Drafting BLOCK Basic Skirt PATTERN.pptx

Pattern-something designed or used as a model for making things a dressmaker's pattern
Centerfold – center of the folded piece of fabric
Hemline – the lower edge of a dress or skirt
Block /Foundation pattern– made by drafting from the measurements which have been carefully taken from an individual or from a model.
Construction pattern – the intervening step between the block and the final pattern. Designs are complicated, construction patterns are sectioned.
Final pattern – provided with the necessary symbols that will guide the cutter on how to lay out the pattern on the cloth. Symbols for darts, seam allowances, grain line, center fold, and notches and other markers are used.
A. The Skirt Pattern (front and back)
In drafting the skirt (front and back) pattern, locating the four major
lines will simplify your drafting activities.
Procedure
1. On your pattern paper, draw a perpendicular line T. Mark the
midpoint as 1.
2. From 1, measure 1 cm down to get 2.
3. From 1, measure 1½ cm down to get 3
4. From 1, measure 18 cm to 25 cm
down to get 4.
5. From 2, apply the front skirt length
down tom get 5F
6. From 3, apply the back skirt length
down to get 5B.
7. Square 4 and 5B to the left.
8. Square 4 and 5F to the right.

Several parts of the body to be measured are taken in:
Horizontal measurement is taken from the left of the figure to the right.
Vertical measurement is taken from the top of the figure to its base.
3. Circumferential measurement is taken around the body. When measuring a circumference , put two fingers under the tape measure to serve as an allowance
