Actually, I have a different approach. I get out the best fitting article (shirt, skirt, pants, etc.) I have. then I sit down and measure that to make a pattern.
For the body measurements: Arm=from under arm or shoulder seam to bones that stick out on either side of the wrist at the end of the forearm Leg inseam=from middle of crotch or garment crotch to length desired, since different types of pants have different lengths Crotch length=In the midline, front and back to the crotch Waist=at the natural waist Hips=at the widest part of the hips Chest=with bra on, at the widest part of the chest. Front length=length from neck line to waist. Back length=length from neck line to waist.
