Summary: basic instructions for flat pattern & drape of childrenswear
Comment: This book is a basic instruction in the construction of childrenswear. It includes infant layette, boyswear, girlswear, how to find trims,& how to drape basic bodies to make a sloper. It gives directions on how to flat pattern jackets, pajamas, sleepers, skirts, pants and hoods. I am a student at the Fashion Institute of Technology in childrenswear and this is the textbook we use in our class. It was written by two professors who once directed the childrenswear department and have seince retired. The most helpful thing about this book is the tables in the back which give the measurements of the adverage infant, 2t - 4t, 6x, and 7 - 14. These tables can help you if you are flat patterning a very difficult garment and you must know, for example, what the neck to arm measurment is on the adverage 10 year old boy. The instructions are easy to follow, however, would be even easier to follow if they were numbered and the diagrams were labeled. You must bring your own creativity to this book because it just shows you the basics, nothing fancy. Overall I would say it was very helpful in my courses.
