Yes, seam allowances  are included in all Seasons of East patterns. Our seam allowance is usually 1.5cm and will always be clearly stated in our instructions.

Yes we do. We want to be able to share our patterns with you wherever you are in the world. Please see our Shipping & Returns section for further information. 

Our London range is currently available in UK sizes 8 - 20 and our New York range in UK sizes 8 - 26.

All Seasons of East patterns are available in both printed and PDF formats.

Seasons of East patterns cater for a range of abilities from beginner to experienced so whether you are just starting out on your sewing journey or you are already in possession  of an entire wardrobe full of home sewn garments, we will have a pattern for you.

If you have purchased a PDF pattern, you will receive your order straight away. As soon as payment has been confirmed you will be sent an email containing a link for you to download which will contain your pattern and instructions. If you have ordered a printed pattern how long it takes to receive this will depend on where you are in the world. We aim to despatch all orders within 1-3 working days. Please see our Shipping & Returns section for further information.

Absolutely. We would love as many people as possible to fall in love with sewing and be able to make their own clothes. We do ask that a pattern is purchased for each member of the class.

Unfortunately not. Our patterns are designed for the home sewing community and are for personal rather than commercial use. We hope you will love your hand made garment but if for any reason you no longer want your garment, please consider gifting or donating it to a charity shop or upcycling the fabric for another project or purpose.

Your pattern will arrive in an eco friendly cotton bag (which could be re-used or repurposed once you have finished your sewing pattern) and will contain a full size pattern printed on quality PEFC certified paper and an instruction booklet printed on recycled paper containing step by step instructions and accompanying photographs.

Once you have received the link there will be three files for you to download. The first file will be a tiled format of the pattern which can be printed at home on A4 or US letter paper. Once printed you will need to stick all of the sheets together by matching the corresponding letters and numbers. Once complete you will have a full scale pattern ready to cut out. If you would rather not do this yourself you will also receive an A0 size file of the pattern which is usually across two pages and which can be sent to a copy shop to be printed instead. Finally you will receive an instruction booklet containing all the information you will need to make your pattern including a size chart and step by step instructions with accompanying photographs.

We aim to launch our patterns to coincide with the season to which they relate. All of our new releases will be advertised via our newsletter, website and Instagram.
