Make something great with one of these free sewing patterns! They are all downloadable PDF sewing patterns for printing at home!
One of my favorite things about sewing is free sewing patterns. When I first started sewing I couldn’t afford to buy fabric and patterns so I decided to stick with free pdf sewing patterns at first.
It helped me learn more about sewing, sewing patterns, and fitting. Trying different patterns helped me learn different sewing techniques because everyone likes to do processes in a different way.
I’ve pulled a list together of all my downloadable sewing patterns that I’ve created over the years. I’ll be honest that the more recent patterns are much better than my older patterns because I’ve learned and improved my pattern design skills.

What is a PDF sewing pattern?
A PDF pattern is a sewing pattern designed on the computer and organized so that it can be printed on several letter or A4 size pieces of paper.
I love using PDF sewing patterns because if the pattern gets ruined or if my children or I changed sizes, I can always print it again. It’ll never be destroyed since I have a digital version!
How do you use a PDF sewing pattern?
Open the PDF on a computer and click print. When printing make sure that the scaling is set to 100% or no scaling so that the pattern prints at the correct size.
Once the pattern is printed it can be taped together to get the full size. Then the pattern can be cut for each pattern piece size or individual sizes can be traced so that the pattern can be used again and again. Learn how to use PDF sewing patterns.
