So, after four days of fighting with the sewing machine, broken threaders, and so much fraying, I finally finished this shan! It will be my first shan in this style - because when it finally started to be fashionable, I stopped buying much hanfu... Also I really hate when the bottom hem is uneven on me, so it will have to be tailored-made instead of buying from the rack.

This post only talks about drafting the patterns and the measurement. The steps of making... I think @yi-gege​‘s post here should be enough. I usually sew in the following sequence (not sure if it is the right way of doing it): the back seam, the sleeves, front and back, the collar, and at last the bottom and sleeve hems.

This post also includes some tips on the back seam, the arm pit, the bottom hem, bar-tack at the vents and what to do if you ran out of fabric. Also, while I did not put it in the slides, but do remember to iron before and after sewing every seam to get a sharp finish.

There will be another post specifically on how to collar a hanfu.

I hope this post is understandable LOL.
