Pattern cut

Describe a garment or bring a tech pack, a sketch or a photo. Pattern cut drafts every piece, grades every size, nests the marker to your cloth and writes the files your cutting room runs.

What Pattern cut can take on

Pattern cut reads your garment the way a pattern maker does. Every piece is drafted with its seam allowance, notches and grain, every size is graded, every fused part gets its interlining, and the marker is nested to your cloth — so the first sample sews up as the garment you described.

DXF + grading rulesmarkercutter file

Every piece, ready to cut

Seam allowances, notches, grain lines, drill holes and labels on every piece — and interlining, lining and facing pieces drafted with the shell.

Every size graded

Pieces graded across the size range for women, men, girls and boys, with grading rules your pattern room can read.

Markers that save cloth

Pieces nested to your cloth width — one-way or two-way, folded or open, stripes and checks matched — for one size or a size ratio.

From any starting point

A tech pack, a photo, a flat sketch, a size chart, or your own pattern file and grading rules — 160 garments across 19 groups.

What’s in every cut file

Every cut order is one bundle: the files the cutting room runs, and everything it needs to sew and check the first sample before the bulk.
