About Fashion Patterns by Coni

Fashion Patterns by Coni is an independent pattern company featuring couture draped patterns with TRUE-TO-THE-BODY fit for sizes XS to 6X! These patterns are multi-sized, so you get five Misses’ size -- XS, S, M, L, XL -- in one envelope, and seven Women’s sizes -- XXL, 1X, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X, 6X -- in one envelope. The goal is to unlock the mystery of fit and make your sewing experience successful, painless, and fun!

Beginning in 2007,
Connie is also a featured designer for Butterick.
We will continue to maintain our business as an independent company, but you will also be able to purchase some of our designs through Butterick at retail stores throughout the country!

ONLY CUSTOM FITTING WILL DO

All patterns are developed on live models (size 10 for smaller figures and size 2X for larger figures). When creating patterns on live models, the patterns are able to add fullness in the bust, waist and hip, and, at the same time, the shoulders and neck remain the same as smaller figures. This also allows the patterns to be developed on the principles of balance and proportion so that they are flattering for all women whether they are a size XS or 6X.

This pattern collection is a fabulous array of design options including blouses, shirts, tees, skirts, pants, jackets and dresses. There’s something for every taste and figure type. And they all come in ready-to-wear size range. In other words, sizes are designated by Small, Medium, Large, XL, 1X, etc. with the corresponding retail size. Or you can use your EXACT measurements -- just have a look at our size chart on the last page.
