[Edit: How do people know what 2D shapes go together to make certain 3D shapes when *making patterns.]
I know if someone wanted to sew a cube, they would cut 6 squares and sew them together. If they wanted to sew a pyramid, they would cut 1 square and 4 triangles.
But what about weird shapes like with stuffed animals? If someone had never seen a sewing pattern for a teddy bear in their entire life, how would they know what shapes to cut and sew to make the teddy bear?
(It seems simple in concept, but it’s hard to imagine how certain shapes would come together to create something like a humanoid doll.)

So you make a proto-type shirt, put it on a mannequin, keep adjusting it until you like it, then use that and panel it out so you can mass produce it.
Same with anything. Proto-type then figure out step by step how to assemble.
This is how I made panels for a vest for my son’s cosplay. Form fit one of his shirts to him with duct tape and panel it out. I still have the pieces of poster board for all the panels with adjustment edges if I need to enlarge it should I need to make another.
