I brought in a jacket to the studio today that I was planning to make a pattern out of (lets say my size has improved since I bought it a few years ago...) Tanya suggested we try a method she had read about in Threads magazine using masking tape. I gasped, hyperventilated a little, and then said, "Sure, why not! It sounds fun!" My draping teacher would have banned me from class, however it was a great method for making a pattern! I won't say it was easy, I did have to true up the pieces, measure them and it took quite a while...but it was fun and I know I will pull this trick out of my hat often.
