Pattern Magic

Product Information

It’s a fairly well known series of patternmaking books from Japan. There are others, too, but what I love about these in particular, is that instead of just giving you the finished pattern to copy, the book explains how to draft it yourself! That way you have the possibility to make all kinds of different versions of your own using the various techniques explained. It’s difficult to say which one is my favorite. Each book has designs that I like. However I’ve done most variations on the pieces from book number 2, so I guess this means that it’s the most inspirational for me. What is Pattern Magic? Hayashi K, Morooka N, Yamamoto Y, Fujita K, Isono K, Choi S, Ohtsubo E, Baba T, Wanner BL, Mori H, Horiuchi T (2006) Highly accurate genome sequences of Escherichia coli K-12 strains MG1655 and W3110. Mol Syst Biol 2: 2006 0007 10.1038/msb4100049 [ PMC free article] [ PubMed] [ Google Scholar] Easy-to-follow, detailed instructions make it easy to create stunning, sculptural clothes with a couture look

All the projects include step-by-step instructions with diagrams and lots of photos. Some are more difficult than others to understand, depending on your experience. Personally, I often use the books as inspiration, even just by looking at the pictures.

Photographs of the finished garments will inspire you to create your own designs. The companion volume to the cult Japanese Pattern Magic and Pattern Magic 2 that fans have been waiting for.

The first book teaches how to insert knots, twists, cubes, holes, craters etc into your basic bodice. A version of the bamboo-bodice is in this book, too. Some techniques are surprising, as you literally attach the element with tape or pins on the garment and use style-lines to melt it into the pattern.

Mutants of the remaining 58 ORFs (33 with mixtures and 25 with duplications; Figure 1C) were tested in a second set of PCR reactions, which was carried out using external primers flanking the targeted gene ( Figure 1A and B). A positive result in the first PCR test can occur not only from mutants with a partial duplication but also from ones that have been cross-contaminated from a nearby microplate well. Therefore, the second set of PCR tests was performed on three colonies after colony purification. In the second PCR test, colonies with the correct deletion or from a cross-contaminant mutant were expected to yield a single PCR product of length corresponding to the expected structure of the respective single-gene mutant or the structure of the targeted gene, respectively. In contrast, mutants with both the respective single-gene deletion and a genetic duplication were expected to yield both PCR products. In cases wherein the sizes of the predicted PCR products were indistinguishable for the deletion and wild-type structures, the PCR products were digested with XbaI before size separation by electrophoresis, which cuts within the kan (kanamycin resistance gene) replacement gene. bFraction of correct single-gene deletion candidates upon Keio collection construction ( Baba et al, 2006). There’s a dress with a group of knots in the front. What a great idea! The knots create an interesting texture. I made a different version by inserting the knots on the shoulders of a bodice and added some gathering, too. Gathered bodice with knotsI’ve tried almost every design in this book and then I made my own versions of some of them by changing The design of the Keio deletions was based on annotations that are now outdated. Of 4288 ORFs targeted, mutants were obtained for 3985 ( Baba et al, 2006). Re-annotation based on highly accurate sequencing of E. coli K-12 ( Hayashi et al, 2006) led to changing many coding regions and the total number of ORFs to 4296, including pseudogenes ( Riley et al, 2006) ( Supplementary Table I). The recent E. coli K-12 MG1655 GenBank record (U0096, released in December 2008) has an additional 97 ORFs (exclusive of the ORFs in IS elements, Supplementary Table II) that were not targeted. Of these 4214 annotated ORFs, 4186 were targeted for deletion and 28 were not ( Supplementary Table III), which resulted in the isolation of two independent mutants for 3864 targeted ORFs. No deletion was found for 299 ORFs, which are candidates for essential genes. Deletions were also isolated for 23 other ORFs; however, re-annotation led to re-classification of these ORFs as ‘split ORFs', because their coding regions are interrupted by an IS element or some other mutation ( Supplementary Table IV).

Then there’s a design called ” Like a jungle” where the bodice front is separated with stylelines into slices that overlap each other. I had an idea that I wanted the overlapping area to create a flower-shape in the middle by leaving little holes in between the slices. Well, I’m not too happy with the result, but probably I could make it work by editing the pattern some more. Jungle-flower Here you can find garments inspired by the various geometrical shapes: circle, triangle and square. There’s a chapter on accordion-technique, with examples of that being inserted both in a sleeve and into a bodice. I’ve done a few designs using this technique and I love the way it creates really sculptural shapes. Here’s one. Accordion-sculpture The Keio collection ( Baba et al, 2006) has been established as a set of single-gene deletion mutants of Escherichia coli K-12. These mutants have a precisely designed deletion from the second codon from the seventh to the last codon of each predicted ORF. Further information is available at http://sal.cs.purdue.edu:8097/GB7/index.jsp or http://ecoli.naist.jp/. The distribution is now being handled by the National Institute of Genetics of Japan ( http://www.shigen.nig.ac.jp/ecoli/pec/index.jsp). To date more than 4 million samples have been distributed worldwide. As we described earlier ( Baba et al, 2006), gene amplification during construction is likely to have led to a small number of mutants with genetic duplications.I first discovered these books during a sewing course. One of the fellow-students had brought the first two books with her in class and we were all leafing through them, amazed by the designs. Of course I then had to get the books myself, too.
