Patterns

I love it when creative people publish their own patterns. I think before you shop at Vogue, Butterick, McCalls, Simplicity, etc – look for something cool from an independent creative.

I am thrilled about Yvestown’s pattern for the Ikea Skruvsta Chair that she recovered. Makes me want to run to IKEA, again, and buy the chair, just so I can try out the pattern and make my own cover.

I’ve been making a few of Betsy Ross‘ One-For-All Bags. I love this pattern. Super versatile.

I’m thinking I’m going to make the Charmed Dress, in (plum?) velvet, for the holidays. Love the shape.

This Hustle Bustle Skirt is cute. The pattern is available on Etsy, as well as finished garments all by Miss Twiss.

And who needs a skirt pattern when you have a pillowcase and this tutorial?

I love this Apron Halter Dress pattern from Melimade.

I think I might just have to make one of these Pockets Full of Cash Aprons from LuluKnits.

Muse has some cute patterns. I like this reversible apron, it’s such a pretty shape.

I’m always on the lookout for patterns like these – have you found any? I’d love to add them to my list.
