A short route to your first garment on the platform. Follow the steps — the most important points are highlighted separately: print scale and the control square.
You need 5 basic ones: bust, waist and hip circumference, back length to waist, shoulder length. Keep the measuring tape snug, without tension, parallel to the floor on circumferences. Measure yourself twice: if the difference is more than 1 cm — measure a third time.
💡 Bust is measured across the prominent points of the bust and shoulder blades; waist — at the narrowest place; hips — at the widest (accounting for the belly).
In your account: “Projects” → “New project” → enter measurements. Describe the garment in words (“wrap pencil skirt”, “double-breasted coat”) — the classifier will pick the construction block itself.
💡 For children's garments specify the height — the kids' measurement grid and grading by height will turn on.
The v3 engine builds the construction using the Müller method in seconds and checks itself: shoulder and side seam balance, sleeve cap length vs armhole. All remarks are shown as a list — read them, this is honest diagnostics, not decoration. Important: patterns are built by engineering formulas, not generated by a neural network — AI here only analyzes the model photo (the green dashed modeling lines on the draft).
💡 Control lengths (shoulder, side, armhole, cap, step) are labeled in blue on the draft — compare them with your method.
Download the PDF — it is assembled from A4 sheets with alignment marks. In the print dialog be sure to choose “Actual size” / “Scale 100%”, NOT “fit to page”.
💡 Print one sheet with the control square first — check it, then print everything.
A 100×100 mm square is printed on the first sheet. Measure it with a ruler: it must be exactly 100 mm on both sides.
💡 A deviation over 1 mm means the print scale is wrong: check the 100% setting and disable “fit to page”.
The pattern comes with: an assembly order with seam types, a tech sheet with equipment (downloaded separately), DXF/PLT export for CAD and plotters. Sew the first garment from a new construction in mock-up fabric.
