Prototyping

vest patterns traced onto cottonassembling prototype in bastetaking corrections after fitting

Having the principal patterns drawn, the next thing to do is tracing the vest‘s pieces onto cotton, working out a textile base for trying out the new design, applying pins to adjust the fit where necessary, redrawing the seam-lines on the cotton using chalk to eventually copy the correct alterations back onto the patterns.
