This is my first post & i will share my sewing patterns....I learned sewing when i was in high school & since then i just love sewing & improved a lot with trial & error.... i will try to share whatever i have learnt as simply as i can ,

I am going start with Bodice Pattern as its the most important 
basic pattern. 

Size
  • Small

Measurement : 
  • Bodice Length -- 13.5"
  • Bust -- 32"
  • Dart Point -- 10.5" 
  • Waist -- 26"
  • Shoulder -- 13.5"
  • Front Neck -- 6"
  • Back Neck -- 5"
Calculation 
  • Bust = (Bust + 2")/4  
  • Waist = (Waist + 2")/4



Steps :
  1. AB is ONFOLD & AB= 13.5 (length of Bodice)
  2. AC = 6.75"
  3. AD = 6.75" (Shoulder of Bodice)
  4. AD = CG
  5. CH=CG-1"
  6. CE = 8.5" (Bust of Bodice) (32+2=34, 34/4=8.5)
  7.  BF = 7" (Waist of Bodice) (26+2=28, 28/4 =7)
  8.  AI = 3.5"(Neck Width)(Depends upon Broadness of neck, ( 3"          to 4.5")
  9.  From D mark 0.5" & mark it as K. Join IK.
  10.  KG is for Back Shoulder & KH is for Front Shoulder. Join  them with Curved lines as shown in above figure.  
  11.  From AD go downwards 10.5" & mark it as L ( Apex, Dart  Point).
  12.  From B mark M as BM= 3.5".
  13.  MO = MN = 0.5".
