I have to thank Kitty Phann for posting the link to "sewing with silk" because I found tons of other videos about sewing there.

Here is one on making a muslin mock up:

WOW that exactly how i do my darts...I always thought i did it a goofy way. I was taught that many years ago. Once you get the hang of it it is really a great way to do it..

Yep, my thoughts exactly, but that's how Alli does it, so I thought others may find it useful. Me, I'll stick with my wheel and transfer paper.:rofl :rofl

SV.. i totally agree i had never been taught about the apex, and it does make a lot of sense. I found that one really usefull.

I liked the fact that she cuts her pattern pieces, but she has them lined with a type of inter facing.

Clancy who cuts all of her patterns
