Custom Patterns


Imagine this…

You have some great design ideas for a costume, prom gown, festival or just that fabulous look to brighten your day on a rainy Monday. But you can’t find the right pattern! Or perhaps you found the pattern, but the sizes are way different then your body shape. Sigh..
I know about this! That’s what got me into pattern making in the first place. Everything I made didn’t actually fit right. I either wanted it longer, or shorter, or more fitted, or…all of that.

Well, let me help you out! I draft patterns for theatre shows, for prom night, wedding or even graded patterns for production. You can send me a photo or sketch of your idea &  measurements. I will make and send your pattern in two pdf formats, which can be printed at a print shop as well as at your home printer.
Having a personal pattern can help you create as many versions of your design as you wish.

Options and more options:

There are different ways to go about this. Are you just looking for a good pattern and don’t have a large budget, then the Basic option is the choice to go with.
Do you wish to really dive into perfect fitting then I would definitely choose the Medium or Supreme option. Of which the last one is only possible when actually living near me. Which is normally Culemborg in The Netherlands, nut currently in Indiana USA. If you wish to have your ideas produced and you actually need a graded size range then the Size-pack is the one to go for.

Prices stated below are for basic patterns and will increase with complexity, the amount of pattern pieces, and/or size range. You can mail us a sketch or photo of your design and you will get an actual quotation.
