== Using the Rotate Tool to transform the basic sleeve pattern into Create Bell Sleeves == <!--T:1-->
<!--T:2-->
Firstly, I am using the images as shown in the book '''How to Make Sewing Patterns''' by '''Don McCunn''' which may be purchased from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/How-Make-Sewing-Patterns-second/dp/0932538215.
<!--T:3-->
My basic sleeve pattern that I will change to a bell sleeve:<br>
[[File:Bell002.png]]<br>
The sleeve is divided into 6 sections using 5 divide lines. The underarm parts are kept intact and the rest are rotated. I chose 10⁰ for this exercise but you could use angles of lines or any degrees that you want to.
<!--T:4-->
Because the underarm sections remain intact, I used the '''Point from X and Y of 2 Other Points''' to square down from C46 and C49:<br>
[[File:Bell006.png]]<br>
Add dotted lines from C46 to C16, C49 to C18 and Shoulder to Elbow, using the '''Line Between Points''' tool:<br>
[[File:Bell008.png]]<br>
Using the '''Midpoint between 2 points''' tool, place a point between C16-Elbow and Elbow-C18.<br>
<!--T:5-->
Using the '''Point Intersect Curve and Axis''' tool, select the curve at some point between C33 and C27 and then the point created above (C32). Change the line to a dotted line and the degrees to 90⁰.
<!--T:6-->
Repeat between Elbow and C18:<br>
[[File:Bell010.png]]<br>
Redraw curve C46-C33-C36 (I used the '''Curved Path tool'''), C36-ShoulderTip ('''Simple Curve tool'''), ShoulderTip- C39, C29-C46, C39-C34-C49 and C49-C30:<br>
[[File:Bell012.png]]<br>
<!--T:7-->
I now have the sleeve set up to start rotating the pieces.
<!--T:8-->
As the picture in the above-mentioned book shows, they work from the outside towards the centre, so I am going to do this as well but I'll start on the left side and then do the right side - you may do it the other way, if you wish.
<!--T:9-->
Select '''Rotate Objects''' tool under the '''Operations''' tab, holding down the CTRL key (I use Windows), click on the curve between C29 and C46, C29, C9, C11 and C16.<br>
[[File:Bell014.png]]<br>
<!--T:10-->
(All your selected items will have a dotted square around them as above.)
<!--T:11-->
Release the CTRL key and press Enter.<br>
[[File:Bell016.png]]<br>
<!--T:12-->
(Now all your selected items will have green markings.)
<!--T:13-->
Select the Point of Origin. In this case it is C46 which I would like to stay in the same place while C16 must rotate out to the left, taking all my selected points with it.
<!--T:14-->
Enter the degrees of the rotation in and click on OK.<br>
[[File:Bell018.png]]<br>
<!--T:15-->
I have entered -10 because I am rotating the selection to the left.
<!--T:16-->
Draw in the lines in any colour that you choose.<br>
[[File:Bell020.png]]<br>
As you can see, the new points have c1 added to the original labels.
<!--T:17-->
The next section you will choose the curve between C46-C36, C29c1-C46, C46, C29c1, C9c1, C11c1, C16c1, C16 and C32.
This section lists the various types of tutorials available on this wiki and on the web.
<!--T:18-->
Press Enter. Select C36 as the axis and enter -10⁰.
==How to make Block Patterns==
<!--T:19-->
No matter how experienced a patternmaker is, there's always something new to learn.<br/>
Draw in lines.
These patternmaking tutorials explain how to make block patterns in Seamly2D. <br/>
<br>[[File:Bell022.png]]<br>
They are a good starting point for beginning patternmakers.<br/>
The middle line will only be rotated by 5⁰ since the other 5⁰ will be done when doing the right side.
Also worthwhile for review by master patternmakers, as some neat tips and tricks are included. <br/>

<!--T:20-->
Pattern and measurement files created incidental to the writing of tutorial materials may be found here on the [[Seamly2D wiki pattern list | Seamly2D wiki pattern list ]]
The next section you will choose the curve between C35-ShoulderTip, C46c2-C36, C29c1c2-C46c2, C36, C46c2, C29c1c2, C9c1c2, C11c1c2, C16c1c2, C16c2, C32c2, C32 and elbow.
==Video Tutorials from Seamly2D==
<!--T:21-->
Our YouTube channel features short videos to show how to use the tools in Seamly2D.
Press Enter. Select Elbow as the axis and enter -5⁰.
There are also some playlists which show how to make simple patterns, create Details, join pattern pieces, export Layouts, etc.

Now you may repeat these instructions for the other side. Just don't use the - (minus) in the degrees.
