If you want to truly understand how patterns work, this is the line of books to get. You will learn the “how” and “why” behind patternmaking that will allow you to execute your designs. Most books only teach readers to follow a few formulas, which is great if you only need to make that one pattern, but they fail to teach the problem-solving skills and foundational knowledge needed to implement pattern making skills in a wide array of circumstances. I currently own all of Laurel’s grading and sewing books and they taught me the foundations needed for any job working in fashion design/ technical design. As a self-taught designer who has spent well over $1,000 on instructional material, I can vouch to the quality of these books. Like with anything, you get out of these books what you put into them. If you can focus and stay consistent, these books will teach you what is not even taught in most $100k fashion degree programs. (I know this because some of my peers who have graduated from top fashion university still struggle to grasp basic concepts taught in this book.)
