All new: Plus Size Focus

There's now a page on the Sure-Fit Designs web site for the Plus Size figure and fitting with the SFD pattern kits. I encourage you to send photos of your projects as others want to see your successes. For many, it's the first time you've ever really had garments that fit your frame. This page is evolving. This new video series will continue - just let me know what you'd like to see. Email Glenda

Accessing & Watching the Videos
It's generally best to initially access the SFD videos from the website - surefitdesigns.com. You can watch the video directly from the site, but the image will be quite small. Or, if you double-click in the center of the video, it will open up the larger video directly on YouTube.

Enjoy!!

A Customer Comment...

My first project was a blouse for my aunt. I took her measurements and started with the Dress Kit. I had no problems with the drawing of the patterns thanks to your very good book instructions and How-To DVD. Since the sleeve was quite fitted (my aunt prefers a looser fit), I decided to go with the Shirt Kit. This pattern is even easier to draw, so it was finished very quickly. I added princess lines to the shirt, cut and sewed it up. Yesterday my aunt tried it on - and it fitted perfectly!

...So, as you can see, the SFD system works very well. Thank you for all the work you have put in the SFD system and for all your wonderful videos. They are very helpful.

Kindly.
