    In depth pattern drafting video

    We currently have 63 members on this forum. I want to put out a vote on a new video. There’s is a lot more to the coat draft than what’s given out in the current video. Through my online one to ones I drip feed the information giving examples of a 6 inch drop, 4 inch drop and 2 inch drop, so my students can fully understand what I do and why. Drop is the chest to waist difference ie a 40-34 , 42-38, 48-46 I could put out a video which would show how to add these alternative to the main draft which would lead to the majority of you starting with a draft which is closer to your measurements. The issue is I don’t have any notes to back it up. Would you like me to do the video regardless? It would probably mean watching it several time’s before fully understanding what changes need to be made. If I get 20 confirmation I will put that video to the top of the list. Vote now!

    Somewhat related, is your pattern drafting book available for sale, or is it for course work only. I would buy a copy, but searching high and low I did not find it.

    I am hoping to have time next year to finish it completely. Maybe once the trouser series is done I will take a few months to work on it.

    It would be very interesting, but I don't think I would have an immediate need for such a video, so I would vote no for putting it at the top of your list of videos to make.


    EDITED TO ADD:


    I would be interested in learning why it's helpful to classify the male body in terms of these "drops." Are these common ratios in men's body types?

    Yeah. It’s the difference between the chest and waist.

    I would welcome a video covering this issue. You are doing a great job Rory. I have ben learning a lot. it is not what you know you don't know, it's what you don't know that you don't know that is the main problem! It is like a light being turned on in a rom that has previously only ever been dark.

    I vote yes! I'm very interested in any details on pattern making for different body types, sizes, corpulent, body builder, how the pattern changes to accommodate a bust for women's coats also.


    Thank you so much for the wonderful series Rory!
