What’s so good about making a garment from a pattern that’s made just for you? It actually fits YOU! Perhaps it will help you make a better fitting garment, or a garment that doesn’t need you to make a couple of toiles. Whatever reason you choose to create a made to measure pattern for yourself, I believe it is definitely worth it.
Next you need to find somewhere that allows you to create a pattern where you input your measurements and create a pattern to your size. Luckily I have just the place for you……

I have been following the journey Joost has been on for quite a number of years and although I haven’t been in a financial position to become a patron, I try to support them with a coffee or a donation when I am able to.
You create ‘models’ of each person you are sewing for and once you have all their measurements input you are ready to download your made-to-measure pattern. I am also incredibly happy that they now offer A0 pdfs so that I can use my projector for cutting out.
Some of my favourite patterns that are on constant rotation are: The Simon shirt for hubby, the Florent cap and the Bruce boxers as well. Whenever I have made these for family they refuse to wear anything else so I know they are a winner.



Please support the team who do such an incredible job helping us sewing enthusiasts to create garments that fit well and therefore look amazing.
Happy New Sewing Year….
Let’s sew!
