Need your pattern pieces made in a range of sizes? I can size grade your lingerie and swimwear pattern pieces for your garment, allowing your manufacturer to produce a selection of sizes from your design.
Yelena helped me with some of the computer and grading related aspects of one of my PDF patterns.
Annie & Myras – Lingerie Sewing Pattern Brand
Yelena was so very easily able to transform my vision, and helped me feel completely confident throughout all aspects of the process. She was informative, very knowledgeable, and at all times professional and kind.
By providing guidelines and timeframes for the work, I felt comforted that my vision would be achieved, and re-assured by the time frames that were provided...The experience with Yelena was smooth and I am hoping I will be able to work with her again in the future should her time permit.
