patternmaker

/pˈætɚnmˌeɪkɚ/ noun

Someone whose occupation is to make patterns, which are used as a guide in the manufacture of something else.

Word Origin Pattern comes from Latin pater 'father' via Old French patron, originally meaning a model or example — the idea of a father as a prototype to follow. So a patternmaker is someone who fashions those guiding models. The maker part is from Proto-Germanic *makōną 'to make', and you can see it in match (a fitting together) and makeshift. The pater root also gives us patron, paternal, and expatriate (out of the fatherland).
