She has carefully cleaned and adjusted vintage patterns she has scavenged from old books that work on a similar drafting system. Have I piqued your interest yet? Now as amazing as the Lutterloh system is, it can be pricy to buy into, especially if you're not sure about it, which is why I'd like to introduce you to Embonpoint Vintage. Tracing of the tiny drawing in the middle of the actual size sleeve!
First trace the tiny pattern piece then, pivot the tape, mark the dots, then play connect the dots and TaDa! You have a pattern piece. I found it easiest to draw this on my cork board. So, once you find your design you flip the little paper over and tada! You have your pattern pieces!įront, shown on left side, shows the design. Really like those kid's shorts? No problem! Using this magic tape measure everything will come out your size! The neat thing about this being a drafting system is that any design can be made for any person. You can draft the bodice section one size and the skirt section another, helping you achieve a better fit.īut wait! I'm getting ahead of myself! First you want to choose your design!! Feast your eyes on these beauties.įrom the personal collection of All The Precious Things I think this is especially nice for those of us with differing tops and bottoms. Then you stick a pin in the tiny hole next to either your Bust/Chest or Hip measurement depending on which article of clothing you are drafting. First you pull out a tape measure that looks nothing like any tape measure you've ever seen before. The rest of the world is good to go but for those of us in the US make sure you can convert your measurements into metric. If not, remember to add them so you get the correct fit.ĥ. If you use Burda you're probably already used to this. Since you are drafting to your size and we're all uniquely proportioned people this makes sense but you better have some idea of how much fabric your design is going to take.Ĥ. No fabric recommendations other than the picture.ģ.

(At least that's how it felt to me) Imagine my surprise when I realized I actually had a kit in my possession! In a recent pattern dilemma I decided to break it out and see if this system was all it's cracked up to be. Dip your toe into the vintage pattern world and a name that comes up in whispered awe is Lutterloh.
