Exclusive sewing patterns for your business
If you have a specific design in mind then I am here to bring that to life!
How it works – Tell me all the details of the idea you have in mind and then I’ll create an illustration of what I think would be perfect. After the ok, I’ll go ahead and start drafting your exclusive pattern. I will toile up the design and then fit it on a fit model. Sometimes this takes several toiles to get it perfect. Once we get the sample size looking great, I can then grade the pattern pieces in different sizes. I will then send this over to you in a digital PDF file.
Prices vary on the project but a deposit of £100 is required before any work can proceed.
Please contact Yelena at info@sew-projects.com to enquire about this.
