Drafted for a standard size (EU 38, or the nearest children's size). Yours is drafted to your own measurements. The photos are example pictures made for this page; the patterns are what Sewly drafted from them, unedited.
Two ways to start
Start from a tested model, or sew what you see
Most patterns start from one of Sewly's tested garments, changed to suit you. When you want a piece the catalogue does not make, the AI pattern maker drafts it from scratch.
Every plan, free included
Start from a tested model
Pick one of 36 garments tested on real bodies and make it yours: length, neckline, sleeves, fullness and pockets, drafted to your measurements. Change it by hand, or ask in a few words.
- 36 tested garments, 6 easy models free to print
- Small changes in words: “make it midi”, “add pockets”
- 3D preview on a form with your measurements

Sew what you see
Show Sewly a photo, a Pinterest pin, an Instagram post or a few words. Its AI pattern maker drafts that exact piece, piece by piece, to your measurements, even when it is nothing like the catalogue.
- Jumpsuits, capes, toys, bags, coats for your dog…
- Every seam checked on three sizes, then reviewed
- A new pattern: make a toile first
How the AI pattern maker drafts a new design
- 1
It reads the piece
From your photo, link or words it works out the silhouette, the seams, the closures and the details, with sizes estimated from the body in the picture.
- 2
It drafts every piece
On bodice, sleeve, skirt and trouser blocks drafted to your measurements, or from the object's own sizes: facings, linings, pockets and straps included.
- 3
It checks, then a second one reviews
Seams must match their partners on three sizes, notches line up, and the garment has to go on. A second pattern maker reviews the draft before you see it.
What to expect
- Tested models are the most reliable: they have been sewn and checked on real bodies.
- A new design is a first draft by a pattern maker: make a toile in cheap fabric before you cut the good one.
- Structured tailoring, underwired bras and boned corsetry may need adjusting by hand.
- You can change any pattern afterwards, by hand or in words, and print it at true scale.
