View A has a round neckline and full length sleeves. The pattern description reads: “Close fitting pull-over tops have self fabric neckbands. The countryside crafty aesthetic seems to appeal more to the middle of the country (I've got family there, so don't hate) than it does to either of the coasts.I’ve finally been successful in breaking my sewing slump! I did it with Kwik Sew 3766, a “Kwik Start, Learn-to-Sew” top pattern. But not very much of some of the zanier designs. I mean, holiday stockings and home dec sorts of items, sure. Actually, I don't know if I've ever seen anyone make any of them, ever. I don't know anyone who does the sorts of craft patterns seen in the catalogues. It seems like most people who sew make garments, costumes, bags, or quilts, and people who consider themselves “crafters” typically use many other materials and only sew occasionally. I mean, I assume someone is buying them, otherwise I can't see them making so many of these patterns, but I don't actually know anyone who does make them.

But to answer your question, I honestly don't really know. You know, I have the same reaction when I see the Burda crafts section.
#KWIK SEW PATTERNS FREE#
So – what are your thoughts? See anything worth getting? Or are the Kwik Sew patterns a total snoozefest, especially in light of some of the awesome designs we’ve been getting from other brands this fall? Feel free to discuss in the comments! Especially since I feel like I’ve already got similar patterns in the stash. I’m really digging that one tunic top, but the rest of it… is passable. Or about how they retired, like, 85% of their athletic design patterns. Or even continue my rant about how sad I am to see Kwik Sew going from fast, easy clothing patterns to assorted craft items. Sorry to say I’m feeling too lazy to comment on the rest of it. Or it looks like your dress got caught in the elevator. Ummm, what? Then it becomes this sort of odd K4082 – This peplum dress was sort of a “meh” for me when I first saw it, Sort of reminds me of things my Skipper dolls wore in the early 90s. K4075 – This looks like a great man’s shirt pattern. Interesting addition to the pattern, and not something I’ve seen elsewhere. K4072 – Normally I skip all the PJ patterns, but this racerback slip is an K4087 – I had problems seeing the design features past the crazy bright prints…īut the basic style lines are actually quite nice. So it might be a nice way for someone to try a more complex project. It actually looks like it wouldn’t be too complicated to sew either, K4071 – The design lines on this jacket are rather nice. If you (like me) already have several in your stash. K4069 – I like this turtleneck top, but it is another pattern I think is skip-able I like this, but it is very similar to recent Burda releases, K4084 – Another knit top with longer tunic option. (Also, color choice + hair style makes me think Elsa. K4085 – I actually really like this tunic top, which also comes with an options for sleeves. However, I’m not sure if I really like the way the gathering is looking in the photos. K4081 – This dress was the first on the product page that caught my eye. You can see the details better in the sleeveless version. K4068 – This dress isn’t overly complicated, but I like it. There are a few new adult clothing patterns that are worth looking at though: (Granted, I’ve had a very busy few days, but, still.) Anyway, as with most of the recent Kwik Sew releases, a majority of the new patterns are for kids/crafts/baggy tunics that I’m not interested enough to bother posting, though I will admit the Ellie Mae girls dresses are sort of adorable. This happened a few days ago, so obviously I was really motivated to get the post up.
