Patterns that simplify your sewing
Easily identify each pattern piece: they are arranged side-by-side, without overlapping for simplified cutting. No need to worry about seam allowances, they are already included. You save time and enjoy a smooth, stress-free sewing experience😊.
One pattern = multiple possibilities
With our multi-variant patterns, you have the freedom to create multiple styles from a single design. Each variant allows you to customize your projects according to your desires.
Fewer constraints, more creativity, and always the satisfaction of wearing something that reflects you!
Tested and approved!
Before being released, each pattern is tested by a group of impact testers. These sewers of all levels validate the pattern, the instructions, and especially the good fit of the garment in all sizes.
The result? No unpleasant surprises: you sew a pattern that has been tested and approved, ready to be successful in real life!
Collapsible content
Seam allowance included
Cut your fabric following the pattern outlines. You do not need to add any seam allowance as it is already included. For your information: seam allowances are 1 cm and hems are 2 cm. For technical reasons, these measurements may vary, but in that case, I will let you know 😊
No overlapping parts
Perfectly mark out the pattern pieces; placed next to each other, they do not overlap.
