FOLKWEAR PATTERNS

Folkwear patterns offer a certain nostalgia. They transcend other patterns in the sense that they will take you to another time and even to a new culture.

Some of you may have thought of folkwear patterns to be strictly costume but many patterns are actually very wearable and can become a priceless original piece. Whether you plan to make a garment for someone else or yourself, you will definitely love making it and really appreciate the completed product. Allow yourself to be creative. Imagination is a BEAUTIFUL thing!

We sell the patterns in store and a few are offered at a discounted price.

A few of the patterns brought to life:






"Wall Street Blouse and Skirt"
My favorite!



"Swing Suit"
How very chic and freeing to the body.

"Egyptian Shirt"
Example of a garment of culture brought to everyday wear.
You pick patterns and fabric to customize it to your liking.

"Flamenco Dress an Practice Skirt"
This may seem "costume" but imagine this with a rich solid fabric.
Make it softer with a light weight fabric and customize the pattern to your liking.
I see the bell of the ball potential!
