The Shirt Factory offers ideas guaranteed to push your sewing creativity button into overdrive. Our unique approach to pattern making will never scare the "big guys" in the pattern world, because we rely on them to furnish the basic canvas for our unique, add-on, accessory patterns. We accept the challenge of reproducing the small touches found on designer originals into flat patterns, placing emphasis on creating one-of-a-kind modifications, simply because that is where we reign supreme.

Through the years we have used one good fitting pattern to build a wardrobe of designer original shirts and blouses. When we spied a new idea from ready-to-wear, our pattern immediately took new form. Maybe all that was needed to copy that original was an adjustment on the front placket or perhaps a trim applied on the front shoulder yoke seam. Sew 'n' Sew's basic, "need-to-know" essentials are our very own time saving tricks that put you in control. Truthfully, they are what the sewing industry hope you never discover. Now you can quickly adjust the pattern's front placket, embellish the garment's seams, make perfect collars, yokes and sleeve plackets and eliminate hours of preparation by using our straight edge pressing templates. Yes, you can! The possibilities exist and they are EASY! Our pattern enhancers, are simply put, the small flat patterns that easily change a basic design into, "Wow, how did you do that?" looks. Because we feel the idea or pattern is more important than the package it comes in, our basic, need-to-know essentials and pattern enhancers are attractively packaged in top loading sheet protectors, suitable for storing in ring binders.

Fasten you safety belts, buckle down the hatch, it is going to be a creative ride!
