• Incorporate flattering, not fitted style lines into our designs
• Creating absolutely unique designs by never duplicating styles from commercial pattern companies
• Offer feminine styles with interesting details
• Never sacrifice practicality and comfort for style

Many of our patterns are inspired by historical clothing, but you won't find fussy, tightly fitted, old-fashioned designs here!  We take the best of the historical design details and incorporate them into practical clothing that fits your lifestyle today. Click below for:

	Unique and easy-to-make vest patterns.
	Casual and dressy shirts and tunics.
	Smart jumpers that are sophisticated, not schoolgirlish!
	Choose a great casual jacket or an elegant evening wrap (that can also be a dress, tunic, or robe!).
	Casual and feminine, these skirts are comfortable and easy to wear!

All Encore Designs patterns are multi-sized, XS-XL, XS-XXL, or 6-24.  We use standard commercial pattern company measurement charts.
