The BEST Hot Weather Dress patterns
Whether you’re on a city break or a beach adventure, we recommend packing one or two handmade dresses. Something that can be dressed up or down, isn’t too clingy and if needed, offers enough coverage to avoid sunburn. Maxis and midi dress patterns are great for this and show off prints or broderie anglaise fabric beautifully. And if you like strappy dress patterns we’ve got plenty to choose from.
Essential swim and coverup patterns
Are you a sea-swimmer or strictly a poolside poser? It’s quite an exciting challenge to make your own swimwear. You’ll learn how to use different kinds of fabrics and notions, and create the perfect fit. Watch the sewalong for Simplicity 9609 to learn the techniques from our resident expert Madalynne. And while you’re at it, whip up a chic cover-up! We have caftan sewing patterns, sarong skirts and more for you to throw over your me-made swimwear.
