About this title

Synopsis

Two expert instructors demonstrate how to adjust commercial patterns to make clothes that actually fit real bodies. They begin with accurate measuring and creating a personalized "master" pattern that is a customized map of a single body. Once completed, the master can be used to alter any commercial pattern for a perfect fit. 90 photos, 30 in color.
