Free Baby Sling Patterns
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 sewing slippery fabrics like satin or silk, if you find your fabric shifting out of place as
you sew or the top layer shifting ahead of the lower layer, try hand-basting your fabric
together first.

Sew one row of basting stitches close to, but not on the stitching line (so you’ll be able to
remove the basting stitches easily). Or sew two rows of basting stitches on either side of the
stitching line, then sew between the basting stitches.

And if you can, baste with a fine, silk thread which is less likely to leave holes behind in your
fabric.

Sewing Quick Tip:

As you start to
sew a seam, hold
your upper and
bobbin thread tails
back and out of the
way for your first
couple of stitches.
This will keep your
thread from
getting pulled
down into the
bobbin area and
jamming your
machine.
Sewing Quick Tip:

After you end a
line of stitching,
hold the end of the
stitching between
your thumb and
forefinger as you
pull your fabric
away from your
sewing machine.
This will keep the
thread ends from
pulling your fabric
and puckering it.
