Usage & Care

Usage Instructions:

Pattern Drafting (A)

  1. Trace your sloper (pattern with no seam allowance) and follow class/book instructions for pattern modification.
  2. Once the new design lines are planned, slide the ruler between the original traced line and the new marks until there is a graceful blend between the two. (A) You may need to slide the ruler more than once, marking only a small section at a time, until your new line smoothly transitions from the old one.

Altering Flat Patterns (B)

  1. Place marks on the pattern indicating the position of the new line.
  2. Slide the ruler to blend the old with the new. (B)
  3. Always mark from the stitching line and add seam allowance after the new line is complete.

Alterations (C)

  1. Fit the garment.
  2. On the wrong side of the fabric mark the pinned fit line.
  3. Follow the pattern drafting instructions above to slide the ruler from the existing stitched seam line to fit marks, until you have a new gracefully curved line. (C)

The Tool I Didn’t Know I Needed!

"I am not a sewer but I do lots of craft work and needlepoint finishing. So I am still learning about all the fun tools out there. I do tons of “free handing” curves and sometimes it is great and sometimes it is a mess. So when I saw there is a tool to help, I was elated. This thing is a LIFESAVER! I use it all the time on so many random things besides sewing. I love this ruler!"

Curve ruler

"This was my first time seeing and using a curve ruler. I am in love at how easy it has made cutting and drawing patterns for sewing. It's perfect if your making a shirt for the neck and arm holes. I like the curve of it and use my cutter often with it to cut rounded corners of my fabric."

Great Product

"Transparent curved ruler that is printed with easy to read measurements. I used it to refit a pattern & it made it easy to do. I watched a video first so that helped a lot."

Useful sewing tool!

"I've never had a curve ruler before, and now I wonder why I waited so long! I'm a weaver, and I sometimes sew my handwovens into garments. Before, I used paper and random found objects to work out the curves on necklines and collars. It felt like trying to do algebra. This curve ruler takes all the complicated guesswork out of creating my own garment patterns, which means I can get more done in a day. Awesome. You may not need it all the time, but when you do, it is indispensable."

Smrtmom (5/5)

good quality

"This is a good quality curve ruler. Measurements are accurate and easy to read with the help of red lettering. The plastic is thick enough to be good and sturdy but not bulky. Overall it does the job I need it to and it seems like it will last a long time under typical use."

Ok

"Not sure what my mother-in-law used this for but she was super happy. She was cutting and hemming a skirt when I gave it to her."

Love This Ruler

"For the first timer ever I actually had an easy time doing the neckline on a night shirt I'm making. I'm not sure why curves are a challenge for me. This time everything went smoothly for me. I seem to always need to adjust the neckline on my pattern. No worries This time. Thanks Dritz for helping to make my project easier!"
