Can anyone recommend good sources for clothing patterns?


Question:i am an inexperienced sewer, but enjoy diy-ing items to make them one-of-a-kind...i`m especially looking 4 patterns for junior-type miniskirts & cute tops...please bear in mind, i`m not a professional seamstress, so they need to be easy to follow! thanx!

Answers:
Butterick and McCall's have cute and easy patterns, and I found the service from their website very good. And I live overseas! They have lots of pattern that are marked "easy," so look for them. http://www.mccallpattern.com/


Once in a while fabric stores move or go out of business. The patterns may be at a low low price at that time. Garage sales might have them too.
Best place I fouhd pattern was Thrift shops, Like Salvation Army and such, sometime syou could find brand new and very old patterns for 10 or 25 cents each and they could have tons and tons of them.

I have about 200 pattersn and have made about 3 items lol, waiting for the day I have time to spend and with a 4 yrs old I don't it will be happening soon.
