Women's 12% Curvy One Piece Block (Swimwear/General Use)
Note: This block is staying at 50% off until I can get enough feed back on adjustments for my research on plus size shaping. Please consider sending me your measurements and which adjustment options you selected so I can help teach students how to do better plus size pattern making. Thank you.
Let me start by saying that this is the Holy Grail for a close fit plus sized block. At 12%, this block making tool will suit swimwear and all activewear applications for spandex/lycra weights around 160-210gsm. It will not be appropriate for reversible swimwear as that literally doubles the fabric weight.
If you need a block/sloper to design custom fit plus sized swimwear patterns of all styles then this is it. You can use it with the existing tutorials on my website and those coming soon specifically with plus size in mind.
It comes in ...
- 17 half increment sizes as usual
- Underbust 82cm to 144cm
- Bust/Underbust difference up to 25.5cm
- Hips 101cm to 137cm
- up to 25 degrees of pelvic tilt variation
- up to 10 degrees of shoulder tilt
- sway back from 0 to 8cm
- built in guides for varying waist
- built guides for varying crotch width
- built in guides for bubble butt (extra length)
- complete with instructions on how to use the tool
These blocks have matching leggings blocks, but as yet no sleeve blocks ... those should be available in the near future.
This base block/sloper set contains 17 individual sizes in 2cm increments, one size per page ...
- Under Bust: 82cm-144cm
- Bust to Under Bust difference up to 25.5cm
- Full Hips: 101-137cm
