| Know before using | The company count is a changing platform claim. Search fields, profiles, certificates, locations, and account access do not independently verify the legal entity, factory ownership, capability, capacity, certificate validity or scope, compliance performance, delivery, or project fit. Confirm the site and subcontracting, credentials with issuers, samples, audits when appropriate, specifications, contracts, and commercial terms. | Coverage is quilting-specific and uneven by country; businesses can pay for enhanced features, and community or owner updates do not verify inventory, service quality, hours, or availability. | This is a national program reference whose published program version is marked updated November 6, 2018, although Minedu still lists Patronaje in the current CNOF. It is not a current course-opening directory, enrollment offer, school recommendation, complete syllabus, teaching-quality assessment, professional license, practitioner certification, ready pattern, universal size or grading system, product-fit proof, or evidence that an individual completed the competencies. Confirm the current catalogue status, authorized institution, offered plan, admission, delivery, assessment, title, local recognition, equipment, software, safety, cost, accessibility, and product-specific pattern and fit evidence directly. | The record does not create a production grade, supply universal increments or breakpoints, validate a CAD file or fit population, reproduce licensed standards, or replace qualified anthropometric, pattern, technical-design, fit, quality, accessibility, safety, statistical, and user-research review. |

| What the source establishes | FOURSOURCE's current public network page presents an operator-reported global company count and country or territory search. It says logged-in users can narrow results by compliance certificates, product groups, fabric types, target groups, minimum order quantities, and other fields, with a free-trial and supplier sign-up route. | QuiltMap describes free public search and free basic listings, community submissions and claims, and country routes covering North America, Europe, Japan, South Korea, and Australia. | Peru's Ministry of Education currently lists Patronaje under garment manufacturing in the National Catalogue of Training Offerings, whose industry-manufacturing orientation page records a last change on June 4, 2026. The official program is code C0714-2-002 at technical level, with 80 credits and 1,760 hours. Its seven competency units cover obtaining base and graded garment patterns from a technical specification; preparing, sewing, and validating a prototype; manually or digitally laying out pattern pieces; spreading material; cutting; preparing cut pieces for production; and joining garment pieces. The connected achievement indicators name specifications, measurements, seam information, trims, finishes, base size and scale, client requirements, material optimization, cutting orders, occupational safety, and production handoff. | The guide cites current ISO body-table, size-designation, and garment-measurement boundaries plus two peer-reviewed studies that tested the relationship between conventional grade rules, anthropometric evidence, and garment fit; it requires product-specific target deltas and validation instead of publishing universal increments. |
