Which sewing patterns are easiest to follow? What size paper do I need to print out your patterns? At Waves and Wild we’re here to help so take a look at our questions:
All Waves and Wild sewing patterns come with simple instructions to guide you. However if you’re feeling nervous, we’d recommend starting with Harem Pants or Lightning Leggings patterns for children. For your own wardrobe, check out our simple Cuppa Tee pattern for women or our Longboard T-shirt pattern for men.
Can you thread a sewing machine, change a stitch and make it go? Then you can tackle one of our patterns!
Not necessarily. Some patterns such as the Sandcastle Bucket Hat can be successfully sewn by hand. However we’ve designed all the patterns to be sewn using an entry level sewing machine.
Yes! Every pattern has detailed instructions with lots of helpful photos. Most of our patterns are designed so sewists of all levels can access them. We’ll always state the sewing level for a pattern in its description.
We offer three online formats:
You’ll be able to access them as soon as payment is complete. Simply save them to your computer and print!
No. Whilst an overlocker/serger would be useful for many of our patterns, it’s not essential. All the sewing can be done on a regular sewing machine.
Yes, please do! There is no license fee for selling from any of our patterns. However, we suggest that it would be kind to make a donation to the charity of your choice instead.
We would also appreciate your acknowledging that you’re using a Waves and Wild pattern somewhere in your listing, website or page. However this is not compulsory.
The ‘layers’ function allows you to select just the sizes you want when viewing and printing a pattern. To use it you must open your patterns using Adobe Reader. On the left hand side of your screen you’ll see a symbol that looks like two diamonds. Click on that and simply select the layers you require.
Whichever sizes you need, make sure to also select the ‘pattern information’ layer. This contains things such as labels and page numbers. We always recommend printing from a desktop or laptop, rather than a phone or tablet.
All our patterns are formatted for A4, letter and legal sized paper. We work hard with our testers to make sure people all over the world can easily use our patterns.
All Waves and Wild patterns use the same measurement charts. We strongly recommend you measure your intended model each time you sew. Bodies change, so guessing on their age or what you ‘usually’ buy/sew might result in disappointment.
