Good Patterns for Beginners


Follow the links below to get to the Pinterest boards I have set up for beginning sewists. These are patterns with relatively few pieces, instructions written for beginners, and which should be easy (or easier!) to fit. If you have a good pattern you think I should add, I'd love to know about it! Comment below or send me an email at poldapop[at]gmail[dot]com.
