Bias Cut Blueprints: a Geometric Method for Clothing Design and Construction

A Novel Approach to Bias-Cut Garment Design and Construction Timeless, sexy, and romantic. A bias-cut dress can make any woman feel like a goddess. However, when you talk about sewing one, you might hear some negative views about it. “It's tricky to sew.” “It uses too much fabric.” “The seams sag or ripple.” “It needs tons of basting.” What if you could stop trying to control the bias and instead start using its unique properties in your favor? What if that enabled you to make fabulous clothes that fit and flatter? The Bias Cut Blueprints method: - Eliminates bias-cut sewing, most seams are on the straight-of-grain - A wide range of sizes is included, as well as a method to make the garments for any size! - Produces complicated-looking designs with a streamlined process - Is efficient in both time and fabric, with only tiny amounts of material left over The projects in this book are modular with many options for mixing and matching. 5 Blouses 3 Neckline Variations 3 Sleeves 8 Skirt Variations Add in tunic and dress lengths and over 200 garments are possible!
