The pattern creation time before it's ready to ship can take between 8 days and/or 2-3 weeks, depending on demand. This can vary each month. If you need it urgently, please let me know, and I'll put your order on the priority list.
ABOUT TARIFFS, DUTIES and IMPORT FEES:
When you order from UNITED STATES, your package may be subject to government charges like duties, taxes, or import fees before it can be delivered by the carrier (i.e. your postal carrier or an express carrier).Please, read before purchasing. This is a paper sewing pattern
Each item includes an image of a paper pattern. The image is meant to show the type of paper you will receive and how it’s been cut.
I'm a pattern maker, and all my patterns are handmade to a standard size or a custom size. That way, some measurements can be modified if necessary.
They contain English notes as well as notches that make it easy to join the pieces of the pattern together. A cutting diagram and information on the required yardage are included.
To keep prices down, SEWING INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT INCLUDED. Instead, I add CONSTRUCTION STEPS for your pattern.
- No hem or seam allowance.
- No detailed instructions, only the notches and symbols, and named lines, basic instructions.
- No step-by-step illustrations to go with instructions.
However, I can write some basic construction steps if you need or any specific steps in the process that you would like me to describe.

How to choose a STANDARD SIZE?
I can make standard sizes S, M, L, or XL with small adjustments to better fit you.
Sizes are a tricky issue, and there aren’t any hard-and-fast rules, but I’d say my list of sizes is more European than American.
To assure the best fit possible, please refer to my INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO TAKE MEASUREMENTS here:
https://www.contrapuntpatterns.com/taking-measurements
The best way to know your size is to take some measurements of yourself and use them to gauge your size. I can also modify a pattern to better fit your measurements.
For example:
You choose size S (Europe 40-42). If your body is closer to the first number, 86 (Upper bust/Torax 86-88 cm), than the second, 88, please tell me. Otherwise, the pattern will be the standard size S of between 86-88 cm for the upper bust.
.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~
All sizes, both standard and custom, can be modified to your liking (for example, waist higher or lower; skirt longer, shorter, wider, narrower, etc.). A dress can be made as either one or two pieces, such as a blouse and skirt, for instance. Please specify any of these alterations by email or at the bottom of the form “Taking measurements”.
