Pattern Cutting

Finished Toile, Half scale size 12. Front

The back view of my Toile. I really enjoyed making this and renewing the skills I know.

Basic Jersey T-shirt, half scale size 12. I made this in my last lesson of the semester. I made it using a 4 threa over locker, a bider and a cover stitch. I had never used a binder before, I learnt how to thread it up.

My Illustration of my technical bodice, at the top of the blog.

Technical sheets for the bodice; on the left is the production sketch (a black and white drawing of the garment on a template/figure) and on the right is the working drawing(a black and white line drawing of the garment "flat").

Zip; I struggled a lot at college sewing zips into garments or sampleing, so for me to get this pretty much perfect, well, I was over the moon!

The French seam; used mainly for chiffon materials, because they are so hard to overlock with the movement of the fabric!

The Run and Fell Seam; used on jeans, I think this is my favourite seam, it looks neater and is a little detailed.

Open Seams; the basic everyday seam, thats on pretty much everything.
