The Horrors of Pattern Cutting!!!







One of my modules includes pattern cutting and constructing garments. So far this semester, I have made patterns for and constructed a hood (shown above), an evening bodice (shown above), a puff sleeve, a rever collar and a raglan sleeve. Some of the pattern development is shown above. I find this work very challenging and impossible to complete a whole pattern and garment in only 3 hours!!! It is the most stressful and time consuming module...but once the garment is complete, it is very rewarding knowing that you have designed and created it.
