title: "Breanna body block: What You Need"
---
To make Breanna, you will need the following:
- Basic sewing supplies
- About 1.25 - 1.5 metres (1.4 - 1.7 yards) of a suitable fabric ([see Breanna Fabric options](/docs/designs/breanna/fabric/))
This list is for a default Breanna Block. If you have/are making changes to the block you may need to get additional items such as closures, binding etc.
:::note
###### Breanna is a block, not a pattern
A block is a basic shape on which other patterns are based.
They are sometimes also called slopers, although purists will argue that a block and a sloper are different things.
Blocks are typically not made as-is but rather serve as a basis for other patterns.
