sloper blocks

I had a chuckle when I read your response. I had thought that Ursula's question was about using a sloper for an individual so I would have answered "yes" to her question

You took it as being about factory produced clothes and thus the answer is a nope. I'm now wondering what Ursula had in mind when she asked the question given that the answers are diametrically opposed depending on what she had in mind when she asked. :-))

The rest of your post sorts it out though.

My blocks are custom blocks because I have some fitting peculiarities

Thank you Farm1,

Not sure if I want to be bothered with the Gladwrap idea. Heard of it before and sounds a bit too complicated (for me anyway).

and Joy,

I have just joined Don's Yahoo group too, thanks to the link in this wonderful newsgroup :-) May try to find the book.
