Pattern recommendations from our friends on social media:

Tiffany: I think either the Slim Fit Raglan by Patterns for Pirates, or the self drafted tee I made from your blog. I thought a number of other patterns fit me really well until I tried one drafted for me – and it fits me better (of course!).

Abigail: The 5oo4 Ninjas fit me excellently. I unpicked a pair of leggings that fit great but had holes and compared the shape to all the free legging patterns out there. Ninjas were the closest shape and I’m thrilled with the fit

Katy: I’m still new in the world of sewing for myself, but so far I’ve fallen in love with the Halla Stardust Tank (minus the star, just the plain tank with a nice wide band at the bottom), the Halla Juniper, and P4P leggings have done the trick for a nice easy sew! Thanks for continuing your podcast, I look forward to it every fortnight now!

girlandboydI’m currently on a roll with the Magnolia by Little Lizard King. I love the curved hem option– it’s super flattering. I’m also making a lot of the cocoon cardigans by p4p as gifts– the sizing is very forgiving and it flatters everyone! It’s also very easy to whip up and looks impressive                                 </td>
