The Power of Manifesting?

The Power of Manifesting?

I am not sure if anyone remembers my previous post about this sewing pattern, but I recently was able to secure an original copy of this pattern. What I am asking now, is how to make it available to others. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

New Simplicity Patterns August 2026

I received an email about the new patterns and rushed to see the new patterns. To put it nicely, I am underwhelmed. I am so sad to see what has happened to the Big 4 patterns. Ever since it was sold to a private equity (? I have yet to confirm this), I am really sad about it and I would love to talk to someone with inside knowledge about it. What are your thoughts on this situation? I am really saddened to think this is the middle to the end of the Big 4. I am struggling to find decent designs that I want to sew. Anyway, would love to discuss if anyone wants to chat about this.

help: first time using a sewing pattern

I just printed out my first ever pattern piece and I’m so confused on how to read this 😭
Is it basically just two fabric pieces that I need to cut out and sew together? Or am I missing something?
I’m a complete beginner so please explain like I’m 5

New and need help with custom patterns

I'm fairly new to sewing, to the point of I have a sewing machine but I hand sew everything because I don't know how to use my machine.

Anyways, I want to make my own pattern for a Rocky (from PHM) plush. My current idea is to sculpt it in aluminum foil and then masking tape it and cut the tape off and have my pattern that way. (I'm open to easier ways if available)

But I'm struggling with figuring out how I'm going to size the pattern up so I can make the plush however big as I want. Any ideas?

Burda Style Pattern - MIA

I know this is a long shot, but what the heck.

I came across this pattern from Burda (edition 08/2018) and absolutely love it. I cannot find this patten on their website or on search engines (including reverse image searches). I think I may have found a copy, but it appears to be in Russian? I reached out to Burda and they lost the archives for it.

Wanted to see if anyone else may happen to have this pattern somewhere, or is a better detective than I. Thanks so much!

Clothing Patterns for cold climates

I live in a cold climate and am finding myself stashing mostly warm weather clothing patterns (tank tops, t-shirts, light weight cropped pants, etc) and am really just looking for ideas of what to make that I can wear Oct-May. I am an advanced beginner but am also open to more advanced patterns that I can save for later.

What patterns have you made that you wear time and time again when it's cold out?

What are your favorite cold weather fabrics to sew with and where do you source them?

Help Finding a Pattern

Title says it. I am finding it so difficult to find a boatneck pattern for this top/dress.

I really like the A-line skirt rather than a peplum that flares out.

I'm low-intermediately skilled so I can do some pattern alterations but I'd really like something as close as possible.

Thanks 🙏

Pirate/baggy pants

Hey guys so I'm trying to find a pirate pants pattern that laces up at the mid calf. In my search I found a poorly reviewed pattern that is in the photos I attached. I was wondering if there's a name or term for the triangle waist because I love the look of it! It's just a shame the pattern is apparently bad.

Also any recommendations for pirate pants pattern would be appreciated, unisex would be great too, I have a large butt though so keeping that in mind 🤣

Good patterns in a similar style?

Hi all, I'm looking for pattern suggestions for tops similar to shown here? I don't mind if indie/PDF patterns, I'm just overwhelmed and don't want to end up with an AI pattern!! Tried and tested pattern markers most welcome. Thank you so much :)
