Seamly 2D is an open source CAD software for fashion that allows you to design and create digital patterns. One of the most important steps in the creation of a garment is the construction of the pattern. In the fashion field several CAD software are used for the digitization of patterns, but they are extremely expensive. Seamly 2D can be downloaded for free and has a large community to support it. “Digital pattern making with Seamly2D” is the in-depth course on Seamly 2D software. Through points, lines and angles you can produce simple and complex projects. Many are its positive aspects, one of them being the fact that you can save and export the file in the format you prefer, both for laser cutting and for your home printer.
Even though the curse is online this is not a tutorial! Digital Patternmaking with Seamly2D is a live class where you can interact with the teacher, get to know all the tricks to make your workflow faster and smarter, design a pattern together in order to know the rules behind parametric patterns and get support in the development of one of your designs in real time.
