Ski Bib

 

Ski Bib Technical Drawing

 

Reference PDF with technical drawings and 3D images of the Ski Bib.

 

Ski Bib Creation – Part 1

In this lesson, we begin the construction of the Ski Bib. We cover adding darts and diamond darts and how to construct the shell patterns of the pants.

Topics: Darts, Diamond Darts, Pleats, Insert Tool, Cut Marks, Clusters, Arrange, Stitch, Prepare, Bottoms Construction, Pockets, Waistband

 

Ski Bib Creation – Part 2

In this lesson, we'll add zippers to the pocket opening, include a snow gaiter, integrate zippers with vents on the legs, and enhance the leg patterns with facing and reinforcement at the hem.

Topics: Smart Zippers, Pocket construction, Snow gaiter, Vents, Edge Reinforcement, Force Multiplier, Shrink, Edge assignable trims, Assign tool, Multi stitch, 3D layers, Puffy physics, Arrange mode

 

Ski Bib Creation – Part 3

In this lesson, we focus on constructing the waistband and integrating an elastic belt with Velcro straps.

Topics: Waistband Construction, Elastic Belt, Velcro Straps, Internal Lines, 3D Layers, Clusters, Inner Symmetry

 

Ski Bib Creation – Part 4

In this lesson, we delved into constructing the bib of the garment, starting with the front and back bodice patterns and moving on to the straps with 3D trims.

Topics: 3D Trims, 3D Trim Connectors, Stitch Tool, Simulation, 3D Styling

 

Ski Bib Creation – Part 5

In this final lesson of the Ski Bib creation series, we focused on crucial steps to complete the garment. Key tasks included adding the front zipper, wind list, and zipper garage, followed by reassigning puffy physics to enhance the garment's appearance.

Topics: 3D layers, Stitching, Puffy Physics, Simulation, 3D Styling
