In A-level I had to produce a pattern for a corset but this was following detailed instructions and a lot of help from my teacher; it was nothing like any of the pattern cutting done in FDA Fashion.
On our first pattern cutting lesson I was really exited to be learning something new, but also worried that I wouldn’t grasp the method and wouldn’t enjoy it. But once shown how to correctly use the pattern master and explained the basic methods I started to feel really confident producing my own patterns and always looked forward to the lessons.
Now at the end of the term, Pattern Cutting is my favourite unit, its fun, challenging and is maths mixed with practical/design. (I always enjoyed maths at school as well as art and design subjects.) I’ve also found once started its very hard to stop.
With in the term we have produced over 20 patterns and produced a bodice, shirt, pair of shorts and an a-line skirt from our patterns. I’ve also found once started it’s very hard to stop.
When I first started the course I wanted to become a Buyer, but I’m now considering becoming a Pattern Cutter.
