Pattern Grading

Pattern Grading begins with a base or sample-size pattern. By grading the sample-size pattern, it allows us to create various sizes to fit your sizing requirements and needs. Pattern Grading is more than simply expanding or shrinking a pattern, and involves relative changes that are based on standard or custom grade rules.

"Speaking from the perspective of a manufacturer, the patterns, grading, and sew samples from Darlene and her team are spot on. She is very responsive and deeply knowledgeable. She is key to our clients' success and our success as a manufacturer of unique and high quality sewn goods. We couldn't do it without her."
