What is a Block?
A block (sometimes referred to as a ‘sloper’) is the most basic shape to cover the body. It is important to distinguish that a block is not a pattern. While a pattern has seam allowance and design lines, a block does not. A block is used as a foundation to create a pattern. Using your own direct measurements it is precisely calculated to act a a base for all of our future patterns.
