DRAFTING THE PERFECT PANTS FOUNDATION
INTERMEDIATE TO ADVANCED
Creating a proper pants pattern can be daunting due to the many steps involved in drafting pants. However, once you complete it, you will realize that it wasn't as challenging as it seemed. This course involves creating a "Trouser"-style pants foundation via flat patternmaking using measurements from either a dress form or your own custom measurements.
By entering the measurements and following all the necessary steps, you can create a perfect pants pattern that serves as a foundation for many other pants styles.
