Create your own tailored capri pants and cropped trouser designs with this professionally drafted women’s sewing pattern block.
This digital pattern block—also known as a trouser sloper—is a professional base template designed for fashion designers, pattern makers, fashion students, dressmakers and experienced sewists. Use it as provided after adding seam allowances, or copy and manipulate the pieces to develop your own original trouser designs.
This is a pattern block, not a finished step-by-step sewing pattern. Sewing instructions, cutting instructions and seam allowances are not included.
All Basic Pattern Block products are 100% human-made—professionally drafted, tested and graded by real pattern makers, not AI-generated.
