Short course
Lister Building
Overview
Join us at the Bradford School of Art for a weekend of pattern cutting and drafting up a basic toile bodice with sleeves in calico to your personal measurements.
The purpose of the toile/mock-up is to create a standard top/bodice and sleeve block that will work as a template for your further creations. You will be able to take these away to make adaptations for your own unique designs. Alternatively, you could use them as a blueprint to assist you in making changes to bought patterns that just don’t fit as well as you would like.
