So much Work! I deconstruct pieces and resew from previous garments like this:

Another option, using the same process, is to use HEAVY GAUGE CLEAR PLASTIC SHEETING, which can be found in hardware stores. Having the versatility of being able to place it over or under, and either work around or align things by seeing through it, tracing details, etc, can sometimes make things easier. Also, if you're using Sharpie Markers to draw the lines, they can be erased with rubbing alcohol in case you make an error or want to change the cut of particular seam.

"You are the boss and you can make your clothes as you like" I am enchanted by that sentence!

Addressing a frequently requested topic today! Get into my brain and see how I copy my clothes for sewing projects :)

Thanks so much for this!! I have an uncommon body shape and size. All my life I’ve had trouble finding clothes that fit me well. When I find something that does, I try to buy extras and every color available, but sometimes clothes are discontinued. I have made several pairs of scrubs now that I just love!! Everyone asks me where i got them because I use fabrics that are not found in any uniform shops clothes!!

I am a handknitter who loves to knit sweaters and tops. Your armhole info just immensely helped me with ideas to customize patterns for better fit. Thank you so much.

Dear Wendy,
