Sewing and Garment Construction
The programme leads from basic skills to independent pattern making. You will study taking measurements and drafting a block, modelling and fitting to the figure, and working with different fabrics and equipment. Dedicated blocks cover sewing technology for units and detail finishing, fitting and adjustment, finishing and hardware, and the economics of a small sewing business: cost calculation, fabric purchasing, size charts and presenting garments. By the end you sew a garment from your own pattern and assemble a mini collection with cost calculations.
