Sewing Patterns

We have a few different size ranges, because we are working on expanding our size range. Some patterns have a size range from 1-10, spanning a bust size from 31.5-49″ (80-124cm). Others go up to a size 30 or 64″ (162.5 cm) hip. You can find the body size and finished measurement charts for every pattern on their product page, and the body size charts on this page.

At the moment we offer PDF patterns only. The download package for each pattern includes both a print at home and a print at the copyshop version.

For our older patterns, our sizes 1-6 are designed for a B cup, and our sizes 7-10 are designed for a C cup. There are overlapping sizes drafted in between – a size 7 with a B-cup, and a size 6 with a C-cup. The Nautilus Bikini and Ultraviolet Tee however goes up to a cup size F.

Both your pattern and your instructions carry a Version number. You can find this number on the right hand corner of the instructions, and on the first page of the pattern. The downloadable files in your account will always be the latest version. Compare the two to see if you have the latest version, and check the version log to see if the changes in the latest version require you to print it out again or not.

All patterns are drafted with a 5/8″ (1.5 cm) seam allowance, unless otherwise noted.

Our patterns are intended for home-use only. That means that they can not be used for commercial purposes, such as re-selling or selling garments made with them. You can use the pattern to make something for someone else as a gift.
