    Are you talking about stitch length? Most sewing machines have a knob or button to adjust the length of each stitch. Be sure to work through your sewing machine manual carefully -- it'll save you a lot of frustration.

    Or are you talking about small/medium/large patterns? That's a subject called "pattern grading", and you do it by calculating the change at many different pattern points from grade rules you've determined ahead of time. That's over your pay grade right now. http://fashion-incubator.com/archive/how_to_create...
