New Pattern Release :: Modern Sweater

I’m celebrating my birthday today by sharing this brand new pattern with you! I hope you love it as much as we do! The Modern Sweater is the perfect balance of on trend details with classic looks that you can reach for years to come.  The neckline is a perfect relaxed crew neck with several options to finish it off. The entire sweater is finished with bands, making it a super quick and simple sew…. it’s very easy to make a big stack! The loose fit is a great medium between comfortable and cozy and still figure flattering. The length options mean you can pair it with any bottoms you’re loving at the moment.

  The Modern Sweater is the perfect comination of modern looks with classic options too. You can choose from the on trend lantern sleeves or go with the traditional sleeves.  Pick from crop lengths that is all the rage right now with high waisted bottoms or go for the never out of style shirt length.  You can add on a short or tall waistband a get more variety on length as well.  The crop with tall waistband gives you more coverage while keeping the blouse at the flattering point in your figure…while adding it to the shirt length will give you more of a tunic length.  The neckline options can give you very different looks and can take you from fall into winter.  The neckline is slightly deeper and wider that a traditional crew neckline, which is comfortable and right on trend in todays shops.  The thicker neckband give it a super classic casual look.  The turtleneck going from that deeper neckline up the neck is such a cute look.  While you can’t get cozier than the fold over turtleneck for keeping warm. The options for the Modern Sweater include:

  • Neckband, Turtleneck, and Fold Over Turtleneck
  • Crop Length and Shirt Length
  • Short Waistband and Tall Waistband
  • Traditional Sleeves and Lantern Sleeves
  • Solid Bodice and Sleeves and Colorblocked Bodice and Sleeves

The youth sizes range from 3m – 14 and the adult sizes are for the full, newer size chart, extending from XXS – Plus 5X for the Adult Hourglass Figure. *Want to learn more about how to measure yourself for these pattern?  We’ve got you covered with an in-depth blog HERE.  And in case you’re new to Patterns for Pirates and PDF patterns in general, we have a great blog full of new-user tips HERE to help you get started!  As with all of our current releases and updates, the pdfs now include our layers feature and can be found in Letter, A4, A0 and projector sizes.  And for even more helpful fun, we have a free* printable that you can use to help record your measurements as you take them.

New Pattern Release :: Kelli and Charli’s Dress

We’re starting of 2022 with a bang! The Kelli’s and Charli’s Dress pattern will have you feeling fabulous and glamorous throughout the year! When I put on the Kelli’s Dress I cannot help but strike a pose and smile… and I hope you feel the same when you put yours on! The Kelli’s and Charli’s Dresses have a beautiful gathered detail to the wasitline that gives a lovely and flattering line.  You can grab those thinner, dressier knits that aren’t stable enough for wiggles and galas and now have the perfect dress to use them on!

Named for one of my life long friends, Kelli’s Dress has a gorgeous gathering detail along the side seam from underbust to high hip creating a beautiful detail and flattering lines.  The cross over V neck is again a flattering open neckline, but with 4 way stretch fabrics, it can give you a lot of wiggle room to play with the neckline coverage.  Sleeve options will take you from summer to winter in a heart beat and the different lengths will take you from casual to a formal event easily.  The dramatic floor length with split is the most fun thing you’ll wear!  You cannot help but instantly feel glamourous and start striking poses.  Not wanting to show off all that leg? No problem, the floor length also has a no split option that is still stunning.  Shorter lengths are mini for a fun night out or knee for a perfect everyday look or cocktail in different fabrics. Kelli’s Dress is drafted for thin to medium stretch knits absolutely perfect for those stretchy glitter poly blends you find, double brushed poly, stretch lace, waffle knit, sweater knit, ribbed knits, light weight cotton spandex, and stretch velvet. The options for the Kelli’s Dress include:

  • Tank, Cap Sleeve, 3/4 Sleeve, and Long Sleeve
  • Mini, Knee, Floor with Slit, and Floor with No Slit (Charli’s-Youth has Knee and Floor Length only).
  • Neckline Facings or Elastic Hem

The youth sizes range from 3m – 14 and the adult sizes are for the full, newer size chart, extending from XXS – Plus 5X for the Hourglass Figure and XXS-6XL for the V Figure. *Want to learn more about how to measure yourself for these pattern?  We’ve got you covered with an in-depth blog HERE.  And in case you’re new to Patterns for Pirates and PDF patterns in general, we have a great blog full of new-user tips HERE to help you get started!  As with all of our current releases and updates, the pdfs now include our layers feature and can be found in Letter, A4, A0 and projector sizes.  And for even more helpful fun, we have a free* printable that you can use to help record your measurements as you take them.

2021 A Year in Review

We added 9 new patterns to the shop (21 if you count the youth and adult as separate patterns!): 

 

I truly love each and every pattern we put out this year! Here  are  free  patterns  we  gave  this  year as well: 

The freebies will always remain free and will always be there if you don’t want to save them to your own device/cloud/etc. What else did we do this year? How about some special events we held…

Or what Sew A Longs we put on?

You can find each Sew A Long on our blog and as a playlist on our YouTube Channel!

I always love to see what the most popular, previously released patterns are through the year as well! In order of popularity:

Our most popular freebies this year were: Peg Legs, Walk the Plank- Adult , and Peg Leg Add-ons.  Our most loved new freebie was the Fingerless Gloves. 

 

Our blog is run mostly by the wonderful Alex- you know her from our Sew A Longs! But we also have a team of contributors who help up write up blogs… together we managed to put out 9 more P4P University blog posts…these are great beginner blogs answering the questions we see asked the most frequently in the P4P FB group! So, if you ever have a basic sewing question hop onto the P4P blog and use that search… we are working on having the answers for you!  

P4P University added this year: Using a Projector for Sewing, Tips and Tricks for Sewing Curves, Color Blocking Tips, Adjusting for Height, Facings, Understitching and Topstitching, Adding Trims to Hems, and Interfacing 101 .  You can also find all the P4P University blogs rounded up in the FB Group Album!

Here are a few more highlights from the different Social Media outlets we use to keep you in the loop! If you follow me on each one you will notice I use them all slightly differently. I tend to share more selfies, in the moment/candid pictures and sneak peeks on my Instagram. I use the Facebook Group and Page to announce new patterns, sales, etc. I use the Blog to keep all details from everything from new patterns, sales, how tos, hacks, etc. The YouTube channel of course has all our videos from sew a longs, P4P universities, and tutorial videos as well.  I finally caved and joined TikTok for some reels.  

 

Thank you to all the new followers, members, etc and for everyone who was here already and stayed with us! I appreciate each and every single one of the follows, members, subscribers, etc!

I’m excited to see what 2022 will bring for Patterns for Pirates as well- I wish you all a Happy New Year!

3rd Annual Holiday Charity Week- 2021

I began an annual tradition a couple years ago of giving a large portion of profits from the week of Christmas to a charity.  It makes my heart full to be able to reach out a helping hand, with the assistance of the Patterns for Pirates community.  I just hope that our donations will allow a little extra support for those who need it.

We’ve opted to support the same charities that were benefactors last year.  They may change in the future but for this year at least, they will remain the same.

I will be donating to both Action Against Hunger and a local North Texas Food Bank.  With the hardships that the past couple years has brought upon everyone, so many more families need help getting enough food on the table and I hope this week will help get more food to more tables in need both here locally and across the world with Action Against Hunger.

                                           

 

You do not need to do anything special for your purchase to count toward the funds being donated during charity week.  30% of every single pattern purchase during this time frame will be donated automatically. *Note- the Fabric for Pirates Fabric Subscriptions transactions will not go through until the 1st of the month, which means even if you sign up during this week the transaction will not apply to this charity week.

If you’ve been eyeing any patterns for your stash, now is the perfect time to grab it and help make our donation amounts even bigger!

Thank you and Happy Holidays,

Judy

Sublimination Fun

What’s more fun than being able to create the exact garment you or a loved one is aching for?  I’ve included a “Sublimination Bundle” as a prize in our Fall Sale and Giveaway this year, so I can gift the joy of making something even more custom to a lucky sewist.  Since it’s not directly sewing related, I thought I would explain a bit more about it!

I recently got a teeny tiny bit into sublimination and I can’t help but share how fun it is with my fellow sewist!  The quick run down is sublimination is the process of using special sublimination ink and sublimination paper to dye polyester.  So, it is limiting to what fabrics you can use… the higher the polyester content, the better print you will get.  Don’t mind a more “vintage, worn look”?  Then you can get away with as low as 50% polyester.  Other than that, if you want a crispt image… poly, poly, poly.

Here is a 50% poly after a wash.  So you can see the difference.

If you’re a double brushed poly fan… good news 😉 Works great! So do performance fabrics, ITY, sweatshirt, sweater, waffle, french terry, that are polyester with a little bit of spandex. The lighter the fabric, the better the image will look as well.  Since we’re printing with an ink jet printer, we have black, blue, yellow, and pink inks to mix.  No white.  So, sine we can’t print white… we can’t dye white onto the poly.  Got a dark fabric and want a snowman? Sublimination ain’t going to work lol… You can get away with lighter, pastel colors as long as you’re not wanting anything white on the image.  Here I’m using a white poly sweater knit knit, which is perfectly soft and cozy and will give me a nice, crisp image.  

Lets go over what you need to do this process first. *These are affiliate links.

First and foremost, you’ll need a printer with sublimination ink… YouTube has told me that these Epson Ecotank printers are the easiest for someone just wanting to craft at home.

Don’t you put that ink that comes with it in the printer though! Don’t do it! Instead, you’ll need to fill it with sublimination ink… luckily I’ve found ink that matches the ink refills perfectly, meaning they’re super easy to use!

You’ll need sublimination paper as well.  There are a lot of brands, and I haven’t used hardly any yet… so I’m no expert on which is the best!  I’ve used this one and it worked great for me so far. 

Next big item you’ll want is a heat press.  Some can be pretty big, bulky and hard to store.  But, I found this smaller one that will still cover a 12×10″ area and I think it would be perfect for a home crafter!  Want  a bigger  one?  Here  is  the  one  I have.

I like to use this heat tape to hold my image in place when I press as well, so I included it in the Sublimination Bundle Prize in the Fall 2021 Giveaway!  Along with some teflon sheets to keep from scortching fabrics and giving a nice even heat. You’ll also want some plain paper.  You can use the plain paper to put inside a shirt if it’s already sewn up so the ink doesn’t go through to the back piece and on top so it doesn’t go through to your teflon sheet or heat press.

 

 

Okay, now we have our supplies we can jump into how to do it!

First up you’ll want an image… anything you’d like on the garment.  I usually create mine in my Sihlouette Studio, because it’s an easy to use software (that’s free for everyone). You can also use photoshop or Illustrator if you’re an Adobe fan.  Anything you can print from.

You’ll want to set up your printing settings to mirror the image (or mirror it before you print).  And to have a high quality print, with true colors… here is a screenshot of my printer settings. Some of these settings you’ll need to click through the advanced section.

Print out your image.  Don’t worry if the colors look a little dull, they will brighten up when you press it… unless you’re not using an all poly content 😉 Tear around your image. You heard me… tear it instead of cutting it.  The tearing helps blend that “edge” instead of a crisp line.

Place your image where you’d like on the fabric, already cut pattern piece, or finished garment. (Note… if you’re using a finished garment you’ll want to place a sheet a paper between so the ink doesn’t bleed through to the back… I’ve actually never had it bleed though to the paper yet… but you never want to cry over that and you can re-use that piece of paper over and over!) Use the heat tape to keep your printed image in place.

Set your settings as the paper instructs.  Although, this paper suggests 356-374 degrees F at 25-30 seconds… and after searching the internet, asking other crafty friends, and experimenting… I suggest 400degrees at 60 seconds.  It’s what has worked best for me. Now for the magic…press that sucker!

Peel off tape and image and look at your beautiful, custom design. How fun is that? My Baby Boy has REALLY  enjoyed being able to ask mom to make him some special shirts of characters we can’t normally find in his size! And now Baby Girl can have all the rainbow unicorns on her things that are 2 sizes down in width than height that fit her best too.

Once you have all your things set up, this is such a quick process for adding something fun, custom and unique to a garment! Now when my kids let me know about that spirit day they’d like a custom, mom-made shirt for the NIGHT BEFORE… I can do that and not stay up half the night 😉

New Patterns Release :: The Lumberjack Patterns!

I don’t know about where you live, but here fall came in with a sneaky punch to the face here… and I am so glad to have my cozy Lumberjacks to snuggle up with this unusually chilly weather!  Now you can have them to grab when the chilly weather sneaks up on you!

There is nothing I love more in the colder months then getting out my flannel shirts! I love to throw them on over a t-shirt in the cool mornings, tie them around my waist in the warmer afternoons. It’s something I have always had in my closet every year! So when you’re ready to cuddle up grab your cozy brushed flannel, sherpa, minky, and the Lumberjack pattern and make magic!

You can pick from a traditional collar, collar stand and woven cuffs or go with a more relaxed look with the hood and knit cuffs. Keep it a lighter layer with the unlined option. This is a very oversized look perfect for layering on top even bulky sweaters. Or you can line it with something warm and cozy for a jacket. No matter what you can add all the pockets! Chest pockets and in seam pockets for all the things you need to carry and to make sure you have somewhere to cozy your hands in too. The Lumberjack is drafted for woven/non-stretch fabrics like flannel, lightweight denim, lightweight wool and the like. You can line it with more flannel, cotton spandex, french terry, micro fleece, sherpa… depending on how warm you’d like it. For the knit cuffs you can grab a cotton spandex, ribbed knit, french terry, fleece. The hood can be made from a woven/non-stretch like the main shirt or a knit. The options for the Lumberjack include:

  • Collar and Collar Stand
  • Hood
  • Inseam pockets for both unlined and lined options
  • Chest Pockets
  • Woven Cuffs or Knit Cuffs

Lumberjack Hack- No Exposed Seams Lined with Knit Cuffs

Hi- We have a beautiful inside finish to the Lumberjack and just to show you one more way to make the inside just as beautiful as the outside I’m going to show you how to hide the knit cuff seams if you’re lining your Lumberjack. It is simple, but you need to put together your Lumberjack in a bit different order than the tutorial- which is why we have it here on the blog (to keep the tutorial nice and streamline).

You will follow the tutorial for the lined Lumberjack until you get to the Side Seams.  Don’t sew those side seams yet!! 😉

Instead, grab your knit cuff pieces. Sew your knit cuff onto your lining fabric wrist.  Right sides together, stretching the cuff to fit the wrist. Or gathering your wrist to fit the knit cuff if your cuff doesn’t have enough stretch.   Repeat with opposite wrist and knit cuff.   Now open up your Lumberjack right sides up all flat, making sure nothing is twisted.

Lay your main piece right sides down on top your lining, matching areas (back to back, fronts to fronts, sleeves on top sleeves).  Now align and sew your knit cuffs to the main (they are right sides together), again stretching the knit cuff to fit to the wrist.  Make sure you don’t get anything twisted up here.

Now align your side seams down the main and lining of your Lumberjack with right sides together.  You’ll stitch from bottom hem of main fabric, up through main armpit, up main sleeve, through knit cuff, down the lining sleeve, down the side of the lining to the bottom of the lining side seam hem.  And repeat on the opposite side seam.   (This was very difficult to take a picture of LOL).

Here’s the magic part.  Put your arm through the main sleeve and grab the knit cuff.  Pull knit cuff through main fabric sleeve until the wrist seams of both main and lining are aligned with knit cuff folded in half. TA-DA… doesn’t that always feel so cool?  

You can carefully pin seams and top-stitch the seams to keep the lining from shifting around.  I recommend taking the time to do this, otherwise you might go crazy trying to keep the knit cuff folded perfectly in half when you take on/off the Lumberjack.  

Continue on through the rest of the tutorial as normal.  I hope you like this little trick to give you no exposed seams there at the wrists!

 

Infinity :: New Pattern Release

I hope everyone is ready to whip up this quick and easy pattern and get creative tying it up! I’ve always loved this versatile style and now you can make one up that fits you or a loved one perfectly.

 

The Infinity patterns are such a fun pattern to wrap a million ways!  You can get a sleeved, tank, strapless look all in one garment. The seperate tube top option can give you a little more coverage under the straps. You can choose from several bottoms to attach it too including briefs, romper shorts, romper pants, knee length skirt and maxi skirt. The skirts can be paired with an inseam pocket and the romper with a slat pocket option.

Drafted for high stretch (4 way stretch) knit fabrics like bamboo, modal, rayon, ITY, swim, athlethic, double brushed poly, cotton spandex, etc.  The romper and skirt bottoms can be make in a 2 way stretch, but the straps are easier to tie in a 4 way stretch and the breifs need 4 way as well since they’re a tight fit.
Enjoy several videos throughout the tutorial including several ways to tie up your Infinities.

The youth sizes range from 3m – 14 and the adult sizes are XXS – Plus 5X.
