5 out of 5 starsI’ve been looking for a pattern for a top I could wear under my wetsuit while scuba diving that’d be comfy & not bunch anywhere. This looks perfect & seems relatively easy to make. I’ll just have to size up bc I’m not a small or medium.

5 out of 5 starsI wanted a cute hanging bag for a few most-used vacuum tools. This bag perfect! Just the right size and hangs snug to the wall. Love it!

5 out of 5 starsThe pattern was quick and easy to download and put together even as a beginner. I absolutely adore the shape for smaller laundry hampers. I did notice that there aren't seam allowances so if you do cut it out on the line you will lose a little bit of room. that should be a fairly easy fix next time I make the pattern, which I am already planning on doing at least six more times! The loops are extraordinarily long, this is also an easy adjustment to make as a beginner.

Thanks for the feedback! It's great to hear how the pattern works from the perspective of a beginner. The length of the loop can be easily adjusted to suit your needs. Happy sewing!

5 out of 5 starsGreat pattern! I did add interfacing to all exterior pieces (sf101) as I wanted a more structured look. My first try was with the medium size, can’t wait to make the others.

I live in the mountains of North Carolina and got my start in sewing by making hippie patchwork dresses to sell at Grateful Dead and Phish concerts. I love creating my own patterns and sharing those with others so they can make their own creations.
