The pattern included for these lessons is Reza's personal pattern. We want you to follow the lessons with a pattern that we know works. Using your own pattern may create problems that we have no control over, which can undermine your learning experience. Learning how to make a jacket can be overwhelming. Adding the pattern making process to it can be disastrous. The effective student takes one step at a time. In our experience, the fastest route to mastering this beautiful craft is to first focus on making a jacket with a well made pattern that isn't yours. This will eliminate any distractions that you otherwise would have when working with your personal pattern. We also want you to experience what it's like to make something for a "customer". Your approach will be very different. You will activate other parts of your brain. Your personal wishes and preferences will be turned off and you will concentrate on the techniques and not the likelihood of the jacket fitting you or you eventually wearing it. You will focus on becoming technically proficient. To increase the value of this process, we will hold periodical reviews. These are optional. You can send your work to us at a small fee and we can give you personal feedback. You will see your work on Reza and he will evaluate what you've done well and most importantly, what you can improve and how. More info on this service will be available soon.
