Plus Size Sewing Patterns

The Cornelius Western Shirt pattern was my first from Closet Core, my first ever shirt, and my first collar with a stand. It was a beautiful sew and I'll make another. Great drafting, crystal clear instructions, with lots of inspiration from videos and blogs to personalise the shirt. I did a straight shirt - no darts, piping or in-your-face topstitching - to start with. Just a bit of grading between sizes around the belly. Fits perfectly and is very comfy to wear. Make #2 will be the party version -- with piping and hand embroidered yokes. The only issue that would make our lives easier is for less ease on the sleeve head please. Yes, we can use gathers, but why bother if you can do without? Love, love, love this pattern. Just the ease please!

Brilliant pattern

I made up my usual size with no adjustments and they fitted beautifully. I’ve made both view a and view b and love the pocket detail. Will be making more!

Such a wonderful service!

I’m so happy I found out that you can print out PDF patterns, it’s such an easy process as well. The printing part is what usually keeps me from getting started so it’s such a big help. Thank you!

Magnifique

Couleur riche, tissu solide et souple à la fois. Juste parfait.

You’re doing great! i'll just have to be careful with the hard-to-see lines hahah...

I haven’t had the chance to cut the pattern yet, and currently I don’t have any fabric in stock that’s suitable for this project. and there aren’t many fabric options available here. I’ll be traveling to Indonesia soon, and I plan to explore fabric shops there. I’m hoping to find some interesting fabrics and sewing materials that I can grab.

Overall, when it comes to patterns, I think there is not much different when come to the measurements and construction details. I’m particularly interested in the piping details Cornelius added to the collar and armholes. It really gives the piece a more professional finish. I also want to give credit to Cornelius pocket design idea; it’s quite fun and playful, just like him. I think I might have an idea for another casual shirt project for leisure wear.

cheers,
Julie
