MODULE 1 • Tracing Off the Men’s One-Piece Sleeve

Step Description
1 For this lesson, you would require a white unlined pattern paper measuring 20” (50.8cm) wide by 28” (71.2cm) long.
2A And now we begin the process of extracting the two-piece sleeve from the single-piece jacket sleeve. Our first step is to trace along the side seams using a tracing wheel. It’s very important to mark the end points and the intersection points. So, I am going to be tracing all along my back, side seam which is actually sleeve inseam. And, I’m going to mark this very well.
