Welcome

I just love sewing patterns! The styles, the artwork, the history, and the stories they tell are fascinating to me. When my collection exceeded a fair amount of storage, I decided to share it with others. Now I love sending patterns to sewists, costumers, and crafters all over the world.

Thank you for visiting this web-site and my Etsy Shop. I hope you find something special for your collection. If not, please come back soon – new and different listings are added frequently to both shops.

I also love to make things. Not because I’m particularly good at it, but because it brings me joy. I especially like to make things for others – family, friends, and children’s charities such as Project Linus, Dress a Girl Around the World, and Barbie Care and Share.

In the blog I share some of these projects and tips that have worked for me, including links to the tools and materials I actually use or have used and heartily recommend. I hope you find something to try that also works for you. If you click on these links and make a purchase, it helps with the fees associated with maintaining this site, so thank you!
