Most new sewing patterns in Dressmaker come from friendship. Every friendship level you reach with a client adds their patterns for that level to your sketchbook for good. If a collar or sleeve you’ve seen on another player’s dress is missing from yours, find it in the client tables below and work on that friendship.
Most clients unlock their last patterns at level 4. Priya and Prudence also have a level 5 pattern.
How to Raise Friendship
Every successful commission adds a full level of friendship with that client, and a failed one adds a quarter. Every client has at least 7 commissions, so succeeding at all of them gets you every pattern by the end of the story.
Gifting gets you there sooner. Once you’ve sewn for a client at least once, you can gift them any finished dress from the photo screen as often as you like: a gift with quality above 80 adds a full level, and anything lower adds a quarter. The Commissions guide lists each client’s gift preferences.
