Description
There are many big and tall men who just don’t fit into ready-to-wear garments and the patterns that are available don’t fit much better. Broad shoulders, long arms, long torso, or a “belly” that hangs over the belt buckle can cause major problems with any shirt or pull-over that is available. Buttons don’t close, shirts won’t stay tucked in, long sleeves end up a couple of inches too short makes fitting a nightmare! Pattern Making for your big or tall man and boys can be the answer to fitting problems for large size men and large size teen age boys. The Oriental method of pattern making used in this book gives instructions on taking his measurements, then using those measurements to make patterns that will fit him perfectly. The clothing will have no choice but to fit because you’ve used HIS measurements for every pattern, not a “standard” set of measurements that garment manufacturer’s and pattern companies use. You can make dress shirts, sport shirts, pull-over shirts, vests, night wear and pants all with a perfect fit using Pattern Making For Big Men and Boys as a guide.
