Beschreibung
How to Make Sewing Patterns solves the mysteries of pattern drafting with easy, step-by-step instructions and clear line drawings that show how to create custom-fit garments in a wide range of designs. The book¿s detailed instructions on measuring and fitting include do-it-yourself photographs as well as directions for creating custom dress forms.
¿Don McCunn has certainly mastered pattern drafting and fitting a wide range of bodies. Whether or not you have taken pattern drafting in a class, this book is a good reference in a very readable style. I especially liked the exacting instructions on taking measurements on the body and the solution for side seams which are not perpendicular to the floor.¿
--Sandra Betzina, the power behind power sewing.
Author of 10 books, a syndicated column for 37 years,
and a host of her own show on HGTV for 6 years.
¿Beyond the impressive range of material in How to Make Sewing Patterns is the author's obvious concern that readers understand what they are doing and why. There are many helpful tips throughout the book, some quite clever and unexpected.
¿The section on drafting a sloper contains excellent explanations of the various body contours, measuring, and fitting. Text, drawings, and photos of the human body from every angle illustrate the various interrelated contours and just how a pattern accommodates them. He even gives detailed instructions on how to measure and fit yourself.¿
--Threads Magazine
¿McCunn's book dispels the mysteries of pattern drafting, an area which was once the province of the couturier. A do-it-yourself text in which lessons build upon one another, this book provides detailed guides to creating patterns.¿
--Library Journal
¿The most readable pattern drafting book I've found. The drawings are the simplest line drawings possible but executed with concise purpose.¿
--Whole Earth Catalog
¿Donald McCunn leads the beginning seamstress or the advanced into pattern drafting via a thorough introduction. He shows that drafting is easy if each step is clearly related to the final outcome and if the drafter visualizes what he or she is doing.¿

Über den Autor
Don McCunn first became interested in patterns when he studied costume design and the history of costume at the University of Texas in Austin. As a result of this initial interest he wrote the book "How to Make Sewing Patterns." This book was first published in 1973 and has been continuously in print since then. He has taught bespoke pattern design in academia, private classes, and online for over 50 [...] popularity of "How to Make Sewing Patterns" and questions he has had from women in his classes about how to create patterns specifically for bras led him to do extensive R&D for over a dozen years then write "How to Make Custom-Fit Bras & Lingerie" which came out in 2017. Both "How to Make Sewing Patterns" and "How to Make Custom-Fit Bras & Lingerie" focus on custom-fit bespoke patterns for specific individuals. His research for his books and online classes resulted in him personally fitting over four dozen models. His interest in how these body shapes vary resulted in his saying "Body shapes are like DNA. They may look the same, but there will always be differences." Realizing from his R&D with different models that he had a rich collection of patterns that show these differences, he wrote "Fashion & Costume Design in Quarter Scale." This book illustrates the vital differences between custom-fit bespoke patterns and ready-to-wear by comparing the shapes of the models he has worked with to a commercial dress form used in the fashion industry. While much of Don's work has focused on fashion, he has never lost his passion for creating theater costumes for various productions. He is particularly intrigued by designs that are a challenge and appear to be next to impossible to create.
