Happy Sunday, Foldliners! This week's Edit is literally bursting at the seams. First up, we have a deep dive into a new-to-the-Fold-Line women's and children's wear designer. The patterns are not just delightful, they are excellent value too! And there is more to share, so you won't want to miss this update.

Oh me Oh My Sewing

There are currently 24 baby and children's patterns in the Oh Me Oh My catalogue - each as cute as the last.

They are full of fun flourishes, and most are easy to sew. Sew them as gifts for the little ones in your life, and they will be treasured.

The kids don't get to have all the fun. Oh Me Oh My has 12 to-die-for women's patterns. They are feminine, fun, whimsical and trendy. From tie-front tops to shirred dresses to the must-have quilted jacket, these patterns are ready to capture your heart. Most of the patterns feature multiple design options, so you won't stop at one make.

Pattern Picks:

Sage Coat, Jacket + Vest: This pattern includes three variations: a coat with an oversized fit and button closure, a jacket with a standard fit and tie closure, and a vest with a standard fit, tie closure and cropped length. Perfect for upcycling quilts into quilt coats, the pattern is unlined but includes optional bound seams for a reversible garment. 

Ophelia Top + Dress: This midi dress or crop top features a corset inspired bodice with a sweetheart neckline, adjustable drawstring detail, and elastic back for a perfect fit. Choose between puff sleeves and spaghetti straps, and between a gathered or A-line skirt for the dress.

Sadie Top + Dress: This relaxed fit dress or top features a V-shaped neckline and tie front closure (with optional hook and eye tape for modesty). The long or elbow length sleeves also feature functional ties.

Style Arc Carter Dress

This clever pattern gives you a multitude of ways to sew a knit fabric dress. Carter features a knit bodice with various necklines and sleeve length options, paired with a skirt in either knit or woven fabric.

Noodlehead Quarry Tote

Perfect for knitting and craft supplies, lunch or as an everyday bag, everyone needs a Quarry tote. A fun bag in two sizes (small and mid-sized) with a flat base, zippered front pocket, and interior mesh slip pocket. The pattern has options for handles and an adjustable crossbody strap. The pattern also includes a bonus zippered pouch!

Ready to Sew Hadid Couture Track Pants/Shorts

Track pants are trending, and this is a couture take on the style. This pattern elevates the classic Adidas track pants into a couture-inspired piece. The iconic three stripes are reimagined as delicate pintucks, offering a subtle nod to sportswear while keeping your look timeless and chic. Choose between zipped or snap button openings at the hem to showcase your shoes.

So, that's your lot for another week. It gives you rather a lot to ponder in the pattern world!
