve. usually it's measured from the center part of the neck down to the wrists.onlike tops and dresses that have the shoulder to armpit area cut away for a buba we don't cut it out its included in the sleeve measurement

My sleeve length is 31
31-13 =18 + (what ever seam allowance you want for the hem ) = sleeve length.

The sleeve circumference is usually big so it ranges from 8 to 10 for average ladies. Bigger ladies would use more than 10 inch for their sleeve circumference. For mine I used 10 +half inch seam

Neck line
Along the length of the neck I used 5 inches .on the breath I used 4 inches .and cut out.

Next I traced out the pattern I wanted the beads to have and after sewing I just filled in the space.and that was it.
