Pattern companies use a
"standard" set of measurements for each pattern they make.
As a result there is very little to choose from for plus size children.
In order for the growing plus size or odd size child to have an
opportunity to dress in the current fashions, alterations to the store
bought pattern are a necessity.
The problem I've
heard over and over again is "where do I start when trying to alter
commercial "store bought" patterns?" "I
thought my plus size child just had an extra large tummy, so when I tried
to alter the pattern for that, I found that the shoulders were way too
big, the sleeves too long, and the neck too big. HELP!!"
Regardless of what size
pattern you buy for the plus size child, there may be one, two, or
multiple changes that must be made. In order to get a
good fit, it is necessary to adjust the pattern dimensions to your child's
figure dimensions. The "Altering Store Bought Patterns for Plus
Size Boys and Girls" class begins with teaching you HOW to take the
measurements for the boys and girls, then how to compare each of the
pattern measurements to the child's REAL measurements, and then walks you
through the process of how to do the actual pattern adjustments.
This 70 page

alteration process, and this step by step instruction class will guide you
from beginning to end. Never have to guess again, or use the
"cross your fingers and hope it fits" type of alteration method.
