Easy-to-Sew Collection

This is a gorgeous swing dress that's going to appeal to so many people. It has a lovely relaxed silhouette, but there are loads of sweet details that stop it from being too basic. You've got the pointed collar which is installed with an attached neck band, a partial button placket, side seam pockets, and those front and back pleats that add just enough shaping while keeping that effortless feel.

This top features a round high neck at the front and a gorgeous V-back detail. You'll also love the dolman sleeves because they are super quick to sew and give you the little bit of coverage you want from a short sleeve. The side seam allowance is topstitched to make a channel and then elastic is fed through to create the ruched sides. Thin ties let you cinch the waist in as much or as little as you like too.

This is a slim-fitting knit midi skirt with a hidden elastic waistband, so you get all the comfort without that bulky gathered waist. The side-front slit makes it much easier to walk in and adds a little bit of interest, while the lace-trimmed hem and opening is such a pretty finishing touch. You’re looking for a ponte knit for this because it'll give you that lovely smooth shape while still being comfortable enough to wear all day.

This set is just adorable and feels like the perfect excuse to sew yourself some beautiful handmade sleepwear. The babydoll top has a lovely gathered empire waist, delicate lace trim around the neckline and sweet shoulder ties that fasten into bows at the back. The top has a bias binding casing on the inside of the waist that you feed elastic into to cinch it in. Paired with the floaty shorts, it creates such a pretty, feminine set.

Balloon-leg pants are everywhere at the moment, so this pattern really embraces that trend. These have a super relaxed fit with front pleats that create all that lovely volume, before tapering back in with darts at the hem. It has very cool topstitched details too! You've got side seam pockets, back patch pockets, and a mock fly. They're designed for woven fabrics so choose from twill, denim, linen or cotton depending on the look you're after.

This pattern is absolutely packed with lovely details. There are front leg seams, roomy patch pockets that wrap around towards the back, elastic at the waist and ankles, plus a twill tape drawstring to finish everything off. They have that cool utility-inspired look while still being really practical for everyday wear. Make in a hard-wearing fabric like denim chambray they are perfect for running around in while still looking really cool.
