English:
In this pattern drafting course we will make a complete pattern from scratch. This can be a base pattern, otherwise known as a sloper, from which you can develop patterns that fit you well or it can be a model made from a standard size base pattern (sloper). We will focus on patterning techniques and then test the pattern by making a mock-up (toile) in muslin. In the end you will have a sloper in your size or a complete pattern in a standard size. Both techniques employ drafting and can be used simultaneously but first need to be learned separately. English speakers are welcome!
