Block Patterns : McCunn

Measurements

Like all patternmaking systems, the McCunn system is defined by the measurements that Don McCunn chose to use. The McCunn system uses inches, but if your measurement file has centimeters and it contains all the measurements used by the McCunn system then SeamlyMe will automatically convert it into inches.

Measurements File

Here is a sample measurement file for the McCunn system -- McCunn_sample.vit.

Measurements Table

This table lists the measurements used in the McCunn system and maps them to SeamlyMe measurement names:
