The Studio Faro Corset Block is the result of a pattern-making project for a local designer.  Designed and fitted to meet industry standards, it’s a favourite with manufacturers and textile teachers.   Checkout my Worksheets for pattern making instructions for corsets.

Available here as a PDF download to be printed as A2, A3 and  A4/letter formats.  Available in Sizes 6-16.

NB:  This product is available for either home or business use, using the drop down menu.  By purchasing the teaching/business option you have my permission to use the worksheet in the classroom and workplace.  You do not have permission to resell, upload to the internet or sharing platform, or alter in any way.

Corset Block features:

This four panel corset block, is supplied without seam allowances (N.S.A.) for first pattern developments.  It’s graded to sizes 6-16 and can be used exactly as it is, with the process line seams, for your first corset.

It’s home and industry ready and based on my size chart.  The block fitting is extended slightly past the waist for a classic corset fit.  When you check the measurements on the size you have selected you’re looking for a close body fit without garment ease.

Where do I start:

The first order of business is to select your closest size and begin the process of fitting this block to your own measurements.  The range of sizes on offer relates to my size chart.  Cut your closest size in calico and make any necessary adjustments for personal fit.  I’ll be producing some videos and tutorials that will help out in this process.  Once you have achieved a good personal fit you will be ready to cut your first patterns.

For your first patterns I’ve put together a pattern making worksheet for my corset block, available as a PDF download:  Corset Pattern Making Worksheet

Remember I’m just an email away for any questions about our PDF downloadable blocks.  If you enjoy pattern making and fancy a challenge, have a look at the great pattern making posts on our blog, well-suited.

Enjoy.
