Bent body Block

bent is a block, not a pattern

A block is a basic shape on which other patterns are based. They are sometimes also called slopers, although purists will argue that a block and a sloper are different things.

Blocks are typically not made as-is but rather serve as a basis for other patterns.

New Bent pattern

Designer notes

I Designed Bent because I wanted to make Jaeger and back then, FreeSewing had no foundation block with a 2-part sleeve that’s used in jackets and coats.

So Bent is essentially Brian with a 2-part sleeve – in other words, it has an undersleeve part and a topsleeve part – and that’s about it.

Since designing Bent, it has become the foundation for all our coat and jacket designs.
