Pattern Design: Fundamentals is an ideal book for beginners to the field of fashion design as well as self-guided learners.

Pattern Design: Fundamentals covers the basics of pattern making, terminology and drafting concepts. This drafting book combines knowledge of drafting with sewing and construction.

The best way to understand how patterns are drafted is to understand how the drafts are constructed, why certain pattern markings are used and in what order a pattern should be constructed. Understanding the construction, solidifies one’s drafting knowledge, connecting the dots of two-dimensional drafting to the three-dimensional finished garment.
