It is the perfect fitting skirt!" This is when I decided to help others who have the same desire!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was in NYC recently and I met a receptionist who was the sweetest person. She asked me what I did for a living. I explained to her that I was a pattern maker and owned a small design studio. We create patterns and sew samples for fashion designers. I mentioned to her that I  help designers get started in the fashion industry by producing and selling their collections.&lt;br /&gt;She then asked me "Do you know any designers that could help me?"&lt;br /&gt;I asked her in what way?&lt;br /&gt;She said "I have a skirt that fits me perfectly. The style is chic and classic. I bought this skirt a few years ago and I'd like to make this skirt in several colors and different fabrics. It is the perfect skirt for Church. I need someone who can copy the style. Do you know where I can get my skirt copied?"&lt;br /&gt;I smiled and said, "I would be happy to copy that pattern for you". And so this sparked my imagination.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is not the first time that people have asked me to do this. My mother use to ask me to copy her blouses, suits and pants all the time. Over the years my friends have made the same request. People on My Space have approached  me asking for help recreating that perfect style. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I met is a group of very tall sisters, (over 6 feet), who are in great need of clothing. I also met petite woman, moms with tweens in need of dresses, women with unique body types. You name it I've met them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;So my question is to all of you ladies out there: Does anyone else have this problem?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do any of you have that perfect fitting skirt, pants, dress, or blouse and can't find that style anywhere, anymore? Did you see a style in a magazine or catalog and would like it for yourself, but you need to have it custom made because standard fit is not standard you?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you sew? Or have access to a seamstress? If you had this pattern who would sew it for you?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What can I do? I really want to help these women, but...How do I find these woman so I can help them? I think this is a big problem here in America. Am I right?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please write me and tell me your clothing problems. I really want to hear about them and maybe I can help!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;HAPPY FITTINGS!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6115887390180260469-223337139498456866?l=havepatternswithperfectfit.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://havepatternswithperfectfit.blogspot.com/feeds/223337139498456866/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6115887390180260469&amp;postID=223337139498456866' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6115887390180260469/posts/default/223337139498456866'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6115887390180260469/posts/default/223337139498456866'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://havepatternswithperfectfit.blogspot.com/2008/07/imagineering-styles-answer-to-perfect.html' title='Imagineering Style&apos;s answer to The Perfect Fitting Skirt'/><author><name>HavePatternsWithPerfectFit</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06081606076420158085</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
