Measurement Chart
Use the sizing
chart on the pattern envelope to match your measurements to the correct
size for that garment. All sizes are included in one envelope, so
you can easily combine them for a custom fit. For example, on the
pattern pieces with multiple cutting lines, you might use the cutting
line for one size in the bust and waist area, but gradually move over to
the the next size cutting line for the hip area.
Sized from XX - Small to XX -
Large or 4 XL, each pattern is multi-sized for easy pattern alteration
for the perfect fit. Since these patterns are simple in line, they are
the perfect background for personalization and embellishment with an
abundance of techniques which Lyla willingly shares with cheerful
consent.
All patterns are
multi-sized - all sizes are in one envelope.
