Let customers speak for us
from 3442 reviewsLove this pattern, I’ve made 2 to date. It’s quick to make and depending on the colours/fabrics you choose comes out different every time. Slightly tricky to get the right angle seam perfect but with a bit of ironing it’s sorted! I love Fibre Moods edgier patterns they are simple to follow and always a bit more on trend than other brands. The photo shows a Leona I made from old band t shirts colour blocked. Fun and effective!

This is such a brilliant pattern. Really enjoyable to sew and it taught me how to sew welt pockets .
It turned out so well I’ve now made 4. All were made from fabric left over from other projects. In one case only half a meter as I used lining fabric for the back . It’s the best scap buster ever .

Absolutely love this pattern such a quick sew only 3 pieces to work with . Ideal for a stretch fabric I used Ponte Roma , very clear instructions with pictures but honestly you don’t need then it such a easy sew .
I cut a 14 but I felt they were too flared at the bottom for me so I just took them in
A little but that’s just my personal taste
You have to trace out the waistband just so you have tracing paper

I’ve made the trouser version of the landers a couple of times, but what I really love this pattern for is the shorts. My wardrobe is full of pairs of lander shorts. I just love them. I loved the shape, but button up fly, the large pockets. They’re the perfect vintage styled shorts.
They come together really quickly and the instructions are good, but the best but they get the job done.
I make at least 3 pairs each year. I can’t get enough of the design. They’re so easy to style and perfect for using denim or heavy cotton scarps.
I cannot recommend this pattern enough, especially if you love a retro aesthetic

I had such high expectations for this pattern but unfortunately it just didn’t turn out like I wanted.
I’ve still given it 5 stars because the drafting and instructions are excellent. But unfortunately the style just didn’t work for me and it was quite tight around the bust. It looks amazing on so many people, but I don’t think the design works for my 5’2” DD figure.
Despite the final result, I did really enjoy sewing it and I can’t fault the pattern.
This review is more to say don’t be disheartened if you see so many amazing versions popping up with everyone looking incredible, this pattern doesn’t suit everyone and that’s ok.

I really wanted a Maxi tank dress for those days in summer where it’s so hot that you can do nothing but melt in a puddle.
As soon as I saw this pattern I knew it was perfect! I loved the dramatic scoop back neckline and the side slits.
It came together really quickly and is so comfortable to wear. I made it in a viscose jersey so it wasn’t too heavy and really helped to keep me cool in the summer.
The instructions are excellent and the fit is perfect. I would really recommend this pattern for the summer. I will be making more and living in them this year.

This is one of my most made jersey tops. It’s a true TNT for me. I love how quickly it sews up and how little fabric it uses.
Not only is it quick to sew, it’s quick to tape together too, you can make it from start to finish, cutting the fabric and taping the pattern in under 2 hours.
It’s a great pattern if you’re having a dip in your sewjo or just want to get though your mountain of jersey scraps.
The instructions are basic, but then the construction is super simple and the drafting is great so it’s a nice quick easy project.

I’ve been wanting to make this pattern for ages, but when I finally got around to it I wanted to see if I could make it in sweatshirting fleece. I’m happy to say they turned out better than expected. Not only are they the comfiest trousers in my wardrobe, but they look amazing.
I made no adjustments to the shape other than to shorten the leg by 1.5” which is a standard adjustment for me.
I made the elastic waist option and they sewed up really quickly and the construction wasn’t nearly as complicated as I had anticipated. I really enjoyed sewing it and the instructions are excellent. I can’t wait to make a woven pair, or more knit pairs.

This is such a lovely pattern, I made it whilst pregnant and it covered my growing bump beautifully. It was a dream to sew, with the instructions being so detailed and beautifully laid out.
The fit was true to the size chart. I made it in a cotton gingham which had the perfect amount of structure and drape.
There is so much potential for hacking, there is a whole series on this on the Sew Liberated blog. It’s also very size inclusive which is fantastic.
I would really recommend this pattern, it was a really enjoyable sew.

The perfect cottage core pinafore.
This is such a cute pattern and I really enjoyed sewing it. The instructions are excellent and packed with useful information and tips. The drafting is great and sewed up really nicely.
I used a pair of my late nans curtains and I love the vintage effect that it has. It looks so chic and cute.
The fit is great and I love the length. It’s short without being too short, and the pockets at a great size.

As soon as this pattern was released I snapped it up, I’d been looking for the perfect woven top and this was it.
I sewed it up in under an hour with less than a meter of fabric. It was a really simple construction and really easy to sew.
It’s the perfect scrap buster, palette cleanser project. It would be perfect for more formal wear but also looks great styled casually.
The instructions are great and the fit was true to the size chart. This is my go to every time I feel project overwhelm and want to do a project to kickstart my sewjo. I already have 9 in my wardrobe

This was the first button up shirt I ever made and I’ve made several more since. I really like the construction and the grown on sleeve, it’s such a nice design choice.
The only thing I’m not so keen on is how dramatic the back hem drop is, but that’s a design choice and not a problem with the pattern.
The instructions are great and for a more complicated pattern it was actually a really simple construction, not having to sew in the sleeves makes it quick work.
I think this is a great pattern for beginners wanting to dabble in shirt making, I like the shape and the fit. It’s really comfortable and fun to wear

My new favourite jogger pattern.
I got to sew these up before the release as a little preview, and I have barely taken them off since that. They are so comfortable and the colour blocking is so much fun!! They sewed up really quickly and the instructions were fantastic. The finished result is so cute and I can’t wait to make more. I have a pair of the shorts planned next.
I made them in size 5 using super thick Sweatshirting from rainbow fabric and they’re so squishy and soft, it’s like wearing a warm cloud. I shortened them by 1.5” because I’m 5’2” and the fit is perfect, it’s very true to size.
I really recommend this pattern if you want to make some comfy loungewear, and pair it with the Drew sweater you have the perfect set.

I was really impressed with the instructions in particular advice on measuring. Despite this it still took me 2 attempts but delighted with the end result. As I can't do buttonholes I put a 20" zip in instead.

I made this pattern when I was pregnant using the maternity hack and they’re were so comfortable, I wore them throughout. They are really comfortable and a really quick satisfying to make.
The instructions are great and I love the lack of side seam because it made it an even quicker project.
I haven’t made the regular version, but this was a perfect maternity pattern
