anybody know where I can get some free plus size patterns?
Im plus size and I want to make my own clothing. I see all these FREE patterns online but never see any for the big girls. Any body know of any cool websites or tutorials that can help me out.
I saw a tutorial for shrinking/enlarging patterns you could try that I almost did it but I didn't have the supplies on hand and my pattern had many components
Have you checked BurdaStyle? If not, that should be your first stop.
Other than that, the best place to start is on a search engine or to make your own patterns based on clothes you have that fit you comfortably.
