This will be a quick lesson on drafting a custom sleeve sloper to compliment your bodice sloper pattern. We'll be using Adobe Illustrator as a drafting tool and you will be able to print your finished pattern at home or with a copyshop using the same PDF formatting techniques covered in the Bodice Sloper class.

Simply put, a sloper is a very basic, close-fitting garment without any design details that is constructed to your exact measurements.

A sloper can be used primarily in two ways:

1. To evaluate the fit of existing patterns by comparing them to your custom sloper to identify potential fit alterations.


2. As a base pattern--or block--for designing your own sewing patterns.

A sloper is another tool in your garment sewing and designing toolbox (and is not a necessarily a finished garment).

With your finished sleeve and bodice, you can start manipulating your sloper pattern in Adobe Illustrator to create an endless collection of custom designs for tops and dresses. You can also check out my blog series on creating custom patterns from a sloper on my website, patternscoutstudio.com.
