Free Plus Size Patterns (and my unpopular opinions on them)

Описание: Today we are discussing free plus size patterns. I have some unpopular opinions on them, but know it is coming from a place of trying to set you up for success in sewing and not go through unnecessary pain over duds! I will be sharing a bunch of good free patterns I did find from reputable pattern companies and a few of them that I have actually made! I also give you some viable cheap alternatives. Also I am sorry the word "banger" ever came out of my mouth; I don't know what came over me.

Videos I mentioned:

So I found out there were issues with You.Make, formally Rebecca Page about a week after I published this video. As far as I could tell, the site was up and down for a bit, but now it is permanently closed. I added chapters to the video, so feel free to skip that section. It closed shop without any warning to customers, so this is a good reminder to always download your patterns and back them up. There is a really interesting article on what happened here: https://craftindustryalliance.org/reb...
