a pair of culottes

at long last I have sorted out the mess I was in,this is a photo of garments I did for don mccuns intro to design course
we made an apron on a bottle to show how darts shape the pattern
I made these culottes in quarter scale just to demonstrate what can be done
the top is just a "boob tube" and the cocoon pattern is somewhere on this blog,will find out where and let you know,plus explainations of the pattern will be put up after the weekend

working on quarter scale patterns

I have been lucky to have been in don mccunns class on introducing design
don uses a wine bottle to make an apron pattern on to show how darts work in a skirt pattern
I have a quarter scale manniqin so I did a few things to show what can be achieved
am having problems uploading at the moment ,but when I can get the computer and picasa to talk with blogger I will upload some photos and sketches of patterns
