General Frequently Asked Questions

Can I order a paper pattern from you?
Hopefully, very soon. I am currently sourcing a UK printer to print our patterns on paper. But don't worry the patterns will still be available for dowload by those who would rather have them in that format. We hope to keep the pricing competitive, so keep an eye on the home page for new paper pattern updates!

How much do you charge for shipping?
All e-patterns are free shipping, as these are delivered to you as a digital download minutes after completing the checkout.

E-patterns that you wish to have delivered on a CD will incur an extra £2 to cover the cost of delivery and manufacture. You can buy these from our ebay shop http://shop.ebay.co.uk/merchants/lauramarshdesigns, they are currently not available for purchase on the website. (Please note that for overseas sales there is an extra charge for postage)


What payment methods will you accept?
At the present time we are able to accept payments using PayPal. This service is free for you to use, and you will able to use your credit or debit card through them. Simply add you items to the shopping cart, and when you checkout, you will be redirected to the PayPal website to checkout via a secure server, and return to our site to complete the transaction.

If you do not wish to create a PayPal account, PayPal will let you enter your card details as a one off transaction if you do not have an account.

I don't accept personal cheques or postal orders.

How long will it take for me to receive the pattern?
Once you've completed the checkout you'll automatically have the links ready for download on the completion page. If you don't see them there make sure you check your "My Account" area of the website, your links should be there waiting for you.

Do you make patterns for children's clothing?
Yes, although only in small numbers, I hope to enlarge the children's clothing ranges soon.

Do you make patterns for men's clothing?
Yes, although like the children's clothing, this is still only in small numbers.

Will you make a custom pattern just for me?
Generally the answer would be no, as I don't have the time. In some cases I do make expections, such as adding the finished design to my collection rather than for one off use. If you're happy to release the design then I'll gladly look into creating a pattern for it, for more information please email sales@lauramarshdesigns.co.uk. Remember to include any images, any copyright information and any ofther information relevant to the design. Please note that creating a pattern is not a quick process and I do reserve the right to refuse any custom work based on the work load at the time of request.

Will you make a dress for me based on one of your patterns?
I don't sew the garments from the patterns for re-sale nor do I take orders, this is simply down to a time requirement. Many seamstresses and tailors would love your business and you can usually find them through word of mouth or the Yellow Pages. Although please make sure they're happy to work with a digital pattern before you buy it, as many tailors will often prefer to work though different methods.

What are your standard sizes?
Please see the dress size chart for the standard British dress size. Please note, other Countries have different comparable sizes. I will only work to British sizes.

Are your patterns Copyrighted?
Yes. All of the patterns, images, and written material on this website are copyright Laura Marsh. Please note that as I am based in the UK, patterns, images and written material come under UK copyright law. Which means once something is created it automatically holds a copyright, there is no need to register, and should any other person wish to use any of the copyrighted material they are required to seek the permission of the copyright holder.

For all other copyright purposes, the material presented on this site has also been logged with www.myfreecopyright.com, which provides a digital reference point for all the material on this site.

Can I sell the items I make from your patterns?
I ask kindly that you do not use the patterns for mass manufacturing purposes. As the bargain price of the patterns is aimed at the home sewist/crafting market and are for personal use only. If you should wish to use these patterns for profit please contact me first to arrange a licensing agreement and the additional cost incurred.
