i'm looking at making my own clothes and need some easy patterns to follow i want to make trousers,skirts and dresses
does anyone know of any that would be good I hope someone can help me
Hi Becky, how do you find learning easiest? Is it helpful if there are video tutorials to follow along with? Or are you happy with written instructions with good diagrams or photos?
i find videos to follow along with are better for me
Perhaps try Tammy Handmade or Friday Pattern Company as they create free video tutorials for their patterns on YouTube which would be really helpful
Tilly and the Buttons are great for beginners - and I have a video tutorial series on here for the Samara top which is a great first pattern.

thanks hayley will have a look at them
I always find the beginner Tilly and the Buttons really helpful and they hold your hand throughout the makes Becky - this is how I got into sewing - enjoy it, it's a lovely hobby x
Beginner here too. I have recently finished a pattern from Tammy Handmade which was really easy to follow, I would recommend having a look to see if you find it useful. Best of luck x. tammyhandmade.com
thanks Netty i will have a look
Hi Becky
I'm also audhd. I like Cashmerette, loads of the patterns have sew alongside and I love that they have different cups sizes for bigger busts. I joined as a club member years ago and they have a library of videos about fitting and how to do tricky things and a ton of patterns you can access as a member free to download.
thanks jayne h i will have a look at their site
