Fabric and Apparel Patternmaker Career Video

Posted on November 10, 2019 by John Hardy


Fabric and apparel patternmakers turn a clothing
designer’s idea into a pattern used by seamstresses and tailors to create a wearable garment. Patternmakers draw and construct precise master
patterns that factor in all the adjustments needed to shape different sizes. They also create patterns for individual customers
based on their measurements. Patternmakers use a variety of tools… from
pencil and paper to scissors and knives… as well as drafting instruments and computer
applications. Their work is both creative and technical,
as they translate a designer’s artistic creation into a product that can be mass produced. Patternmakers must understand the qualities
of different fabrics—such as whether they’ll stretch and how much—and compute the amount
of fabric required to make a garment. Although a high school diploma is typically
required of prospective patternmakers, many have a bachelor’s degree. Previous related work experience or technical
training may be helpful.
