Dear Sewing Superstar,
Summer’s a great time to be outdoors with friends and family — relaxing, soaking up the sun, and enjoying good food and good conversation. If you’re like me, you also like to keep your hands busy, and summer is no exception! I always like to have a project in mind for what I’ll make next, even if I’m in the middle of another project. The sewing never stops in my house! If you’re looking for your next sewing inspiration, you’ll find it in our We Like Sewing Sew Your Dream Dress collection!
Sew Your Dream Dress is our newest collection of fashion-forward sewing patterns! From stylish summer looks to chic winterwear, the dress sewing patterns in this collection were hand-picked by our editors so that you can find your dream dress, no matter the season. Included in this collection are: Addie Casual T-Shirt Dress Pattern, Astoria Cowl Neck Dress Pattern, Savannah Button-Down Sundress Pattern, Calla Upcycled Sheet Spring Dress, Spearmint Knit Wrap Dress Pattern and Primrose Shirred Dress Pattern. Find the perfect dress to compliment your style and wardrobe in this collection of dress patterns to sew.
Let’s start with the Calla Upcycled Sheet Dress. Show off your shoulders in a flirty, lightweight dress for spring with this upcycled sewing project! Made using an upcycled bedsheet, this fabulous dress tutorial features an off-the-shoulder neckline and hits around the knee, making it a fun silhouette for warm and sunny weather. This pattern is recommended for intermediate to advanced beginners, making it a simple dress design that will help you expand your skill set. Skip a trip to the fabric store and raid your linen closet with this stylish upcycled sewing DIY.
Or you can whip up a classically chic, lightweight sundress for hot summer days with this Savannah Button-Down Sundress sewing pattern. Recommended for advanced beginners, this popular sundress pattern features a front button placket and princess seams on the bodice. This design can be made in light to medium weight fabrics and would look stylish in denim, twill or cotton sateen.
Inject some romantic charm into your wardrobe with this stunning Shirred Dress pattern. Inspired by the trendy nap dress, this lovely dress design is perfect for light to medium weight fabrics, making it a great spring to summer garment for your wardrobe. This dress pattern features thick straps, a shirred bodice, and tiered maxi skirt, so it’s a comfortable and breezy dress for warm weather. Pair this dress with your favorite pair of sandals and a stylish clutch for a comfy and chic seasonal look!
There is still more in our new Sew Your Dream Dress collection! Of course, we have included the classics. The Addie Casual T-Shirt Dress, designed by Lauren Merciris, this must-have dress pattern is comfy and stretchy, making it ideal for jersey or other stretch fabrics, and can be made with raglan or roll-up raglan sleeves. Casual chic has never looked so effortless! This t-shirt dress pattern is sure to become one of your wardrobe essentials, so make multiples in lengths from mini to midi to fill your closet.
Every closet needs a wrap dress or two. We love the Spearmint Knit Wrap Dress Pattern, from designer Kimberly Payne. This casual design is perfect for the office or a lazy day exploring your favorite bookstore and joining a friend for coffee. This dress is chic, comfy, and features a gorgeous vibrant green knit fabric. The wrap dress is secured by both a tie closure and hook and eye at the waist. Pair it with boots and tights for a winter outing, or enjoy a special date night with a strappy pair of heels.
And we know tights and boots season is coming, which is why we’re so excited to share this handkerchief hem dress pattern. Stay cozy and look ultra chic with the Astoria Cowl Neck Dress Pattern that’s sure to be your new go-to fall outfit.. Featuring a drapey cowl neck and loose, flowy fit, this autumn dress pattern is designed to be made in rich fall colors like camel, burgundy or chocolate and can be sewn in soft fabrics like French terry and rib jersey.
