Is there some way to have a consult with you about using vintage B/W drafted pattern sketches? I want to scale them into something useable.
Hello! Thank you for your comment. I am not sure if I’d be the right person to help with this since I haven’t worked a lot with pattern sketches. But, you could probably use one of the ideas in this article to digitizing paper patterns to transfer your sketches to digital format. Feel free to email me at contact@projectorsewing(dot)com.

Sheredith, I’m so pleased to see your website grow. I’ve sent so many people your way. Your skill with software is so delightful. I zoomed a vintage pattern drawing in until it reached a close approximation to a pattern laying on my cutting mat. I made a toile and if fit beautifully. There are some amazing vintage drawings out in the world.
Thank you, Jen! I appreciate it! So glad to hear about your vintage drawing pattern; that is exciting!
I would love some help using Inkscape to do a full bust adjustment for a top in knit fabrics. I have been able to start doing this but there are a few issues I could do with help with. I am very willing to pay for a tutorial. Is there anyone who could help me?
Hello! I don’t currently have a tutorial out on this, but they are on my list! In the meantime, check out Marta’s videos on YouTube. She walks through a Full Bust Adjustment on a T-shirt in Inkscape: https://youtu.be/cbFdzSnVGpM
