Pattern making, the art of controlling and shaping a piece of fabric to comply with the curves of the human figure. It is a major bridge between design and production. In this course, students will be allowed to practically apply their knowledge of pattern drafting under the supervision of an expert. The students are directed to produce draft patterns for different designs and body shapes. By the end of this course, students should be able to produce draft patterns for both male and female styles. They should also be able to mass produce garments using draft patterns.
