Ursula Stroebel has completed 8 new pocket designs for both men's and women's jeans! I will get to see them in a few days so I will post them as soon as I can. Ursula is a very talented artist who lives in Atlanta. See more of Ursula's work here: http://www.artbyurs.com/
I have also contacted Laura Moore who is a self-taught free-lance pattern maker currently living in NYC, who has been in the industry since late 70’s. She considers herself a bit of a ‘dying breed’ because of her old school handwork and couture level construction. She works, as they say, on the table. She has been a sample maker, production manager, tech designer and worked in the tech design department.
She also does consulting for start-ups, however from what I read in a recent interview at http://www.39thandbroadway.com/ she wrote,
"I also do product development and consulting for potential startups, I have told many not to go forward because I was looking out for their best interest. If someone is consulting with me and they do not have the backing and business knowledge for a fashion line, then the company they are trying to make will not get there"
Well, Laura I respect what you are saying but I do hope I prove you wrong in this case! It is an interesting interview and you can read it here!
