Pattern Magic

Product Information

As you can see, the second book has inspired quite a few designs for me! And to be honest, now that I was leafing through it, I started planning a couple of new ones, too… Access-restricted-item true Addeddate 2023-01-04 02:01:12 Autocrop_version 0.0.14_books-20220331-0.2 Boxid IA40812102 Camera USB PTP Class Camera Collection_set printdisabled External-identifier I first discovered these books during a sewing course. One of the fellow-students had brought the first two books with her in class and we were all leafing through them, amazed by the designs. Of course I then had to get the books myself, too. The first Pattern Magic book in Japanese was published in 2005. The English edition came out later, in 2010, published by Laurence King Publishing Ltd. Nowadays you can find Pattern Magic also in German, Spanish and French. Currently there are three books on woven fabrics and one on stretch fabrics.

You can create a garment by cutting, moving and reassemblingthe piecesof a pattern, just like the pieces of. a pazzle.Take the pieces of a three-dimensional garment apart and flatten them, to get individual pattern pieces. Then there’s a design called ” Like a jungle” where the bodice front is separated with stylelines into slices that overlap each other. I had an idea that I wanted the overlapping area to create a flower-shape in the middle by leaving little holes in between the slices. Well, I’m not too happy with the result, but probably I could make it work by editing the pattern some more. Jungle-flower

There isn’t much information to be found about the author Tomoko Nakamichi. I searched on the internet, but I could only find the same information that’s also written in the Pattern Magic -books: She was a professor at Bunka Fashion College in Tokyo and now delivers lectures and holds courses both in Japan and internationally. All the garments in the pictures are actually in half-scale. Nakamichi created them with trial-and-error approach and they served to help her students understand better how patterns work. Basics The designs in these books are pretty unique: not exactly your everyday garments! The approach is definitely creative. It opens your mind to a completely different way of constructing patterns. It’s mostly flat-patternmaking, although many times it looks like one would have to drape to get such results.

The Keio collection ( Baba et al, 2006) has been established as a set of single-gene deletion mutants of Escherichia coli K-12. These mutants have a precisely designed deletion from the second codon from the seventh to the last codon of each predicted ORF. Further information is available at http://sal.cs.purdue.edu:8097/GB7/index.jsp or http://ecoli.naist.jp/. The distribution is now being handled by the National Institute of Genetics of Japan ( http://www.shigen.nig.ac.jp/ecoli/pec/index.jsp). To date more than 4 million samples have been distributed worldwide. As we described earlier ( Baba et al, 2006), gene amplification during construction is likely to have led to a small number of mutants with genetic duplications. It’s difficult to say which one is my favorite. Each book has designs that I like. However I’ve done most variations on the pieces from book number 2, so I guess this means that it’s the most inspirational for me. What is Pattern Magic?
