    The document describes Kimberly Fults' project to develop fit skills using Optitex patternmaking software. Two virtual fittings were conducted - for sizes 10 and 14. The first prototype was too small due to issues with the software automatically adjusting measurements. The second prototype fit the client better after adjustments, but was too baggy on the virtual model, showing a disconnect between the real and virtual bodies. Overall, the project helped improve fitting abilities and provided a learning experience with digital patternmaking tools.
