Issue 38: Free Sewing Pattern

Have you sewn yourself this season’s hottest trouser shape yet – the wide-leg pant? This cute version (above) of our latest free pattern is from our lovely friends at The Fabric Store, who have a helpful review of the pattern over on their website. While you’re there, make sure you have a nosy at their fun projects for all the #memade projects you could poke a needle at (whilst you snap up any and all types of fabric to make your home sewing dreams come true). For the ultimate pair of versatile pants for all occasions, download the exclusive Peppermint pattern created for us by In The Folds to whip up your new favourite staple piece, and have a peek at #peppermintwidelegpants on Instagram to see variations from other readers using heavy cotton, prints and denim, including a cute mod for shorts! We used the smoky teal cotton drill in our version – again, that textile loveliness came from The Fabric Store, to whom we’re eternally grateful for helping us bring you these free patterns.

Without further ado, here’s a roundup of a few of our favourites from socials – head over here for the pattern to start stitching up your pair now, and don’t forget to tag us so we can see your creations!
