Description

Delve into the fascinating world of pattern making by learning to create sewing patterns directly from existing garments. Start with a simple T-shirt to grasp the basics, then a woven shirt to learn essential elements like closures, darts, pockets, and other pattern making fundamentals. Next, test and perfect your pattern by making a muslin. Finally, copy a garment of your choice including pants and knitwear. Leave with a complete pattern for your garments as well as detailed instructions.
