The textile base for the Red Shirt is a lightweight fabric construction of a well-fitting coupe on which I can conveniently draw the shirt’s design-lines using a marker to precisely locate all the seam points on my body.

Doesn’t look much like it
It is not supposed to.
It’s a construction base, portraying the tailored shape of the garment devided over carefully placed naps, cut out of cheap equally dense fabric.
Once It is right, I can easily draw my design on it using a marker, then cut the base into pieces in order to gain my definite patterns.
I added an ‘after’ shot for comprehensibility.
