Pattern Cutting begins again!

So pleased to be back learning with MIN Atelier, aka my friend Tracey, brilliant tutor.

I couldn't remember how much we'd completed when the classes stopped due to lockdown. I thought we were just drawing out the pattern, but to my surprise, I'd already cut out the toile, sewed the two front panels to the back and sewn one sleeve. The two hours went by quickly and it now has two sleeves.

A sense of accomplishment.

Pattern cutting

As the title suggests, I have been learning pattern cutting, my tutor is the wonderful Tracey Stewart (aka MIN atelier)
More and more I've been getting fed up trying to find clothes that I like and that fit me. If something is in a nice fabric, the pattern is horrible or the garment has some silly frilly bit or cut too low or just plain doesn't fit.

This is a very precise science and I love it. Proper measuring and marking out. Really appeals to the engineering side of me.

Too involved to take photos but will try in the future.
