Final Major Pattern Cutting

Final Major Project...PATTERN CUTTING..

I started pattern cutting for my final capsual collection. I started with the basic shorts block. I altered the block I removed the front and back pockets and took the zip out of the front. I changed the length of the legs and split the darts into panels. I cut out my pattern in calico and made my first toile. I did a fitting with my toile. It seemed very large so I took 2 cm out of each seem and panel except the front centre seem and crotch. I adjusted the front and back leg length and made the darts larger so the hotpants will become much more fitted around the waist and legs. I then adjusted my pattern from the toile taking measurements from the toile. I then made a second toile and did a fitting. The second toile fit nicely. I am ready to cut out in fabric and make the hotpants.
