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.

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

Our patterns are drafted for a B cup and a height of 5ft 6 (170cm). All of our patterns contain lengthen and shorten lines.

We will be increasing the London range to include sizes 22-26. All future Seasons of East patterns will be available in sizes 8-26.

All Seasons of East patterns are available in both paper and PDF format.

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

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 send all of our orders via Royal Mail First Class if you are based in the UK or Royal Mail International Standard if you are based outside of the UK. We aim to despatch all orders within 1-3 working days. Please see our shipping and returns section for further information.

Your pattern will arrive in a gorgeous eco friendly cotton bag featuring our brand city skyline (which could be re-used or repurposed once you have finished your sewing pattern). In the bag you will find 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. The file can be dowloaded a maximum of three times.

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.
