   Thank you for the great tutorial, you made the process come to life. Of course it won't be as easy for me but I will refer to your video to get help along the way.Thank you.

   Never thought of making my own croquis. I will do that this summer when I'm off. And I like knowing it's here for reference. Love it.

   WOW! What talent! You make it look so simple but I don't think it will be easy to do. It makes sense though, to have your very own body proportions to style.

   I made my own croquis when I was in patternmaking classes. Unfortunately, my body has taken a different shape I should do it again. I don't draw up all those proportions, just the silhouettes from the front, back and side. It's a great way to try different fashion ideas on without sewing up samples!

   I highly recommend it!

   Thank you for this video. I've been collecting methods on how to do this for a while and I think I'll try this one first.

   What a great technique! I think with a little practice I'll be coming up with all kinds of designs that actually will look like the final garment. Thanks for your information on what product you used.

    I stumbled across this tutorial and watched not knowing what the outcome would be, I would love to learn to do this and might sit quietly with the video and try this for myself as i have changed shape and dont like most of what i make formyself these days, doing something like this would cut out the mistakes and help me like what i sew. Now to find a some quiet moments........... definitely a to do project on my list. Thankyou

    Loved how ways you made it look. Now to try it! Somehow I think that will take some practice. It would be a fabulous tool in my toolbox.

    I really do dislike it when my computer tries to "fix" the words I am typing and makes a mess of the text. I was trying to say that I loved the video and how you made it look so easy. I will definitely watch it again and again as I try to duplicate drawing a croquis.

    "Fashion illustrator and SewStylish author Yelen Ayé, has showed you the"... "has showed you"? Shouldn't it read "has shown you?"
