<Lois> not much different than last year
<PeggySagers > Poor Becky, how cold is it?
<PeggySagers > thanks Lois, I am sorry to hear that however

<PeggySagers > Let's start with fit, we are a little early

Farenheit and yes we have snow

<Lois> Peggy - I saw Karen at the show
<jean> you can keep the snow
<PeggySagers > oh good, she has helped a lot
<PeggySagers > Karen, I mean
<Lois> yes - we had a good chat
<PeggySagers > For those ladies not knowing what is going on
<PeggySagers > the show in S ca has been poorly managed
<PeggySagers > and it was such a great show
<PeggySagers > and we are all sad
<PeggySagers > Great friendships came out of that show
<PeggySagers > So this is a result of that and many more good things to come
<PeggySagers > I can say that I found out my mother is in the hospital tonight
<PeggySagers > after having a seizure today
<Lois> oh - so sorry to hear that!
<jean> is she far away from you

<PeggySagers > so hopefully later
<Robin> How is she doing, Peggy?
<PeggySagers > she is in Miami, FL
<PeggySagers > she is resting tonight
<jean> prayers are going out
<PeggySagers > thanks
<PeggySagers > she will greatly appreciate that, she is the nicest lady you will ever
meet
<Judy> Hope everything works out.
<PeggySagers > She will be fine, she said she was too excited about coming to see
us
<jean> must be if you are any reflection of her
<PeggySagers > What are you all sewing
<PeggySagers > thanks
<PeggySagers > I am making new patterns
<PeggySagers > and having so much fun
<jean> working through pants fitting video
<PeggySagers > good, any questions
<Mary Mulcrone> I have an interfacing question
<PeggySagers > everybody needs pants
<PeggySagers > go ahead mary
<Lois> I have a question about jackets
<PeggySagers > Mary, go ahead
<PeggySagers > then lois
<Mary Mulcrone> You suggest no interfacing for #350 - does it
depend on the blouse fabric
<Julie Culshaw> I would like to know the difference between regular
sizing and W sizing.
<PeggySagers > I don't think so
<PeggySagers > I think interfacing is a bad old habit
<PeggySagers > Why do you want to use it?
<Mary Mulcrone> Thought you would use it for the collar and facing
<PeggySagers > 350 has a placket front with three layers of fabric
<jean> let me in for question after lois
<PeggySagers > to support the buttons and buttonholes
<Mary Mulcrone> Didn't realize that when I read the pattern
<Lois> I struggle with fitting the hips after fitting the shoulders; I'm
smaller on top - how to transition from a size 12 on top and a wider
hip carriage
<Lois> I'm wide from side to side with a hi hip
<PeggySagers > so why do I need more layers than three
<Robin> After Lois, would you give me insight about how to modify the pleated tank top pattern to use the black and white fabric you were selling? Obviously, it will not
fit the same as the pattern made in a knit.
<PeggySagers > Mary, does that help you?
<Mary Mulcrone> Yes thank you
<PeggySagers > Any other comments on interfacing
<PeggySagers > Lois, let's go to jackets
<Anne Duffield> Hello from Canada. Thank you Peggy for this effort
<PeggySagers > no problem
<jean> should i make a cardboard pattern with the measurment changes?
<PeggySagers > Lois, the bottom of the jacket
<PeggySagers > wait jean
<PeggySagers > is larger than the top
<PeggySagers > so when picking out a size
<PeggySagers > go for the upper body
<PeggySagers > then figure out how much bigger the bottom should be
<PeggySagers > than what the pattern already is
<PeggySagers > and divide that difference into how many
<PeggySagers > seams you have.
<PeggySagers > then add to each seam
<Julie Culshaw> I like the look of the Betsy's jacket but it looks very big in the shoulders. is it?
<PeggySagers > you should look for jacket styles that have lots of vertical lines
<Lois> any recommendation on which jacket would work best in your collection? Also skirt for wide hips?
<PeggySagers > Lois, does that make it sound easy
<Lois> yes it does - thanks
<PeggySagers > All of the jacket patterns have lots of vertical seams because I choose styles that are great, but that will fit easily
<PeggySagers > to any figure type
<PeggySagers > When I am designing
<PeggySagers > I am designing for the large lady, not the skinny one
<designer> Are your jacket sleeves interchangeable between your different jacket patterns?
<Anne Duffield> Peggy you mentioned that you were making new patterns. Any hints on what garment?
<PeggySagers > the skinny one looks good in a lot of things
<Lois> thank you for THAT!
<PeggySagers > yes, the sleeves are interchangeable
<PeggySagers > for the most part. before doing
<PeggySagers > I would just ask and check with me, but I can across the board, say yes
<PeggySagers > the new patterns
<PeggySagers > are what you all are asking for
<PeggySagers > a new top by armani that I just love
<PeggySagers > a knit top by dana buchman
<PeggySagers > a skirt by channel
<PeggySagers > just some really good looking stuff
<PeggySagers > eight new ones
<PeggySagers > lots of work
<PeggySagers > julie
<Julie Culshaw> yes
<PeggySagers > the betsy's jacket is a
<PeggySagers > raglan sleeve
<PeggySagers > which means there is a seam at the top and bottom
<PeggySagers > of the sleeve
<PeggySagers > That makes is very easy to adjust if it looks too wide or you want more circumference
<PeggySagers > So if it looks wide, I think you will find it not the case, but if you want to change it, you can
<Julie Culshaw> reduce that curve on the top of the sleeve?
<PeggySagers > that is right
<PeggySagers > i love jackets
<PeggySagers > i think they belong in everybody's wardrobe
<Julie Culshaw> Peggy, could the No Gap Wrap become a jacket given different fabrics?
<PeggySagers > this season, we are seeing them with jeans
<PeggySagers > and they look great
<PeggySagers > yes, the no gap wrap
<PeggySagers > was one of the winners in the blouse contest
<PeggySagers > and she did it in a very heavy black fabric
<PeggySagers > where it almost looks like a jacket
<Robin> I saw an Armani "jeans blazer" in October's Vogue - $485
<PeggySagers > they only differenc between the blouse and the jackets are generally the sleeve
<PeggySagers > easy, armani is big bucks, but I think his designs are great.
<PeggySagers > he is among my favorite
<PeggySagers > s
<PeggySagers > jackets have two piece sleeves that bend at the elbow
<PeggySagers > and so they hang straight
<Julie Culshaw> What's your favourite fabric for a blouse, and for a jacket?
<PeggySagers > blouses have one piece sleeves so they twist a little
<PeggySagers > Oh, i don't have a favorite fabric, so many great ones
<Mary Mulcrone> I have never been comfortable in jackets, even when they have been
<PeggySagers > I love fabric and good quality
<Robin> Any comments on using wovens (like the black and white fabric) for the pleated top, which seems to be designed for a knit?
<Mary Mulcrone> tailored to fit me. Is is improperly cut along the back?
<PeggySagers > Wow, mary, go make a simple jacket, they are so flattering. I would suggest 1750, robin's jacket
<PeggySagers > is that the robin that is here?
<PeggySagers > the black and white
<PeggySagers > pleated fabric
<Mary Mulcrone> I bought the pattern at the Chicago show - how do I determine the back
<Robin> Of course! I wouldn't miss it!
<Mary Mulcrone> will be wide enough
<PeggySagers > is a woven, but
<PeggySagers > acts like a knit because it is pleated
<PeggySagers > you can use any pleated like a knit
<PeggySagers > Hey robin
<PeggySagers > everyone, this is where we got Robin's jacket
<PeggySagers > from this robin
<Robin> And it was my pleasure to give it.
<PeggySagers > it is a great jacket, but as you see, all I
<PeggySagers > did was copy it and robin found the original
<SuzyQ> I am working on Robin's jacket. Have a muslin and am in the process of making it shorter..
<PeggySagers > Hey robin, how are the teeth
<Julie Culshaw> what fabric is that one made in - Robin's jacket - is it felted wool?
<Robin> Great, thanks. And yours?
<PeggySagers > Mary, what are you worried about on the back
<Julie Culshaw> and what else can you make it in?
<Mary Mulcrone> My arm movement always seems constricted
<PeggySagers > the cover of robin's jacket is a wool crepe
<PeggySagers > what is the upper circumference of your upper arm?
<Julie Culshaw> Doesn't that stick to what's underneath it?
<PeggySagers > and how much difference do you have in your jacket sleeve?
<Mary Mulcrone> 12 inches
<PeggySagers > you have skinny arms
<PeggySagers > your sleeve in a jacket should be between 14.5 and 15
<Mary Mulcrone> I am not certain because I never measured it - is this what makes the
<PeggySagers > and you should not have a problem
<Mary Mulcrone> movement feel constricted?
<PeggySagers > the movement could also be consticted by the back
<PeggySagers > if the back is too small
<PeggySagers > I wrote an article in Threads
<Mary Mulcrone> Which issue?
<PeggySagers > called "on fitting sleeves"
<PeggySagers > in June/July 2004
<PeggySagers > 2003
<PeggySagers > sorry
<Mary Mulcrone> I have it - I will review it
<PeggySagers > it is on this very thing
<Mary Mulcrone> Thank you
<PeggySagers > it will really help and is very easy to follow
<PeggySagers > not a prob
<Judy> Peggy, is that a good rule of thumb for sleeves? about 2.5 oto 3 inches + bicep?
<PeggySagers > yes
<PeggySagers > movement
<PeggySagers > depends on personality
<PeggySagers > some ladies are ok not moving and could use less
<Judy> May I ask a question about back width?
<PeggySagers > some ladies want to do the gardening
<PeggySagers > and want more
<PeggySagers > but you should measure some of your favorite jackets
<PeggySagers > the back width and then the upper sleeve width
<PeggySagers > and then make a comparison against the pattern you are making
<Mary Mulcrone> I don't really have a favorite comfortable jacket - should I start with
<Mary Mulcrone> a muslin?
<PeggySagers > go shopping
<PeggySagers > you can't make a muslin for mobility
<PeggySagers > it will stick and not move like real fabric
<Anne Duffield> Amazing measurements go on in those fitting rooms!
<Mary Mulcrone> So my best bet is to try on a variety and see what feels best
<PeggySagers > you can make a muslin for circu, depth and length, but not for movemane
<Judy> Ok. I'm really struggling to get a pattern to fit across the back. How do I widen the back without affecting the shoulders?
<PeggySagers > yes, the stores are free and great for research
<PeggySagers > to widen the back, how much do you need to widen?
<PeggySagers > amazing measurements do go on in those fitting rooms
<Robin> When you have a moment, what do you think is a good width for the neckline binding on your tank top pattern that will make it look like ready to wear?
<PeggySagers > 1/4 to 3/8"
<Robin> Thank you.
<jean> pants question?
<PeggySagers > go for it
<PeggySagers > I love pants
<PeggySagers > we all love pants
<jean> trying to figure out if i need to make a cardboard
<jean> pattern from the adjustmenst
<PeggySagers > cardboard?
<PeggySagers > what is that
<jean> i am watching your video
<PeggySagers > why cardboard
<PeggySagers > drape a muslin
<jean> poster board
<PeggySagers > just like the video
<PeggySagers > I would not make a cardboard
<PeggySagers > too stiff, too hard to work with
<PeggySagers > muslin works great as a pattern
<jean> so do i take the tissue and transfer toi the muslin
<PeggySagers > um, no
<jean> ok i'm lost
<PeggySagers > just cut out the muslin from the tissue
<PeggySagers > I can tell you are lost
<PeggySagers > let me start
<PeggySagers > cut out the muslin from the tissue
<PeggySagers > drape the muslin
<PeggySagers > fix the muslin on you
<PeggySagers > take the muslin apart
<PeggySagers > use the muslin that has been fixed as your pattern
<PeggySagers > does that sound easy?
<PeggySagers > now, let's go through that
<jean> oooohhhh now i understand, thank you
<PeggySagers > the video should show you how to fix the muslin?
<PeggySagers > the light bulb moments
<jean> age
<PeggySagers > i will accept that
<PeggySagers > just kiddng
<Lois> how about the big M?
<jean> no prob
<jean> yeah
<PeggySagers > just as you go to fix the muslni
<PeggySagers > if there is something you don't understand, just email or call
<jean> will do thanks
<PeggySagers > then once the muslin is fixed
<PeggySagers > use that as your pattern
<jean> gotcha
<PeggySagers > cardboard would be too many steps
<PeggySagers > What is the big M
<jean> menopause
<Lois> regarding age - I meant menopause.... ; )
<Lois> I lost brain cells I think!
<PeggySagers > oh i got you
<PeggySagers > does that happen
<Lois> yup!
<PeggySagers > I have heard a lot of stories, now I will worry more
<jean> i can't remember
<Becky> all of us over 50 know it to be the truth
<jean> hahah
<Lois> LOL
<Robin> Peggy, if your length ( shoulder to bust, bust to waist) is ok, but the length of the blouse or top is shorter than you prefer, do you add extra inches to the hem line
or to the "lengthen or shorten here" line on the pattern? If I'm understanding the theory, I hope the answer is hem line.
<PeggySagers > I do like blamming everything on the mig m
<PeggySagers > the answer is the hemline
<Robin> Yay!
<PeggySagers > if the waist is in the right place
<PeggySagers > then the rest is just length
<PeggySagers > the only reason you would add it internal
<PeggySagers > above the hemline
<PeggySagers > is if you were trying
<PeggySagers > to preserve the hemline
<PeggySagers > styling
<PeggySagers > or shaping
<PeggySagers > but you did good
<PeggySagers > how are the clothes going
<Mary Mulcrone> About your cowl neck pattern, the neckline seems wide - can it be brought in
<PeggySagers > of course
<Mary Mulcrone> Do I use the French Curve
<PeggySagers > on a cowl nec
<PeggySagers > the back neckline
<PeggySagers > controls how wide the front is allowed to open up
<PeggySagers > so if you narrow the back neckline,
<PeggySagers > you would have to do the front so that the shoulder seams
<PeggySagers > match, but
<Robin> Great, thanks. But I really had trouble with the pleated fabric, which is gorgeous. My top came out so tight I had to cut it off me-- no kidding! (My husband loved
every minute of it)
<Lois> that's interesting - I didn't know that - can you expand on that about the cowl neckline?
<PeggySagers > the back is the key and yes use a french curve
<PeggySagers > I can see you now robin
<Becky> <becky>just made the Pam blouse out of a silk crepe and am loving the feel and fit - could lightweight wool make it a jacket styling
<PeggySagers > when you use pleated fabric as a woven, you have to wrap the fabric around you and see how you want the pleats to hang
<PeggySagers > then use the size of the number of inches that wrapped around you
<PeggySagers > that is why finished garment measurements are so good
<Polynanna> Peggy - In your jacket fitting class in Minneapolis, you said that you were coming out with a new french curve - did you ever get it out?
<PeggySagers > yes you can make a cowl wider the same way
<PeggySagers > keep in mind the back controls the width of the front'
<Robin> Terrific idea. Thanks.
<PeggySagers > Becky, the blouse can be made into a jacket, the differences
<PeggySagers > are usually the sleeves, the shoulder pads
<PeggySagers > and the size of the armhole
<PeggySagers > other than that, go for it
<PeggySagers > you could leave them all the same if you wanted
<PeggySagers > for alightweight jacket, I probably would
<Becky> becky - thank you intend to try it
<PeggySagers > the french curve I sell is the one by Prymdritz
<PeggySagers > I like it and someone wanted me to put my name on one and I decided that I did not want to
<PeggySagers > too many women do not understnad the french curve and I felt like if I made one
<PeggySagers > women would think they had to have the one I made
<PeggySagers > and that is just not tru
<PeggySagers > a french curve is a fc is a french curve
<PeggySagers > or should be
<Polynanna> Thanks - I will order one.
<PeggySagers > they are great. every sewer should know how to use it
<jean> until meeting you, i never knew why i need on
<PeggySagers > I can't emphasize that enough
<PeggySagers > jean, that is a scarry statement
<PeggySagers > but have heard it before
<designer> I hae 3 and a half yards of ultrasuede for a jacket. Which one of your patterns should I use?
<PeggySagers > issue 82
<PeggySagers > Threads,
<PeggySagers > how to use a french curve
<PeggySagers > or in all of the videos
<PeggySagers > and patterns where needed
<PeggySagers > ultrasuede
<PeggySagers > would work well in any of the jackets
<PeggySagers > keep in mind that ultrasuede
<PeggySagers > does not have alot of drap
<PeggySagers > it is so light, that is does not drape well
<PeggySagers > do you know what I mean?
<PeggySagers > But as far as fabric goes, any of the styles would work very well
<designer> yes. I like the fact it's machine washable
<PeggySagers > 3 1/2 yards is good for any of the styles
<Robin> Is "Achieving Great Fit Through Muslins" your most recent DVD? Any new ones on the horizon?
<PeggySagers > it is very practicle
<PeggySagers > yes, it is the most current and a new one will be filmed in January 2005.
<PeggySagers > it will pick up all the construction techniques that
<PeggySagers > the first construction video does not have in it
<PeggySagers > factory methods
<PeggySagers > like the fly front
<PeggySagers > everyone who sews should know that method
<PeggySagers > many more
<PeggySagers > edgestitching
<PeggySagers > etc
<Robin> Terrific!
<jean> how long after production will it be out
<PeggySagers > I am hoping for a release date by the end of February, but I don't know
<Mary Mulcrone> Is the way you put in an invisible zipper on any of your current DVDs
<PeggySagers > no, but that will be in the new video as well
<Mary Mulcrone> Great - look forward to it
<PeggySagers > and of course, I think this whole
<PeggySagers > company was started by me
<PeggySagers > listening to you all
<Polynanna> will we get an "advance notice" and chance to order like we did with "Achieving"? I liked that.
<PeggySagers > you know what you need
<PeggySagers > and you know more than me
<PeggySagers > so my job is to listen
<PeggySagers > I almost always offer a presale
<PeggySagers > that is just for my email list
<PeggySagers > but i think they should get a better price
<Polynanna> very helpful
<PeggySagers > than before it is released
<PeggySagers > do you all like that?
<Mary Mulcrone> Yes
<Lois> yes!
<jean> yes
<designer> yes
<Becky> Becky>thank you - yes
<Lois> you are such a great teacher!
<PeggySagers > thank yoiu
<PeggySagers > the only problem with the presale
<PeggySagers > is that we say when the video will be shipped
<PeggySagers > or the patterns and many do not read
<PeggySagers > the email well
<PeggySagers > and so we field a lot of phone
<PeggySagers > calls
<PeggySagers > asking where the order is way before
<PeggySagers > it should be shipped,
<PeggySagers > but that is not a big dal
<PeggySagers > deal
<PeggySagers > I think the ladies get excited
<PeggySagers > and that is good
<jean> i know we get excited about new pattern releases
<Mary Mulcrone> Are you releasing all eight of your new patterns in January
<PeggySagers > good, so do I
<PeggySagers > yes, all eight will be presold in January and then shipped mid February
<PeggySagers > we are very much on schedule
<PeggySagers > so I am just excited
<PeggySagers > new stuff
<PeggySagers > but I do have my favorites
<Mary Mulcrone> Will you have pictures on the web site before the presale?
<PeggySagers > and they are classics
<PeggySagers > we will see
<Polynanna> maybe you could try disclaimer notices about the shipping date in BIG, BOLD LETTERS. We need your company to keep putting out stuff rather than field
phone calls.
<Polynanna> lol
<Robin> Peggy, do you you have a particular type of elastic that you prefer?
<PeggySagers > our photo shoot is Dec 17 and scott has to have time to design the front covers. as soon as the front covers area done, then we can put them up
<Becky> Becky> Peggy living up here in the great white north we do not have access to a lot of classes and the videos keep me up to date
<Mary Mulcrone> Great
<PeggySagers > no, it's not a big deal
<Becky> on techniques so thanks for keep ing them current
<PeggySagers > good
<PeggySagers > that is the goal
<PeggySagers > I have shipped them all over the world
<PeggySagers > it is amazing
<designer> They say that if you make fit changes from one pattern company, make those same changes on all patterns from that company. Does this hold true in your
patterns also?
<PeggySagers > Japan, aust
<PeggySagers > etc
<PeggySagers > yes, it does
<PeggySagers > keep in mind]
<PeggySagers > that I am working off the same base
<PeggySagers > some of the patterns will fit differently
<PeggySagers > just because of styling
<PeggySagers > but the bodies are very similar
<PeggySagers > you can use sleeves from one pattern on another
<PeggySagers > etc
<PeggySagers > fit should be length, cir, and depth
<PeggySagers > those should and do remain constant
<PeggySagers > you may change cir
<PeggySagers > just because of the fabric
<PeggySagers > but it will not be a lot
<PeggySagers > Does that make sense?
<designer> yes
<PeggySagers > good
<PeggySagers > the whole goal is to make your sewing
<PeggySagers > less pattern time and
<PeggySagers > more fun finishing the garment
<PeggySagers > we have a long way to go
<PeggySagers > but the business is growing nicely
<PeggySagers > thanks to all of you
<PeggySagers > computers are a great thing
<Becky> we are all techno wizards
<PeggySagers > and we are working on doing more on the website
<PeggySagers > we will get better
<PeggySagers > we are looking into cameras
<PeggySagers > so I can see fit and solve it from afar
<PeggySagers > isn't that cool
<Robin> Wow!
<jean> cool
<Mary Mulcrone> Now that would be a great tool
<Polynanna> fabulous
<PeggySagers > yes and it is not far off
<Becky> <becky> like the long distance doctos
<PeggySagers > only better
<PeggySagers > techology has come down in price and available to many more
<PeggySagers > but I like to see you all in person
<PeggySagers > so I will still travel
<Polynanna> you'll have to add webcams to your catalog!
<Mary Mulcrone> Technology will never replace all human contact
<PeggySagers > i would agree
<Robin> I guess we could send you a photo attached to an email, and you could analyze the wrinkles and creases.
<PeggySagers > knowing you all is the best
<Becky> becky - diagnostic sewing - too cool
<PeggySagers > robin, you will be a wiz by then
<Polynanna> but in emergency - just think how great that would be.
<PeggySagers > you are learning so mcy
<PeggySagers > much
<Marsha> Are you able to comment on more specific expansion plans for potential investors?
<PeggySagers > sure, what do you want to know
<PeggySagers > this year
<PeggySagers > 8 patterns, new video
<PeggySagers > trade shows
<PeggySagers > a new embrodery disk
<PeggySagers > 2 trade shows
<PeggySagers > the money, most of it will go to the trade shows
<designer> whats the new embroidery disk?
<PeggySagers > they eat money and then make a bunch
<PeggySagers > but the money has to be there
<PeggySagers > i have taken lots of great designs
<PeggySagers > from escada, armani
<PeggySagers > and made them fit onto my patterns
<PeggySagers > and will probably give it away
<PeggySagers > with the presale of the new patterns
<designer> loe it
<jean> yeah
<designer> loe it
<PeggySagers > there is some really pretty things
<PeggySagers > we have been working on this for about 3 months
<PeggySagers > it is being digitized as we speak,
<PeggySagers > but should be ready soon
<PeggySagers > lots of room for growth
<PeggySagers > I am working on a plan
<designer> on jacket patterns?
<PeggySagers > for training ladies
<PeggySagers > to be fit instructors
<jean> awesome idea
<Polynanna> wow
<Judy> That would be great
<PeggySagers > and then we will teleconference the workshop where they are to me
<PeggySagers > and if they have problems
<PeggySagers > we can fix them over the camers
<Becky> becky- when?
<Jan> What skills would a person need to be trained at a fit instructor?
<PeggySagers > probably will launch this summer
<PeggySagers > you have to be able to listen
<PeggySagers > because I see fit as so easy, I think the training
<PeggySagers > will be simple
<PeggySagers > I am working on a manuel
<PeggySagers > so lots of good things going on and lots of room to grow
<PeggySagers > We are having fun
<PeggySagers > and are very busy
<PeggySagers > never enough time
<Becky> becky>training with you or distance certification in the plan?
<PeggySagers > no, the training will be here in dallas
<PeggySagers > no distance certification
<PeggySagers > quality is very important
<PeggySagers > I gotta make sure you all know what you are doing
<Becky> becky>i liked Dallas - haven't been there in nearly 15 yrs
<PeggySagers > well , there you go
<PeggySagers > we are having a four day workshop here in Feb
<jean> i am so glad you don't lower your standards just to make money.
<PeggySagers > is should be cold enough for some of you
<Marsha> Thank you for being so innovative. Love your leadership!
<PeggySagers > it is not about money
<Anne Duffield> Peggy needs to be sure that her trainers understand the proper use of the French curve. No mean task as many of us do not understand it as a sewing
tool.
<PeggySagers > it is about the home sewers being succesful
<PeggySagers > yes
<Becky> becky> use the frc alot in my millinery work
<Robin> Peggy, any
<Becky> becky see you on the 19th
<Polynanna> bye
