I enjoyed the hell out of these posts. Made me feel good about what I was doing. Patternmaking is great and frustrating and challenging and rewarding as heck.
I started back in the day with a shitty free sewing machine, sewing by hand, and some shitty Fiskars. I have now invested in nicer equipment. Began by altering my own clothes, chopping them up and making new crappy pieces. Then I found some shirts and trousers that I liked at garage sales/thrift stores/flea markets and reverse engineered with cheap fabric from the same g.sales/thrift/flea markets. Rebuilt a cashmere topcoat, peacoat, tweed blazer and did my best to make patterns out of butcher paper and roll-ends from the newspaper factory in town. At the start, nothing ever fit me that looked good; everything that fit looked like crap. (probably a self esteem issue) I buy lots of patterns from thrift stores for mega cheap also.
I built my own dress form out of a thick hanger and a tshirt to destroy, wrapping myself with wet packing tape. Pass out from overheating and have your mom freak out, cut you out of it. Then patch it up with more tape until you have a mass that somewhat resembles an upper torso of yours.
Fixed that to a coat rack and started working on building from my patterns, tweaking it after being able to see it hung up. It's difficult to work only on the table, pinning parts to my shirt to try and get a feel for it in the mirror. Found some dress forms at an auction for cheap, so I snagged the fuckers up and oh lordy what a change from the welfare handmade version.
A great resource for me was youtube, cutter and tailor forum and the book by Dave Coffin
How I live my life is I will go forward with an idea and just go for it, rather than researching before. I'll usually result in a bloodbath mongoloid of something, then see how others do it and reattempt, which yields different results. This is probably why I haven't had a solid relationship with a girl.
I am sick as hell right now, so this might not be very good, but it's something.
