THE PLUS SIZE KNITTED DRESS AND SLEEVE PATTERN BLOCK - in size 16 to 26- printed on A0 size paper in full scale with size guide and key pattern measurement chart.
My plus size range is based on a size 20 as a base size and the blocks are graded down to a 16 and up to a 26 from the size 20. The pattern measurements for the plus size range are more generous than the measurements of the basic blocks I have listed, which go up to a size 22.
THIS BLOCK IS IDEAL FOR SEMI- FITTED DRESSES MADE IN KNITTED FABRICS SUCH AS JERSEY AND FABRICS WITH A DEGREE OF STRETCH.
The blocks have been produced by a pattern cutter and grader with over 25 years industry experience. The blocks have all been drafted directly from the most up to date size charts, they are then thoroughly tested in stretch fabric before they are graded up and down to produce the full range of sizes supplied. All measurements are checked and key pattern measurements are supplied on the block sheet, in addition to this the blocks are supplied with a supplementary size chart with key measurements for sizes 6 to 26.
These blocks are produced without seam allowance and are intended for professional use and are of an industry standard.
The block pattern is produced in black and white, this helps us keep our printing costs down and enables us to offer our product at a fraction of the price of our nearest competitor.
PLEASE NOTE THESE ARE BASIC BLOCKS AND ARE DESIGNED FOR DESIGNERS AND DRESS MAKERS TO PRODUCE PATTERNS FROM- THEY ARE NOT DRESS MAKING PATTERNS.
PLEASE NOTE THE POSTAGE OPTIONS:
If you don't mind your pattern folded it can be posted as a large letter and this is the most economical postage option AND IS FREE!
IF YOU WOULD LIKE THE PATTERN ROLLED IN A TUBE THEN PLEASE CHOOSE THE MORE EXPENSIVE OPTIONS OF ROYAL MAIL 24 OR MYHERMES. UNFORTUNATELY POSTING A TUBE IS RATHER EXPENSIVE- HOWEVER ANY ADDITIONAL PATTERNS PURCHASED CAN BE POSTED IN THE SAME TUBE FOR FREE.
