Tailors Ham and Sleeve

I made both using upholstery fabric, cotton lining and wool scraps for stuffing. All the materials came from my stash. They were easy to sew and the directions were clear. Great addition to my sewing room!

My ham turned out so beautiful and has been very useful for making the sunny hat. Thanks

Great pattern!

This is an excellent, straightforward pattern with easy to follow instructions. It's a simple sewing tool, but if you're looking for guidance on every aspect of making it, as well as materials, this is really helpful to have.

Pressing ham

Great pattern. Made myself this ham. Works great. Really appreciate the free pattern. I went to Lowe’s with a gallon ziplock and filled it from their shop vac at the wood cutting table. Can’t beat the price!

Tailor Ham free pattern

Thank you for the free pattern which I have now made. I used calico for the inner and 10oz natural 100% cotton canvas for the outer. The instructions were very easy to follow. I used wood shavings from pet store. It takes quite a bit of stuffing but I have ended up with a good firm ham which is as good as a bought one, very pleased. Thank you.

Been looking for ham pattern for ages

I made both shapes. Great pattern, easy to follow. I used old sheet (tight weave) for inner, didn’t have any suitable wool for outer so used thick quilting cotton. Filled with wood shavings (from pet shop). If I made another one I would use the ground walnut shells I use for pin cushions, these are fine so one could use a funnel which would make life easier and less messy. I would also leave opening on short edge.
