I Draw My Patterns – The Skirt
Construction and Transformation
In this new collection, Teresa Gilewska addresses beginners in fashion modeling and amateur seamstresses and tailors wishing to learn how to create their own patterns independently.
The first part of this volume 3 describes in a simple and detailed manner the fundamentals of taking measurements and constructing the basic skirt pattern.
The second part explores the different modes of transforming the basic pattern: cutting, flaring lines or cut segments, placing cutting lines, removing, pivoting or moving darts, creating volumes, applying pleats or gathers, etc., to achieve the finished pattern of the desired model. The main difficulty is not mastering these transformation techniques, but knowing which one(s) to use to construct the pattern of the model you have in mind.
To help you acquire this know-how, the author explains, through examples of skirt models in very varied styles, how to analyze each model in detail to deduce which transformation technique to use in each specific case.
