Big Men's Patterns

I update this list at random times.

This is a list of commercially available patterns, started because I have a big-and-tall husband. If the description starts with "disc" then that pattern has been discontinued. If you wish to buy a pattern, you may buy it directly from one of the pattern companies, so click on the company name to access that company's web site.

This is just a reference list, so I do not sell these patterns.   You may search for them on the Internet.

  2. Do you have a resource for a suit coat?
    Thanks

    1. I suggest you do a web search for each of the patterns listed with the word "jacket" in it. See if any of them are actually suit coats. Check ebay and online vintage pattern sellers for one to buy.

      Delete
    2. Check on BootstrapFashions.com. They have made to measure pdf patterns that include a man's suit jacket and they are fitted for size and height. The instructions for these patterns are very minimal, so you may want to rely in instructions from another pattern.
