July 2021 PDF Pattern Shop OPEN
Enjoy Couleure's patterns in PDF format, printable at home on A4 paper.
Couleure's PDF patterns are professional apparel patterns that lead to beautifully constructed items. They are designed and created in Japan since 2001.
The pattern has seam lines(sewing lines) indicated, and detailed seam allowances are also indicated. The seam allowances are what make apparel quality patterns special. They create well-constructed garments.
The patterns come in two sizes. They are not layered, which means there is no need to trace and add seam allowances, just print, assemble and cut to use. As the seam lines are indicated, this helps when you want to make alterations.
The instructions come in English and Japanese with clear diagrams.
It may be a new experience using a pattern from a different country. However, the patterns offer a good result, so please feel free to construct it in your preferred method.
Couleure's patterns are unique and made with the highest skills. We hope you enjoy these patterns that are fun to sew, and enjoyable to wear.
We always advise checking the size chart and measuring the pattern pieces before cutting your fashion fabric. If the size does not fit, you can change it for free. Please feel free to contact us about the size (^^♪

5 out of 5 starsAll good! I just wish there was a better way for the seller to explain the sizes of these patterns. I’m always guessing that a size 13 or 11 is going to be big enough for what I need. Is there a spec page that explains the measurements for each finished size in garment form? Please advise if it’s available.
Couleure responded on Jan 20, 2023
Thank you, Parron-san, for your review and highlighting this. We have now added the size chart which we must have missed when updating the additional size range. Each product should have an image of the 'Finished Garment Size Chart' in one of the photographs. We would also be very happy to be of assistance when choosing the right size. Once again, thank you for letting us know. We are glad that it went well!

5 out of 5 starsThis pattern is easy to follow and suitable for a beginner. It makes an enjoyable weekend project. I added pockets and cuffs to the sleeves, along with an inner tie to wrap it closed if desired. These were all simple customizations to work into the pattern. This is my second pattern from Couleure and I would buy from this pattern maker again.

5 out of 5 starsVery clear instructions and really awesome shirt. It is also extremely versatile as it looks really different and cool with materials of different drape. Made the first one in linen and will make 2 wool shirts next. Oddly easy to make (or I am just unexpectedly proficient in sewing :D :D), I remember making collared shirts used to take lot more effort ...

5 out of 5 starsI am stocking up on patterns for the long winter evenings...I look at the instructions to see how the garment is constructed, I also look at the PDF pages. I leisurely select the fabric that will fit.. This pattern seems to meet my desire for comfortable, simple and stylish patterns. P.S. The seller responds quickly to requests.

5 out of 5 starsThis pattern is easy to follow and can be completed in a weekend. It's suitable for a beginner. I do not have an overlocking serger and used a zigzag stitch, which worked fine. I'm a US size 2/4 and made the Small; it fits well. This pattern is easy to adjust for your height. I am 5'11 and easily extended the arms, body and collar several inches to fit. I highly recommend this pattern! Great quality instructions.
