Editorial Reviews

Product Description

This text offers a complete picture of the process of individual garment construction following
the exact techniques used in the industry. The unique feature of this book is in the
presentation of each garment as a whole concept. With numerous diagrams and easy-tofollow
instructions, students master the principles of design and flat pattern to create an
individual item of apparel such as a skirt, dress, or jacket. Each chapter begins with the
introduction of a basic sloper and follows with an explanation of the whole production
process making a garment from pattern drafting to garment construction, including
lining, interfacing, and markers. The balance of each chapter covers techniques for altering
separate pattern pieces.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected, March 27, 2003
By Jill (Vermont USA) - See all my reviews
I went back and forth on this one. Bought it to learn how to make a Flat Pattern. Half of this book is on construction of each basic pattern (blouse, skirt, pants etc) with minimal variations. Lots of large drawings, very little text. Not for the person who already knows construction techniques. If I were a beginner in sewing I would need more information on construction than this gives. But good instruction on Flat Pattern making if you want to not use half of the book....

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book!, August 18, 2005
By seachelle (kentucky) - See all my reviews
This is the book i learned patternmaking from... its a wonderful guide and teaches you how to really learn the basics of flat patternmaking but gives you the information to take your pattern skills much further! I have looked at other books for flat pattern making and this one is the best, and has detailed illustrations that are helpful as well.
