Re: Front and Back Bodice Block Patterns

Dear littlenini,

 
I believe from you question, that you are asking about when we fold the back shoulder line and place it on the front shoulder line to bring the shoulder line in the middle of the back and front armholes and then we make the shoulder length of the back and front patterns the same.
 
When we measure the body to draft the bodice block pattern, we take some measurements for the back and some for the front pattern. Since the front and back of the body differ so will the patterns when we draft them.
 
 
Happy sewing,
