Introduction to Pattern Drafting

Image

Explore the prototyping process through pattern design and sample making. This course will discuss the differences between a block and a pattern, cover concepts such as dart manipulation, and work through measuring the body for pattern development.  Participants will draft a basic block with custom measurements, discuss fit through fitting a mockup of the block, and work through pattern manipulation to create a personal design.

 

*Note, to get the most out of this course you should have basic sewing skills and have worked with sewing patterns previously. Final work for the course may not be a completely finished garment.
