How to Measure Your Bust

Wear a well-fitting bra.
Wrap a measuring tape around the fullest part of your bust.
Keep the tape level across your back and comfortably snug, without pulling it tight.
Record your measurement in inches or centimetres and compare it with our size chart.

For the best fit, always choose your pattern size based on your body measurements, not your usual shop size. Always check your bust measurement before ordering!

A cute pattern and pretty decent copy. I wish each tile included a proper border as that would make it easier to put together accurately.

not the kind of pattern instructions that I'm used to but still very simple and quick to make!

The patterns are truly beautiful but the instructions weren't very clear probably because they're vintage but the scan was hard to read. I figured it out though! i would buy again cause these are the exact type of patterns i love! thank you :)
