About the Book

If you've watched Project Runway or Making the Cut and wondered how the competitors instinctively know how to create such a diverse array of garments - it's because they learned the art of pattern making. Ultimate Guide to Designing Patterns for Clothing is an illustrative master class in the art of garment pattern making for aspiring fashion designers, fashion design students, and sewing and fabric enthusiasts. Lifelong designer and patternmaker Suzy Furrer has distilled her 35+ years of fashion pattern experience into this definitive resource for expert pattern making instruction. The book includes 11 chapters, each meticulously explaining a fundamental element of the pattern making process. Each element is fully explored with diagrams and illustrations making it ideal for visual learners. Furrer begins with an introduction to pattern making - explaining what is required for building a proper patternmaking tool kit and terminology used throughout the book before guiding the budding pattern maker through the 11 instructional chapters.
