At first i thought pattern cutting would be the easiest part of the course but its not. You have to make sure that everything is precise and fits together, let alone making sure there is enough seam allowance.
We learnt how to use a pattern master which is basically a ruler which has straight and curved lines and has seam measurements on it, and also has degree angles on it. After testing i got the hang of how to use this tool for pattern making.
The easiest part i found of my bodice pattern was the darts as i have attempted these before.
I can see why you need to take your time on the patterns as you have to make sure everything is so accurate otherwise the garment won't work.
We also used our paper patterns to test to see if they make a bodice (keeping in mind that it will only be half), this was done by placing it on the manik, by doing this we were taught home to place the pattern correctly on there so that all pieces would fit perfectly.
Finished of the day by doing 2D drawings to show what the pattern is. Then got let out early as everyone looked pretty much dead tired lol.
