To share the love of sewing I have created both PDF and free sewing patterns. I focus on simple, easy sewing patterns, and many of them are for upcycling.
I want sewing to be enjoyable, so I want you to be able to sew without spending a bunch of money. I have found ways to use up scrap fabric or to reuse unwanted clothing. There’s so a lot of free fabric to be found all around you.
My PDF sewing patterns are simple and right now just for children. They are upcycling projects to sew adult clothing into adorable clothing for children and babies. It’s nice to be able to use what you have.
I offer a lof of free sewing patterns in PDF format so that you can print them and use them when you want. A lot of them are clothing for children and babies, and some of them are for the home or for holidays. I made a lot of them when I wasn’t as skilled so I’m slowly going through and updating them, but it will take me a lot of time to finish.
Free sewing patterns are great for beginners and testing out a pattern designer before buying a pattern. I also have some free skirt sewing patterns with unique details for make custom fitted skirts.
If you make something using on of my PDF or free patterns, I’d love to see your sewing project! Please share it on social media with the hashtag #heatherhandmade and tag me. Seeing what others make with my patterns is a true joy.
