Heritage Patterns originated in 1985. Designers Diana Forstey and Elsie Kawulych were active in the Vegreville Ukrainian School of Dancing and other Ukrainian groups and felt thee was a need for these patterns. With research through the University of Alberta and other sources, as well as training, they drafted these patterns, which took months of work. They sewed every garment to observe the style and fit before going into final stage of production and selling the patterns.
