The basic darted bodice blocks -- From block to pattern -- Basic adaptations of the bodice blocks -- Sleeve adaptations -- Constructing collars -- The basic fitted skirt block and adaptations -- Fitted trouser blocks and adaptations -- Complex adaptations of the bodice blocks : dresses - jackets - coats -- Easy fitting garments (woven fabrics) -- Easy fitting garments (jersey and knitted fabrics) -- Close fitting garments (stretch and jersey fabrics) -- Basic grading techniques -- Drafting blocks and fitting for individual figures -- Computer-generated design and pattern making. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14.
"Metric Pattern Cutting was first published in 1975 to provide a straightforward introduction to flat pattern cutting. The fourth edition continues to offer an introduction to the basic principles of pattern cutting, with a range of good basic blocks and examples of their application to garments. The original blocks and many of the pattern adaptations have therefore been retained. However, the great expansion of casual wear, cut in jersey or stretch fabrics, has led to the growth of 'flat cutting' with no darting to create the shape and this edition devotes a whole section to this type of cutting. The sections on computer-aided design and grading have been updated. The size charts of body measurements have been revised, reflecting the changing shape of women's bodies."--BOOK JACKET.
