There are several benefits for a designer using Vetigraph including; improvements in cutting quality, control and reduction of costs at the sampling stage, instant product costing and much more.
The aim of the course was to equip learners with the fundamental skills to create accurate first patterns and to simplify the grading process. Vetigraph tutor Clemence Amaral Pereira provided her invaluable expertise of the software and the use of the software. Learners were taught multiple processes including; creating a skirt block, generating patterns creating darts and pleats.

Here are a few comments:
“I have been given a clear view of how to use Vetigraph in a way that was easy to understand and very helpful for future use. I have really enjoyed this course and the atmosphere, as it was a relaxed environment with no pressures! Thank you very much” Stephanie
“I have learnt how Vetigraph is a much better and easier software to use. I have been able to learn how to create my own block pattern (which I’ve never done) and the whole process of the digital pattern cutting from start to finish. I have really enjoyed the experience and I’m certain it was worth it. It has been fantastic few days!” Sophie
