Pattern making, pattern cutting or flat patterning are all terms that describe the process of creating a two-dimensional diagram or template of a garment, drafted on a flat surface from either body measurements or transferred from a draped muslin. The starting point of a pattern is a sloper. Slopers are basic patterns that are drafted containing a certain amount of wearing ease for the wearer's comfort and are created without seam allowances. In this book you will start by learning how to create a sloper for a basic sleeve before moving on to collars, bodices, skirts and trousers.
