Learn How to Draft Your Own Custom Blocks
Under the Blocks Menu you can find step-by-step instructions for drafting the following Blocks: Bodice, Sleeve, Skirt & Pants. In my system I draft the Bodice Block based on the Upper Bust rather than the Bust; this eliminates the need to make a large-bust-adjustment for those with a non-standard bust (i.e. anything other than a B-Cup). Note that Bust Cup sizes for Patternmaking are different (and can be VERY different) to Bra Cup sizes. See my YouTube videos for comprehensive detail.
