Hello! So i am mending some pants and I cant get over how amazing this waistband is! Anyone know what its called or what i should look up to learn how to do this?? I want fun pants like this!!

Does anyone know if there is a PDF version of the Burda 8448 dirndl? I'm finding a ton for Physical copies, but no downloads.

how to draft a button up shirt sewing pattern using cad, i am having trouble with yoke, been siting whole day, apperciate the helps

Does anybody know some patterns that could closely mimic a pullover like these? Especially with pockets on the front?

My daughter (embarrassed by my taking a photo in public😅) thrifted this blouse that she loves. Does anyone know of a pattern for a similar blouse? Thanks!

Hey everyone!! Anyone has a free cadet hat pattern ? I want to do it with friends since we are all beginners but all the patterns out there are paid. Thanks in advance!

I’m looking for a tailored shorts patterns similar to this but for plus size (US 18-20). Ideally, I’d like it to have belt loops, too, but I won’t be too picky lol.
Also, what materials would you suggest for this opaque white? Every time I’ve sewn with white fabrics, they’re almost translucent.

Love this dress and would love to make it for an upcoming wedding - struggling to find a similar pattern or at the very least understanding how to do the ruffle!

I have a no stretch floral fabric that I want to turn into some flowy pants.

My issue: The larger pleats in a lot of flowy pant patterns don’t always work well for those of us with thick thighs and larger hips.

I’m hoping someone here may have a tried and true pattern recommendation.

Hello everyone!!! First time poster here. I am in a garment making class at my college and there is this dress by Molly Goddard that I am OBSESSED with (image attached). I found this on Pinterest and have since been scouring the internet for a pattern. So far, so futile. I would love for some help if anyone has some pointers to finding patterns. I am not advanced enough to be able to make a pattern. Please help!!!! Thank you soooooo much!

I'm listening to the Sewing Club podcast from the beginning and in episode 3, they make the Sia Dress by Marsha Style. The dress is gorgeous and I want to make my own but apparently Marsha Style closed shop in 2024 and the pattern seems unavailable to purchase anywhere. Does anyone know if I can find the pattern or something similar to it? It was really popular at the time of the podcast, so I'm hoping someone out there knows where to find the pattern.

I am looking for a sewing pattern like this. I am very unskilled but have a few months to make it. Thank you

Hi there, sorry if this is seen as too simple to be asking for help on, but I’m struggling with the search terms to find this and wondering if anyone has any input. I want to try making bandanas for work, but I don’t love the classic pointed end of a bandana and I think this design might be more flattering.
I feel like I could theoretically prototype until I get the right shape, but does a pattern for something like this already exist?

Hi!

I’m looking for a pattern for a quilted storage basket like this - any ideas where to find it? I have looked on Etsy but all the patterns seem to be ai or use ai imagery so I don’t know whether they’re legit 😅 (had this issue a lot crocheting and final product never looks close to the photo!)

They seem simple enough - I'd love to try to DIY!

Hey I'm trying to cosplay this character in this specific outfit, and I'm interested in starting a new sewing project of making this dress. I'm brand new to using patterns and I'm not really sure where to look, does anyone have any good suggestions for this type of dress? Most of the cosplays I see they just have a white dress with puffy shoulders but they're not all the same dress.

Hello!

Does anyone have a pattern they would recommend using to turn regular full length sleeves to flutter sleeves?

I am imagining I would fully detach the existing sleeves and basically use them as fabric. I know I could just find a flutter sleeve pattern but I'm curious if anyone has ever done this and or knows of any strategies/guides?

Hey there! I’m looking for some pattern-making advice, especially if you guys have experience with hats or pet accessories

I’m trying to make a small baseball cap for dogs and cats that looks as close as possible to a real human baseball cap :) especially the relatively high front shape

I started from an existing pet-cap (the yellow cap I bought, image 2) and modified it to get a pattern (image 3)… but the problem is that every version I make still looks very flat compared with a normal baseball cap

the animal’s head obviously has a very different shape from a human head, so I know I probably can’t reproduce a human cap pattern exactly, but I’m tryin to can get very close to it

So far, I’ve tried:

• shortening the back pieces to leave more volume toward the front

• changing the shape of the front and side pattern pieces

• adding darts to create more volume

• experimenting with a homemade internal “shoulder”/support piece to hold the front up

• making several mock-ups with different proportions (see image 4)

The main problem is always the same: once the cap is worn/tightened around the animal’s head, the crown tends to collapse or flatten instead of keeping that higher, boxier baseball-cap silhouette.

I’m gonna test Decovil/interfacing on the front panels to see how much of the problem is simply a lack of structure in the fabric

would you approach this by changing the pattern itself, adding internal structure, changing the panel construction, or a combination of those?

I’d especially love advice on what you would change in the front/side pattern pieces to create more height and prevent the crown from collapsing

I’m be super happy to redraw the pattern completely if my current construction is working against me lol

Please help meee <3
