Comparing 3 pattern drafting techniques - Basic top pattern block (tight fit)

I NEED A BASIC TOP PATTERN, but like most of you, I was overwhelmed by all the options out there. We all know this step is SO necessary if you want to design a top piece (and you're not good at draping like me, of course), so let's get over with it...

In this video I'll take you from the beggining till the end. We'll start by taking measurements, then I'll show you how to draw 3 different pattern options, I'll compare them and finally I'll tell you which one is my favorite. (There's a SUPER grand finale that took me like 5 hours to film and it's a little wink to "How I met your mother" for the fans out there). I had a lot of fun filming and editing this video hehe.

For the designs, I used three different books that I had at home and I changed some measurements that didn't make sense to me or that were too standard (I'm an Engineer so I like numbers, sorry). If you like the patterns or you want to try this yourself, I'll leave the names down below.
