If you love to sew your own clothes, you’ve definitely come across and used commercial sewing patterns at some point, but did you know that those patterns originate from blocks or slopers? And those blocks and slopers are created using a technique called pattern drafting. Pattern drafting is a pattern making process using the measurements of different body areas to create basic patterns – or blueprints if you like – of essential pattern blocks – this is often referred to as a pattern set!

Blocks If you have found my content useful, please consider buying me a cup of coffee to support the continuation of this website. Blocks (or Slopers): The Basics This page gives some general information on blocks. See the menu to visit the pages with instructions for drafting your own blocks and downloading Third Scale Blocks

For This basic sleeve block the meassurments are: Sleeve Length : 65 cm Front Armhole : mark by X Back Armhole : mark by Y (the front and back armhole meassurements are taken from the torso block or according to the measurment of the model)

Buy licensed basic blocks and basic sewing patterns to give to your students for use in your online pattern making course.
