Such an inspiring tutorial! I cannot draw at all, but this video gives me hope :) Thanks!
I have been looking for this sort of help for years. I shall keep practising until I improve and am able to express my ideas in a much better format than I have previously
Oh i love the video thank you so much for showing it.
Very cool. My degree is computer science and now I make clothes for fun and teach sewing and digitizing. This was great.
Yelen makes it look so easy. Just needed to add a happy little purse here or there. I am going to try this while I watch the video. Yelen is great. Thanks
Thank you! that was so helpful and interesting.
Here in the UK we have only one sewing magazine that focuses purely on dress making.So i decided recently to subscribe to your brilliant magazine. I have been sewing all my adult life, making most of my kids clothes for a fraction of the cost of "ready mades". Now a grandmother my daughter said she didn't want anything making for her daughter, which saddens me greatly.
I spend alot of my time making existing clothes larger which usually works well.
Thanks again for a wonderfully informative magazine.

Excellent video! Now I just need to practice sketching and keeping it quick and light. I've always wanted to learn fashion sketching just had no idea where to begin.
