I know the URL says "free sewing patterns daily", but life has been kind of hectic, and I'm no longer able to post daily patterns like I was at first.

I hope you'll all understand and continue to visit and enjoy what I do manage to share with you here.

And email me with any free patterns you find so I can share it, too!
