Bespoke Pattern Construction: The Women’s Jacket | Full Figure (3 Day Event)
Mon 16 Dec 2024 10:00 AM - 12:30 PM GMT
Online, Zoom
Description
A three-part live online class teaching the construction of a bespoke cutting pattern for the classic women's jacket, for a fuller figure. No previous experience required. Literature provided.
The drafting method is suitable for figures with a waist measurement that is 90% or more of the bust measurement. Please get in touch if in doubt.
This class is dedicated to the drafting of the bespoke pattern from scratch. Based on actual body measurements, rather than using pre-fabricated blocks, the course teaches the art of cutting for the individual - yourself or a customer.
This is a three-day course, taking place from Mon 16 to Wed 18 December 2024, 10am to 12:30pm
*** Book for the first day only - day 2 & 3 are included ***
Participants will be able to create their own patterns using the literature we provide with the class. Measurements are in the metric system.
To enhance the online experience, we draft in small scale, on A3 paper. A measuring tape and set of instructions are provided prior to the course.
Included in the fee:
- Your complete cutting pattern in 1:3 scale (body, sleeve, collar)
- The skill to repeat the draft in full scale, for anyone, anytime
- Written instructions for future reference
