THE EDIT: NEW SEWING PATTERN RELEASES - 25 AUGUST

It’s time for your weekly dose of The Edit: New Sewing Pattern Releases. This blog and vlog highlight some of the new arrivals to hit the shop this week. Kate natters about all the details you need to know so if you’re a pattern nerd like we are, this is for you!

Sew Over It Natalia Dress: Summer isn't over yet and this might skip to the front of your sewing queue. You won't find darts or closures on the Natalia Dress as the shaping is created with elastic channels under the bust, at the waist and the top of the back bodice.

Sew Over It Ultimate Wrap Skirt: How about a simple skirt that transitions into autumn with ease? You can whip this quick and easy skirt up in just a few hours, and it's a great first project for beginners

The Modern Sewing Co. Racer Vest: Need to stitch up a last-minute summer top? The Racer Vest is a thoughtfully designed basic that's simple to sew but doesn't cut corners. The finished article will make you want to sew another... and another

Selvedge Magazine Issue 120 Carpet Magic: If you love flicking through beautiful, coffee table-worthy magazines, this textiles themed one is waiting to be discovered. Issue 120 explores the theme of the "Magic Carpet", steeped in Persian and Arabian folklore. It's a beautiful and interesting read.

We have had a box of new Simplicity patterns with new styles across women's, men's and childrenswear. Fancy an 80s throwback? Check out the vintage pattern reissues. Perhaps you own a pampered pooch? If so, check out the dog coat pattern (and please share snaps if you make it!)

Commercial patterns are having quite a week as we've also got new styles from McCall's! Don't miss the Laura Ashley vintage pattern reissue or the two new styles from Brandi Joan.

If you have your eye on any of the patterns in the last issue of Fibre Mood magazine, you'll be pleased to know we have the PDFs in stock! The patterns come with seam allowances included and you can print them at home or via our copy shop printing service.

That's your lot for this week, we will be back with a fresh pattern Edit in a week's time. Have a lovely Sunday team!
