SIZE CHART
FIND YOUR SIZE
Take your measurements and compare them to our size chart to see which size to print.
How to pick the right size for your sewing project?
1. Measure yourself or the body of the person you are going to sew for and write down the measurements.
2. For shirts, tops and dresses look at the bust circumference, for bottoms look at the hip circumference. Which size does your measurements fit the most? That's the size you need to print out. If you're sewing a fitted design, consider adjusting the waist circumference to your measured size on the pattern.
3. If you fall in between sizes, choose the larger size and adjust the pattern if desired. We recommend making a trial version first, so you can evaluate how many adjustments the garment needs.
WOMEN
How to determine your cup size:
1. Measure your upper bust circumference passing your back under your armpits above your bust at the narrowest possible part. Compare to the measurements in the table to see which size you should take. Take this size to print or trace.
2. Measure your full bust circumference across the widest part of your bust. Go down the column of the size you determined in step 1 until you find a measurement close to your full bust measurement.
TIP!
Measure yourself in a comfortable, well-fitting bra (without padding, unless that's what you always wear) for the most accurate measurements. When in doubt, take the larger size.

Variations
The Dila pattern offers a delightful mix of creative sewing techniques and elegant design details that make it a rewarding project for makers. With its signature pleated sleeves, back slit with button closure, and refined shaping, Dila delivers both sewing enjoyment and stunning results.
Main Features
Make it as a dress or blouse, with three different lengths: blouse, short dress, or long dress
Choose between a long lantern sleeve with decorative pleats, a short sleeve with one pleat, or a sleeveless version
Three neckline options: round, square, or V-neck

With its balance of refined details and versatility, Dila is a customer favorite for sewists who love stylish projects with personality.
Level
Intermediate to advanced (depending on the chosen variant).
With Dila, makers will learn key sewing techniques such as making gathers, applying bias tape, creating a back slit with button closure, and setting in sleeves.
More experienced sewists will enjoy the added challenge of stitching the pleats and shaping the elegant lantern sleeve.
Fit
Dila strategically alternates between roomy and accommodating. There is plenty of ease at the bust, waist and hips, while at the same time we ensured a sophisticated silhouette by leaving the shoulder points in the right place and using a lantern sleeve to bring the wide long sleeves down to an elegant wrist cuff.
The long sleeves are meant to fall on the wrist.
The short sleeve has a wide sleeve hem with a decorative pleat.
On the sleeveless version, the armhole is sufficiently roomy.
Fabric choice
Light to medium-weight fabrics that gather well
Poplin cotton, linen, or thin wool for structured sleeves
Viscose or other supple fabrics for a softer, draped effect
Avoid thick or stiff fabrics
