Free Patterns - Other Baby Stuff
If a project includes a printable pattern, you’ll see a “p” next to its title. If a project doesn’t include a
pattern template, don’t despair! It likely consists of simple fabric shapes (like squares and rectangles)
that you can easily measure and cut yourself.

Note that some projects may be designed for a specific type of sewing machine. But don’t let that
discourage you! If a project you like calls for, say, complex embroidery stitches and you have just a
simple zigzag machine, you can try experimenting with a satin stitch, hand-embroidering a design, or
adding purchased embellishments instead.

Sewing Quick Tip:

When purchasing plaid fabric, always get more than what the pattern calls for. So, how much
more you ask?

One simple guideline is to purchase one or two extra repeats of the design.

A more specific guideline you can follow is:

For a small plaid: Get about 1/8 of a yard of extra fabric (if the plaid is quite small, however,
you probably don't need to purchase extra fabric at all).

For a medium-sized plaid: Get about 1/4 to 1/2 a yard extra fabric.

For a large plaid: Get about 1 yard extra fabric.

(And remember to also get extra fabric for possible shrinkage.)

Sewing Quick Tip:

If you’ve
accidentally
crushed the pile of
a napped fabric like
velvet, you may be
able to restore it.

Try dampening the
fabric by spraying
it lightly with
water, then fluff
and raise the nap
using a small
brush.
Sewing Quick Tip:

Remember to
always reinforce
any seams in a
garment that will
be subject to extra
stress, such as
underarm and
crotch seams. You
can do this by
simply stitching
again over your
first row of
stitching.
