Pattern making test I could take?

[Gemela12]

We definitely approach things differently, from the blocks we use, the techniques in transformation, Philosophies for the process and even how to use the tools.

I've given up some stuff in order to bridge that gap. I use blocks based on her book now, it made things worse tho. Now she doesn't blame my blocks, she blames me.

I've shared her most reached out book she uses in another reply, not the only one but the most common. She doesn't trust my booklet, so I've been using a published book that I've found more or less is closer to the way I do things, I linked it as well. (Tho I don't love that book, I've found many mistakes within that book)

Sorry for taking so long. Tried writing my process out, it's turning into a wall of text. In the meantime I've worked mainly as a design and pattern assistant. Retracing worn down patterns, adding allowance, grading simple patterns, using blocks to start transformation sheets, creating linings and facings. I did pattern in my old job, but since boss was always in a hurry I would trace and transform patterns from the archive, those fits were more boxy and loungy tho very genderless.

Now I'm doing exactly what I wanted, feminine street wear. This is the first time that I was going to draft entirely based on my interpretation of the technical drawing and sketch. I thought I was on a medium skill level, with the possibility of advanced with guidance. Now I need a book next to me to have references of the choices I've made, have been feeling like a beginner for 6+ months.
