Learn how to draft your very first Foundation Pattern — the custom template of your body that becomes the starting point for every well-fitting garment.
If you’ve ever wanted clothes that feel made for you (because they are),
this is where it all begins.
01
We’ll walk through lower-body measurements step-by-step and use my Measurement Worksheet that does all the math for you.
You’ll also learn why ready-made sizing charts are wildly inconsistent—and why custom measurements always win when you want clothing that truly fits.
02
Learn how to transform your measurements into a personalized Foundation Pattern—your reusable “body blueprint.”
We’ll explore shaping through the side seam and darts so you can see exactly how flat paper becomes a beautifully fitting garment.
03
I’ll show you how to true your lines, add grainlines, mark notches and awl punches, label everything clearly, and understand where seam allowances belong.
This is the moment drafting starts feeling real—and surprisingly doable.
BONUS
You’ll learn my simple, satisfying system for storing your custom patterns using a Pattern Card, so you can reuse your work again and again as your handmade wardrobe grows.
