Key benefits Speeds up pattern work: provides ready curve shapes and straight edges so sample making, grading and pattern drafting take less time. Improves accuracy: consistent curves and straight lines reduce measuring errors when drawing, cutting, or transferring patterns to fabric. Versatile sewing tool: combines multiple clothing curves (collar, pocket, buttonhole, etc.) and straight rulers in one instrument, replacing several separate templates. What it does Draws precise straight lines and smooth curves for pattern pieces, seams and hems. Supports grading and sample making with repeatable shapes and edge guides. Includes a variety of clothing curve profiles for collars, pockets, buttonholes and other garment details. Who it's for (compatibility) Tailors, dressmakers, pattern makers, fashion students and home sewers who draft or alter garments. Suitable for use on paper patterns, pattern board/plate work and directly on fabric during layout and cutting. Key attributes Multifunction: straight ruler, curved templates and specialized garment curve guides in one tool. Applicationready: designed for drawing, cutting, pattern plating and other clothing design tasks. Practical and compact: combines commonly needed curves and straight edges to reduce tool changes during work. Performance benefits Faster pattern drafting and grading through integrated curve templates. Cleaner, professionallooking seams and details thanks to consistent curve geometry. Reduces waste and rework by helping you lay out and cut fabric more accurately. Use scenarios 1) Pattern drafting: Use the straight edge for baseline measurements, then select the appropriate curve for collars or pocket openings to create a consistent pattern piece for sample making and grading. 2) Garment alteration: Lay the ruler on existing garments or patterns to redraw buttonholes or pocket lines with accurate curves, then transfer the adjusted lines to fabric for cutting. 3) Cutting and plating: Place the ruler on the pattern board or fabric to guide rotary cutting or scissors, ensuring straight seam allowances and smooth curved edges for collars and armholes. Why choose this dressmaker ruler Consolidates multiple specialized shapes into a single sewing ruler, reducing clutter and speeding repetitive drafting tasks. Designed specifically for clothing design uses—drawing, cutting, grading and plate work—so it fits the workflow of sewing and pattern making. Ideal for both professional and hobby sewing environments where dependable, repeatable curves and straight lines are essential.
