Measurements

We must have correct measurements if we are to make clothing that fits well, and is comfortable. We have not always received correct measurements, so this new page is designed to help us to get correct measurements every time.
Please take all measurements accurately without stretching the tape.
Download the measurement sheet at the bottom of the page and fill it out, then either send us a copy with your order, or put the required measurements in an email for us (if ordering by email).
You may not need all the measurements for every garment, so the list below will help you ensure that you send us all necessary measurements for your garment.
Suggestion:
If you intend to regularly order from us, put all your measurements down, and we will keep the sheet on file, so we can use these measurements each time you order. (The order form does ask if we should use the measurements on file, or if you have attached new measurements)
Children who are growing will need constantly updated measurements (possibly the reason you are buying them new clothing!).
Also, if you suspect that your measurements may have changed for any reason, please complete a new measurement sheet so we can ensure your new garment fits well.
