This blog is aimed, specifically, at teaching students of fashion design how to make close-fit stretch-wear patterns. While the public can certainly learn a lot from reading the blog, they may find they need the added guidance of an "in class" fashion teacher ... I'm not going to provide this level of instruction. Everything you need to design women's swim or dancewear patterns is already here. By combining the various elements of each lesson a design student should be able to create any number of designs. I will not be adding new patterns unless it becomes necessary for one of my classes. If you'd like to keep in touch with like minded creative people then feel free to add me as a friend on facebook ... I love to see what others are doing ... just type Pattern School as the message and I'll know to add you.
My experiment in alternative fashion can be seen at Itty Bitty Evil Kitty ... please drop by and add your opinions and help shape the experiment. |

Don’t get me wrong … I’m not a gun toting hunter! Fake fur just seemed … well … really fake … and I’ve bought my fair share of the . . . → Read More: What the?

Please bare with me while I update the appearance of the site, change a few links around, edit a few pages and basically set up the site so it will maintain itself a little better. Things may get a little messy and look very odd over the next short while but it’ll all come . . . → Read More: Time for a Face Lift First published August 30th, 2010 (Last updated: September 2nd, 2010)
Just a quick note to let you all know I’ve managed to incorporate the old Lazy People’s section into the new format without losing anything of consequence to do it. The best thing about this is that if you entered measurements on the old version of the site then they’ll still work with the . . . → Read More: Lazy People’s Section is Online!

I thought I’d post this YouTube video of Watersun Swimwear at IMG Swim Fashion Week 2009 because it demonstrates (at the start of the show) the use of colour blocking that we were discussing in our yahoo group.
I have to admit I’m disappointed in the lack of new creative . . . → Read More: Block Colour First published November 3rd, 2009 (Last updated: April 22nd, 2010)
