pattern cutting

Pattern cutting was initially something I found really quite difficult, as I had never done it before. I come from more of a textile background so that was mainly more drawing, painting and knitting. However fashion is what I am more inspired and interested in, so  pattern cutting was one of the skills I was defiantly going to have to master if I want to achieve the skills I need to be a designer.
Dart rotation was the thing I found most difficult, as I was Quite far behind trying to keep up with everybody else, so I wasn't able to fully understand the technique of dart rotation. However after stressing out slightly and getting the Pattern Cutting tutor to show me the technique again, I was able to understand dart rotations better. After struggling in the first few weeks, as there was a mass of information to take in, I have improved in my pattern cutting quite a bit.
