I wanted some arms for my ladies, so I took a quick look online as I intended to buy a pair! When I saw the price of ready made arms I changed my mind!
I have lots of calico and the ability to make the pattern myself, so I went ahead and made a pattern. Several pairs later, I decided to make a pattern sheet – see the link at the bottom of the page for the pattern sheet on its own or the complete kit that includes all the calico you need – at a fraction of the price they are to buy ready made.
The instruction booklet provides you with detailed step by step making instructions…
Buy the complete kit with all the supplies you need, or just the pattern sheet on its own.

Why not give them a try, I also converted the traditional triangular section used to pin the arms to the stand into a more substantial elasticated harness. I will pop the additional pattern pieces in the members area for anyone that want to make them!
As always, I would love to see the arms you make! I think my next pair may be in a pretty fabric!
