There's a little history to this project. Every year since about 2007 I've made a new winter-ish coat. Every year since then Amanda Foran has managed to dump an entire glass of beer on said coat. (It's okay, it was an accident, and I never minded smelling like decent beer.) Next semester I'll be teaching a class on pattern making, using a cool software program that integrates both fashion and CAD work. (Finally, those first two years of college are paying off!)
The program uses basic formed pieces and alters them for the modifications you chose. It's pretty neat. My second attempt was this coat, it's very fitted, fully lined and pretty girly. If I was going to do it over, I'd make it longer.
The class is also going to make patterns and other garments from scratch, meaning strictly numbers. Can't wait to see the things they come up with!
