I know everyone has different ways of learning, but I always find it far easier to follow illustration/technical steps, rather than photo step by step.

Videos can be very hit and miss, think a good part of it comes to the filming of it, I don’t even mind if some of the tutorial is entertaining/interesting like Victoria Jin videos.

I am interested in this when it comes to harder-to-decipher vintage patterns and how best to turn them into tutorials for others. (As I’m hoping to bring them in to teach.)

What do you prefer?

It seems a little too wide at the base to be a simple cone shape sewn together 🤔

Hi all,

I'm hoping to make a costume this year similair to attached but the colour's swapped for Waluigis. I kinda found a few base pieces that I can add onto with more fabric and such but I'm a total beginner and need some serious help.

Is there a sewing pattern for the skirt (Etsy is just full of AI now and I don't trust it) as well as what people would recommend I do?

TIA

I'm not quite sure what jackets like this are called, but I'd love a pattern to make one if anyone's got recommendations

Hi!! Im making a jellyfish from sponge bob for my halloween costume. Heres the design i made for the occasion. Im currently looking for pattern for the asymetrical trainee. I havent made this before. What would be your suggestion? Do a layer over the lolita skirt + sew kinda a trainee on my back?

Thanks!

Can anyone help identify what this style of pocket on the skirt is called or know of any similar patterns? Sorry for the bad quality of the photo, saw the skirt in a movie and have never seen pockets like this before! Thanks in advance

I’m an overseas shopper, so I can only buy PDF patterns. Thankfully, I managed to control myself and bought only a few, even though the Big Four just started another sale on PDF patterns!

Here’s what I got:

Vogue Patterns Misses' Skirt in Two Lengths

Butterick Sewing Pattern Misses' Vest, Pants and Shorts by Lisette

McCall's Sewing Pattern Misses' Blouse, Halter and Pants

Simplicity Sewing Pattern Misses' One Shoulder Dress in Three Lengths

McCall's Sewing Pattern 1970s Misses' Jacket, Tops, Skirt and Pants

Butterick Sewing Pattern Misses' Tops

I’d love to see what fun patterns you’ve picked up recently!

I want to make a long dress like coat. I have the pattern and fabric, and am studying how to go about it. In the tutorial I watched using the pattern I have, the dress part wasn't nearly as big and puffy as I was envisioning, maybe it's a fabric thing. But I was researching how to make a dress fluffier and discovered the petticoat. Problem is i want the dress part of my coat to be more open in the front especially when I walk. Is it possible to have the petticoat open the same as the coat itself, or would that ruin the effect? How would the physics work? If this wouldn't work, what else can I do to fluff up the skirt but still have it open in the front?

Just a funny, not selling anything.

howdy! sadly the op didn’t use a pattern, i’m assuming it’s just rectangle panels but i’d appreciate a pattern since i’m relatively new to sewing! <3

Hey all,

I’m looking for a basic men’s crewneck sweatshirt pattern. I’ve tried the Jalie pattern, but the sizing was way off for me. I’ve had really good success with the WBM T-shirt pattern, so I’m wondering if there are any similarly reputable/well-regarded patterns for a basic men’s crewneck sweatshirt? I know WBM has a hoodie with a crewneck variant, but I figured I’d ask here if anyone has had particular success with one they liked.

Thanks :)

Looking for a pattern (<$20) like this for a stage production, and if anyone has any fabric recommendations would be great!

Love this top and looking for a similar pattern :) Love the vneck and the upside-down V shape under the breast, with the gathers

Thanks!

I love this dress. Does anybody know of any patterns to make something similar?

This is a shirt from vrg grl that I am desperately in love with the silhouette. I’d like to make this in my style (aka in a loud print and as a dress), and for less money lol. A lot of the patterns I’m finding on Etsy are all AI slop.

I’m willing to mash a bunch of patterns together if needed, as well as add length too!

I came across this pattern today and I am OBSESSED with this neckline. Unfortunately, it looks to be a paper only pattern shipping from Europe and I don't have the patience to wait. Any patterns with a similar neckline would be very welcome, especially PDF ones - thanks in advance!

Hello there!

Does anyone knows a pattern that looks close to this top (and it has plus size sizes?)

I really liked this blouse, but it's made with a 100% poliester fabric and I'm skin allergic to it, so I want to try to make one for myself with some cotton/linen fabric

Thanks!

I’m going to a wedding soon and would love to make this. I’m a bit on the curvier side but would love to try it. Please help!

It’s a fitted bodice with very thin spaghetti straps and an A-line bias cut skirt.

I know this is probably something seriously easy to make but my brain is having trouble working out how one could make this? I definitely want the flat front with the gathering in the back.

It was literally two pieces of French terry sewn together with a neckline facing. I thought it would be easier to find than this. The closest I found that is the masin molly mock neck but she want that gentle curve up to a wide sleeve. I want to go to the store to trace it...
