Great for novices!

The instructions were detailed and had pictures for every step. I usually sew quilts, not clothing, but I was able to make some lovely cloaks for my godchildren! I used fabric from my local reuse shop.

I printed on standard printer and taped the pattern together. No problems at all.

Great pattern: comfy feet

I was delighted by how quickly these slippers came together. I used the sleeve of an old (woven) cardigan, parts of a worn-out shirt and duvet cover for lining, a scrap of thick corduroy as padding and a bit of denim for the sole. I added stick-on non-slip patches for security. The instructions were easy to follow and the slippers are so comfortable. I plan to make more for myself and for family and friends.

Great pattern

The pattern was really clear with easy-to-follow instructions. It was my first time making clothes for a boy, and this pattern made it a breeze (pun intended)!

I thought the collar would be very difficult to do, but it turned out to be doable with the step-by-step instructions. The French seams also turned out beautifully.

The only problem I had was with installing Adobe on my computer, so I couldn’t access the layers. I ended up printing the entire pdf and tracing the size I wanted. It works out as I’m sure I’ll be making more of these shirts!

Easy and fun make

Used some vintage corduroy and polyester for lining. Very detailed and easy to understand instructions. It was very loose fitting so I did end up taking it in quite a bit.. overall A+

Easy to Make

The racoon hot water bottle cover was easy to sew. I didn't look at the directions, so I can't comment on those. I did add a seam allowance for the pieces that were appliqued onto the main fabric because I wasn't how much it would fray.

It was a Christmas gift to my daughter and she loves it!
