Pattern blocks or slopers are basic in the sewing room and it makes it really easy to create any pattern you can imagine.
The skirt one is very easy to make, you only need four measurements: your waist contour, your hip contour, the distance between your hip line snd your waistline, and the length you would like to work with.
When tracing it, it is easier if you do it in quarters in order to store it later. It is important to remember that our boy is not a square, so you have to lower the waistline one centimetre in the centre line, and raise it on the sides, so it is more flattering to the figure.
And lastly, we have to place the darts. For that, mark half way between the centre line and the side, and trace a line ten centimetres long.
With this done, and no need of a back one, we should be able to trace an cut any skirt we think of!
