I’m looking for an experienced PDF sewing pattern maker for a long-term collaboration with my independent women’s sewing pattern brand. I currently create and sell my own digital sewing patterns, but I’m looking for a reliable freelancer who can help me increase the number of new patterns I release. I will provide the garment design, reference images, size chart, construction requirements, desired fit, and examples of my existing patterns. For each project, I’m ideally looking for someone who can handle the complete technical process: - Create or digitize the sewing pattern - Grade it across the required size range - Add seam allowances, notches, grainlines and pattern markings - Check and true all pattern pieces - Prepare layered A4, US Letter and A0 PDF files - Prepare a projector-friendly version - Calculate fabric requirements and finished garment measurements - Create clear step-by-step sewing instructions - Create clean technical sewing illustrations - Make corrections after I test-sew the pattern - Deliver the final customer-ready digital pattern package The patterns will mainly be women’s clothing designed for beginner-to-intermediate home sewists. Strong knowledge of real garment construction and pattern making is very important. I’m not looking for someone who only knows how to trace or format patterns. We will start with ONE PAID TEST PROJECT using a relatively simple garment. If the quality, communication and workflow are good, I’m looking for a long-term collaboration with regular new pattern projects. Please include in your proposal: 1. Examples of sewing patterns you have personally created 2. Examples of sewing instruction illustrations 3. The software you use for pattern making and illustration 4. Your experience with pattern grading 5. Which parts of the workflow above you can complete independently 6. Your price for one complete SIMPLE pattern 7. Your price for a MEDIUM-COMPLEXITY pattern 8. Your typical turnaround time Please start your proposal with the word PATTERN so I know you have read the full description. I am interested in finding the right long-term collaborator, so please quote your normal rate rather than adjusting your price to match a suggested budget.
