Selvage Designs

At Selvage Designs, our goal is to bring you modern and functional sewing patterns that you’ll keep in your stash for years to come. Most of our designs feature simple lines with a surprising detail – a unique way of arranging the pieces, an unexpected cutout or a fun construction detail. Many of our patterns are designed for knits for maximum comfort and wearability.

Selvage Designs Foxglove Tank Sewing Pattern

FOXGLOVE is a racerback tank with a hi-low hem and very subtle, scoop V-neck. It works great for knits OR wovens, and is easily sewn up so you can get to that barbecue looking fabulous in your new top!

This pattern comes with sizes 00 through 20. This is a beginner level sewing pattern. Suggested fabrics are light to medium weight knits such as cotton jersey, cotton lycra or ponte de roma or a lightweight woven such as crepe de chine, rayon challis or peach skin.

Delia Creates 

Hi! I'm Delia Randall. I'm the face behind Delia Creates Patterns and the blog deliacreates.com. After blogging for about three years, I tried my hand at pattern making and fell in love with creating my own designs! I love clean lines, and classic silhouettes with modern appeal. I appreciate practical beauty and strive to incorporate that in all my designs.

Delia Creates Pleated Pencil Skirt Sewing Pattern

Named for the closed kick pleat it sports in the back. This high-waisted, knee length pencil skirt gently hugs the hips, slightly forgives the waist, and tapers in at the knees to create a flattering yet modest silhouette. It zips up at the side with an invisible zipper and is fully lined, giving you a professional looking finished skirt. This pattern comes with sizes 2 through 18. This is a confident beginner/intermediate level sewing pattern. Suggested fabrics are light to medium weight wovens such as crepe de chine, rayon challis, peach skin, denim or wool.
