As the summer season comes to an end, we're turning our attention to sewing patterns you can wear while it's still warm but that will keep on giving once the weather turns cloudier.
Read on to find out more about five great patterns, aimed at absolute or confident beginners, that will help you transition from summer into autumn!
Niamh Skirt
Niamh is a beautiful floaty skirt that comes with three length options: mini, midi and maxi. The longest version looks equally great with sandals as she does with boots, so you can wear her across the seasons.
Pair your maxi Niamh Skirt with the Hebden T-Shirt to keep it casual or make a matching Isabelle Blouse for a faux-dress effect.
Sizes UK 6-30.
Hebden T-Shirt
Hebden is a classic baseball t-shirt with raglan sleeves. The great thing about this pattern is that it comes with a women's and a men's version, so you can make it for yourself and as a present for friends and family.
Perfect with jeans (wear it with our Ultimate Jeans!), the Hebden T-Shirt also pairs well with the Niamh Skirt and Ultimate Culottes for an everyday look.
Women's sizes UK 8-20. Men's sizes XS-XXL.
Ultimate Culottes
A solid pair of Ultimate Culottes is the perfect transitional garment to add to your wardrobe. The loose shape makes them great for summer and they look great with tights and trainers in the autumn. They pair perfectly with a knit top like our Hebden T-Shirt, Edie Top or Audrey Top.
Sizes UK 8-20.
Isabelle Blouse & Dress
Our Isabelle sewing pattern includes a blouse version as well as a knee-length and midi dress option. The longer dress version especially is so comfy to wear and will transition well from a barmy summer to a cloudy autumn.
Sizes UK 6-30.
Sylvia Robe
A floaty Sylvia Robe made in a striking fabric will serve you well at the end of summer worn over sleeveless dresses and will look great in the autumn over jeans and a t-shirt.
Sylvia comes with two length options and is a nice quick make that you'll reach for all the time to complete any outfit.
Sizes UK 6-30.
