Hello,

I am having trouble with the Front bodice draft pattern of the book
"Pattermaking for fashion design".

Page 35 (in the 4th edition), figure 3, it says:
"J to K= Side length
Out 1 1/4 inches out from E line"

But side length from J does not give me K, so I need another measurement.
Maybe "Out 1 1/4 inches out from E line" could help me but I have no idea
what she means ( English is a foreign language to me as I am french) :(

Anybody here that could help me ?
Thanks.
Best Regards.
Patricia

I don't have the book, but "out" means to move away from you. I will
check later and see if i have this book.
Can you scan and post a picture somewhere?

If you want to scan the page and send it to me I could prahaps help, my
email is claire....owen@free.fr ( take out the dots to join up the claire
to the rest and it will work.
Out means you are moving away from.
I read the origanal instruction as J to K being the line you are looking
for and it is 1 and a quarter inches away from E
