Make your own clothes: How to draft your own pattern

4 Aug

Hello Everyone!

If you have tried shopping for patterns recently, you know how expensive they can sometimes be. They can literally run from $10-$30 depends on what you are trying to make. Why not learn how to draft your own pattern to make your own clothes? This tutorial is for a class shirt with sleeves. It uses a simple long sleeve shirt and my daughter’s art paper to get a pattern you can use over and over to make shirts similar to the template. I plan on doing a few more of these for dresses, skirts etc in the future.

This post was originally done for All Free Sewing a while ago and I have been meaning to share it with you all. You can visit AFS for the full tutorial on how to start making your own clothes.

Thanks for visiting and Happy Sewing!
