Before sewing can begin, pattern pieces must be made, layouts determined, and fabric cut. Following the outline of the pattern, they place multiple layers of material on the cutting table and use an electric knife or other cutting tools to cut out the various pieces of the garment; delicate materials may be cut by hand. In some companies, computer-controlled machines do the cutting.
Take the patterns and cut out material, paying close attention to their work because mistakes are costly.
