PROFESSIONAL PATTERN CUTTING
INTENSIVES
Pattern Cutting and Making for Shirts and Trousers (4 Day Intensive)
WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?
This course forms part of our Professional Pattern Cutting Programme. It is aimed at those wishing to learn pattern cutting techniques to gain skills to cut and make clothes to their own shape and size or to gain employment within the fashion industry or to use when making samples or to oversee the production of garments for their own fashion business. It would be ideal for someone particularly wanting to concentrate on Shirts and Trouser production either for themselves or for a business.
WHAT WILL I LEARN?
On the first 2 days of the course using your own body measurements or a standard measurement you will draft a Shirt block. You will then learn pattern manipulations for drafting all the elements of a shirt including a yoke, pleats, a button wrap, a 1 piece and a 2- piece collar, a cuff and a placket opening. Then on the following 2 days you will draft a Trouser block. You will then cut and sew the block in calico and learn to make fit adjustments. Using the full scale and quarter scale block you will learn pattern manipulations to create a number of trouser styles including: hipsters, flared, wide leg, tapered, peg top. You will draft a yoke, hip pocket, waistband, belt loops, and a fly zip fastener and create turn-ups.
New dates coming soon. If you need any assistance, please get in touch.
