In the wardrobe / Digital patterns from Something Delightful
« on: August 20, 2022, 18:44:01 PM »
I used to buy the occasional paper pattern from Club BMV sales but nothing since it became Something Delightful.

However they have Butterick digital patterns for $3.99 and was thinking of buying one - has any one in the UK bought a digital pattern from them?

In the wardrobe / Plus size Sewing and pattern advice please
« on: June 05, 2021, 17:49:07 PM »
I am not a standard size - short, dumpy and apple shaped. :S  I struggle to find ready made patterns to buy.  I haven't managed to grade a smaller pattern. I have done a small amount of pattern drafting, but struggle without instrctions to follow.
So I was wondering if anyone has any advice?
I am looking at at Lutterloh xxl and Wild Ginger software.  Both pricy to buy and I think I will still have the lack of instrctions. 
Petite Patterns Plus are drafted for my kind of figure I believe but aren't big enough size wise they only go up to US size 24 (UK 28).  So is anyone else in this conundrum and / or has any suggestions?
