Custom Fitted T-Shirt Pattern Drafting Tutorial

This is how I sew fitted T-shirts that actually fit—without buying new patterns each time. I draft a custom bodice and sleeve block once, then reuse it to make endless jersey tops with different necklines, sleeve lengths, and fabrics.

If you want a slow-fashion approach to sewing everyday clothes that fit your body, this step-by-step tutorial walks you through turning a block into a wearable fitted T-shirt.

A vertical monitor displays 'HOW I USE MY VERTICAL MONITOR' text with a white bunny plushie at the bottom. The screen has a dark, lacy background, framed by pink flower doodles. 'lemon8 @brattycakess' is at the bottom left.
The vertical monitor shows a music streaming application with daily mixes, recommended stations, and artists. A vinyl record graphic is overlaid, and a small record player is visible on the physical monitor. 'Music' is written vertically on the right.
The vertical monitor displays a manga page with multiple panels of characters and dialogue. Physical manga volumes are stacked next to the monitor. 'Manga' is written vertically on the right side of the image.

Everyone always asks me the point of this and honestly it can do whatever the other one can do. The only difference is the ratio. HOWEVER, a lot of websites accommodate for a vertical display, especially Tumblr and TikTok! #PC #setupinspo #setup #lemon8creator #gaming
