There is no Ravelry for sewing patterns, unfortunately, so here is a list of good resources. If you know of other resources not listed here, please let us know!
Your Local Library
(TCCL, not TSAS.)
TCCL and the Libby app offer a dozen magazines with sewing patterns. Sew & Tell is a good one. They have books as well.
Pattern books are also available through their Freading app.
Free Patterns
- Mood Fabrics
- Fabrics-Store.com
- Peppermint Mag (most are pay-what-you-want)
- Burda Style also plenty of paid patterns
- OTTOBRE design has a number of free patterns, including a few toys
- Bernina patterns
- Singer patterns
- ithinksew has a solid selection of free patterns if you sign up
- Spoonflower patterns
- Reddit.com/r/freepatterns (available off-campus)
- Charm Patterns has a small selection of free dress patterns
Archives
- Commercial Pattern Archive (advanced only—no directions or dimensions included, only construction pieces)
Internet Archive
The Internet Archive is a bit of a firehose of information, but careful searching can yield great results. Some require a free account in order to borrow the item.
For instance:
- Sewing Casual Clothes
- How to Make Your Own Sewing Patterns
- Sewing Fun Stuff is wild, but an interesting resource for sculptural sewing. (Also great if you need to sew a 7' palm tree.)
- Bean Bag Buddies stuffed beanbag toys
Paid Patterns
- Something Delightful carries Vogue, McCall's, Butterick, etc.
- The Fold Line
- Pattern Review (why is this not organized by project type?!)
- Makerist
