01How it works

From a sentence to a pattern you can cut out

No drafting rulers, no grading between sizes, and no guessing how much fabric to buy.

  1. Step 1

    Describe it

    Say what you want in everyday words, or pick a garment and choose the options yourself. Your words become a design you can still adjust.

    Tote bagLinedInside pocket
  2. Step 2

    Make it fit

    Choose one of 20 standard sizes or type in your own measurements. The pattern is drafted from those numbers, not scaled from a block.

    Waist74 cm
    Hip98 cm
  3. Step 3

    Print and sew

    Download the PDF, tape the pages together, cut along the layout and follow the steps one at a time.

02What's in a pattern

Everything a printed pattern has, drafted for one body

Each design comes with the pieces, the layout, the shopping list and the steps, worked out from your measurements.

Drafted to your measurements

Start from a standard size, women's XS to 3XL, men's S to 3XL or kids' 2 to 14, then change any of 15 body measurements. Every piece is redrafted from those numbers, in centimetres or inches.

  • Seam and hem allowances included
  • Notches, darts, grainlines and fold lines marked
  • Each piece labelled with what to cut, and how many

Know exactly how much fabric to buy

The pieces are packed onto your fabric width the way you will cut them, folded or in a single layer, so the amount to buy comes from the real layout rather than a size chart.

What is AI Sewing?

AI Sewing is an online sewing pattern generator. You describe a garment in plain words, or pick one and choose its options, and it drafts a true-to-scale pattern from your body measurements, with a cutting layout, fabric amounts, a notions list and step-by-step instructions you can print at home.

How do I make a sewing pattern from my own measurements?

Open the studio and describe what you want to make. Choose the closest standard size, then change any measurement that differs, such as bust, waist, hip, height or arm length. The pattern redrafts straight away. Download the PDF and print it at 100% scale.

Does AI draw the pattern?

No. AI is only used to understand your request and turn it into a design: the garment, its options and any sizes you mention. The pattern pieces are drafted by a precise geometry engine using standard pattern-making methods, and every seam is checked, so the result is accurate and repeatable.

Do I need pattern-making experience?

No. Each pattern is rated for difficulty, from Beginner to Intermediate, and comes with step-by-step instructions written for its pieces, so you know what you are taking on before you cut.

Which sizes are included?

20 standard sizes: women's XS to 3XL, men's S to 3XL and kids' ages 2 to 14. You can also enter your own measurements in centimetres or inches.

What can I make?

Skirts, T-shirts and tops, dresses, pants and shorts, tote bags, cushion covers and aprons, each with options for shape, length, neckline, sleeves, pockets and more. Jackets, coats, lingerie and tailored garments are not supported yet.

How do I print a PDF sewing pattern at home?

Download the A4 or US Letter PDF and print it at 100% (actual size). Measure the test square to check the scale, then trim and tape the pages together using the page grid. For a copy shop, download the single A0 sheet. There is also a 1:1 SVG file for projectors.

How much fabric do I need?

Each pattern lays its pieces out on your fabric width, folded or in a single layer, and gives the amount to buy in metres and yards, rounded up. You also get the thread, zip, elastic and other notions the design needs.

Can I make clothes for children?

Yes. Kids' sizes run from age 2 to 14, drafted from children's measurements, and necklines are checked so they go over a child's head.

Can I change a design after it is drafted?

Yes. Ask for changes in plain words, such as "make it midi length with long sleeves", or edit the options directly. The pattern is redrafted in the same size.

Where is my work saved?

Your current design and measurements are saved in your browser, so they are there when you come back, and no account is needed. When AI design is on, the request you type, the current design and your chosen standard size are sent to Anthropic's Claude to interpret it. Custom measurements stay in your browser.
