Pattern Cutting Deconstructed

I had the pleasure of being taught by Moni for 40 weeks. We initially started by doing zoom lessons, but later changed to in-person sessions as this was better due to the need for fitting and more hands-on demonstrations. Moni was very patient with me and explained things really well. Moni had me pad out my dressform to my size, and we then draped a basic bodice block from that. She showed me how to transfer this to a flat pattern and then we developed various styles from there. It was a ver...
