JSM Tailoring Tools & Teaching, formerly JSM Patterns, offers innovative tools to aide the garment sewing and design process.

Tools include a finely-crafted tabletop pressing board (especially designed for pressing pants), hard-to-find sewing notions, a pants pattern, a book on pants design and a folder for organizing pants design projects. For the new or experienced entreprenuer, there is the JSM Hourly Rate Calculator and for those specializing in garment alterations, a customizable pricing system called Pricing Alterations Made Easier. For more information on these tools or to place an order, see our Products page.

A new tool on the horizon is the publication of the entire system for fitting pants and custom grading pants patterns invented by Joyce Simons Murphy entitled JSM TAILORING TOOLS — PANTS FOR WOMEN. The system includes a well-illustrated, detailed, step-by-step fitting manual, an Excel spreadsheet for developing the grading plan and instructions for drafting the custom pattern from the grading plan. Click Please Notify Me to send an e-mail requesting notification when the system is ready. Type "Pants for Women" in the subject line.

Instruction and personal service utilizing Joyce Simons Murphy's methods for fitting pants and custom grading patterns is also available.
