Description
The Pattern Grading for the Home Sewer Workbook is a step-by-step guide to changing the size of your patterns for a custom fit. You may already be aware of what a grade rule is and how much a pattern grows or shrinks between sizes. You can find this information in the size chart of your pattern. The Grade Rule used to make the different sizes is the difference between the pattern measurements. Usually, smaller sizes 0-8 have a 1 1/2″ difference between sizes. This would be a 1 1/2″ Grade Rule. This difference gets greater as sizes get larger – Typically from 2″ to 3″ or more. Included in the Workbook are a variety of grade rules you can use to adjust your pattern up or down a size. I’ll show you how use my JSD Grading Ruler to get accurate results. The easy to follow instructions include illustrations for each step in the process.
