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!

Very simple make. I'm happy with the first try. Definitely going to make more, but improve some of the steps.

Have not tried it yet. But the pattern was delivered faster than I expected. I will write another review after I use it.

Exactly as described. PDF contains everything needed to print and make fabulous berets. Printed and made my first one within 2 hours of purchase. Brilliant pattern.

Still haven't made yet but it was simple to download and print!

Speedy download and an excellent pattern. Easy-to-follow instructions and clear print quality on the files. Can't wait to get stuck into making these!! Highly recommend VintagePatternsSewBI!
