Trouser Block - Fitting Toile
Wednesday, July 12, 2017
So often I'm asked how I make my fitting toile's for Trouser Blocks, so I'd thought I'd put together a short post with some detail. Many of the points are small but essential for a good #FirstFitting. You can access a download of my Trouser Block here. I've also uploaded a worksheet that covers the detail for the first stage of fitting the trouser block. The PDF worksheet includes detail instructions and technical diagrams to take you through every step of the process.

Design Options for my Skirt Block
Tuesday, January 17, 2017
This is another in the post series where I curate my many blog posts so you can use them to self-train at your own pace. This post is focussed on my basic skirt block and I've listed all the pattern puzzle posts that use this block. Because there are so many posts, I've decided to separate the designs that need a stretch skirt block and I'll be featuring them in a separate post. Also my more demanding drape skirt patterns will be posted separately.

SEWING PATTERNS
These are the first of my sewing patterns as PDF downloads for you to buy and sew. The more I sell the more time I have to make new ones. So if you fancy supporting the work I do here on the well-suited blog, this is your opportunity. These patterns are based on my size chart listed here on the website.
ALL MY GARMENT BLOCKS
Garment blocks are the basic template we use to make fashion patterns. They are not patterns in themselves as they have no design detail. My garment blocks also don't have any seam allowances as they are never sewn together once the fit is perfected. If you look at any of my Pattern Puzzle posts you'll see that I usually start with a block then modify to achieve my new design idea. These garment blocks are also based on my size chart as required for the mass production of fashion clothing.
