The Best Sewing Patterns for Beginners | The Fold Line

[@sewonsister]

I love Helen's Closet Patterns for beginners. Her instructions are VERY good and she has lots of cute basics to learn with. I'm glad you made this video. I can refer people to it when they ask me to sew for them. Ha Ha Ha!!!!

I love your vlogs, and look forward to them! You need to check your sound levels, though, there are some disturbance in the force in the last three ones. The information is still very useful, keep going and don't let the technology get you down!

I’m very new to sewing and I’m about to dip my toe in the water in regards to having a go at making something for myself. Your video is extremely useful for me. Thank you for your recommendations.

Hello Kate, I've noticed this in the sewing bee video too but it seems that your mic is not as good as it used to be. The sound quality is tinny (metallic?) and the setup before must have been better. Thanks for the great videos otherwise!

It sounds to me like the volume has been pushed too loud in the editing stage. I don't like to be critical, but I'm sure that they'd want to know and improve, as they have such a high standard!

I'm listening on headphones and it is quite bad. It's possible it doesn't come across so bad on speakers? (Just noting in case the editor listens to it on speakers and doesn't notice it because of this!)

Fabulous, as always 😘😊👏🏼👏🏼

[@hey_virginia]

What a fabulous topic, thank you! Choosing achievable patterns is my #1 sticking point, my first few garments were probably too advanced in terms of having too many new techniques, and they took forever! The square neck top and the raglan sleeve dress especially are both interesting *and* achievable and could be flattering with a bigger bust. THANK YOU

Love your blog as always even if it’s been 35 years since I was a beginner sewist, thanks!

[@sallydingle321]

Great pattern picks there Kate...all perfect for beginners 👌💝🙏😘

[@rosariobecerril1473]

I love your videos!!! They give me a confident how to start!

[@KimLomQld]

😊 you for this review Kate ! I really love that V neck dress !!

[@juliadroy1179]

I love seeing the patterns even though I'm not a beginner sewist

[@patriciamcmullen]

Love this vlog! One thing would have been helpful would be to mention fabric type, woven or knits.

[@madebykarenmarie]

Thanks, Kate! Love your videos, and it's a great idea make a separate one with different beginner friendly patterns. I think I only made t-shirts for the first year while I figured out some options. Wish I could have had a video like this back then. Have a lovely weekend!

[@TheFoldLine]

So pleased you enjoyed 👍🏻

[@karenmiller3300]

Great ideas Kate! Thank you

[@tracyfrost]

Excellent idea

[@margiehogan3315]

Great advice! Many thanks.

[@mel_issa__]

Does anyone else have problems with the sound? Last video I also had a hard time with the sound. No problem with other channels but I don't see any comments about it 🤔

[@paularoberts2129]

Hi Kate what lovely patterns thank you so much for this video I was sorting out some fabric last night to make some summer clothes I make everything in three’s lot’s of mix and match then xx🧵🇬🇧🧵🇬🇧

[@talloolahmoon]

Love the dungarees!

[@aliyarichmond2466]

I was wandering if you do for advanced sewers some patterns?

[@eileenrigby6401]

Hi, I saw a pattern on your you tube channel recently for overalls - ( top selling pattern on your shop)the image shown was made in bright red? Any idea which one this was?

[@TheFoldLine]

I think you spotted the Waves & Wild Heyday Dungarees! thefoldline.com/product/heyday-dungarees-pdf/

[@eileenrigby6401]

@@TheFoldLine Yesss, that’s it , thank you

[@fionualamcglynn5827]

Would you recommend a beginners trouser’s pattern please

[@mel_issa__]

I personally love Bob Trousers from Style Arc. I've just finished a pair an hour ago and it's my 4th or 5th pair.

[@colinkirley5368]

I have just watches most of you KZbin show and am amazed the only women sew. Have you never seen a man sew there are many of us out there and there are patterns for men that are easy like the business shirt KWIK SEW K3883 then there is the KWIK SEW 4088 T SHIRT SHORTS AND DRESSING GOWN. Please show both genders as it seems a little one sided. And this world is more than one gender. Thank you.

[@TheFoldLine]

Hi Colin, you are correct both men and woman sew, what I would say is that there is a serious lack of mens beginner patterns out there. The patterns we featured are for absolute beginners, the pjs bottoms are unisex so you could make them 👍🏻

[@michaelmontgomery6388]

Nothing for men then?
