SEWISTS IS HARNESSING

ALL OF OUR IDEAS.

Y
ou probably have more sewing ideas than you know what to do with,
and new options are flying at you all the time. That’s why editing and
filtering is so essential to developing your own creative process around sewing.

For many of us, that means getting visual. We created this compilation of
Seamwork designs to help you plan and visualize the custom, handmade
wardrobe that’s right for you.

In the following pages, you’ll find technical sketches (also known as “flats”)
for all of the current Seamwork designs, including variations and bonuses
that you can use to get even more mileage from the patterns. We’ve also
included some ideas on how to use them in your own design process.

If you’re not a Seamwork member yet, visit seamwork.com/membership


to learn more. Seamwork releases 2 wardrobe-building patterns every single
month, and as a member you get access to patterns, plus monthly goodies
like bonus variations, styling ideas, tutorials, and more.
