Patterns for Pirates

P4P stylish, modern, wearable patterns

P4P Spirit Month 2023

We’ve got spirit, yes we do.  We’ve got spirit, how ’bout you?!?!

I am pumped to share that we are gearing up for another round of “P4P Spirit Month“, just like we did in 2020! As soon as the calendar flips to May 1, it’s go time y’all!

What are we doing exactly?  Our team is super in love with Me Made May and the idea behind getting to know your self-made clothing, and to celebrate your sewing skills.  Big props to So, Zo…What Do You Know? for starting this social media movement a decade ago.

We decided to kick it up a notch by creating themes around each day.  Think of it like Spirit Week at school…where all of your fellow classmates dress in theme together and you get to feel the excitement and camaraderie surrounding your themed clothing efforts.  Instead of it only lasting a week, it’s the ENTIRE MONTH.  And the themes are pretty achievable, using items you already have in your closet.  You can play along as much or as little as you’d like.

DOWNLOAD THE FREE PRINTABLE CALENDAR HERE

The rules are pretty simple.

  1. Wear a new / old Patterns for Pirates clothing item that you’ve made, matching up with the daily theme.  ie: wear a purple Basic Tee on Purple Day (May 3).
    • Simple adjustments / pattern mashes are fine to share.  We just want to be able to recognize the P4P pattern you used to make your clothing item!
  2. Take a photo of yourself in the item.
    • It has to be a new photo, taken that day.  Mirror selfies with a messy room behind you are completely acceptable.  We just want to see you, in this moment, playing along with us!
  3. Share the photo on the Patterns for Pirates Facebook Group wall, in a separate post that you’ve created.
    • You must use the hashtag #P4PSpiritMonth so we can find your image. (It must be EXACT to come up in our search.)
    • Tell us what P4P pattern you used to create your look.
  4. Have fun with it!

Why play along with us?  To have fun, of course.  But also — there are some prizes involved.

We will pick three random names from all of the images that are shared using our hashtag.  (Our super pirate sleuths will make sure you’re following all of the rules and posting on the correct days.)  And those winners will be walking away with $25 in store credit to the Patterns for Pirates pattern shop!

Each day that you participate and share counts as an entry into the contest.  The winners will be random lottery winners, meaning that everyone has a chance….from a beginner who might be sewing their first P4P to a seasoned apparel sewist!

But wait.  There’s more!

Each day, we will be featuring a different P4P pattern, and for 24 hours only, that pattern will be $2 off.  No code needed.  Each featured pattern will be announced in the Facebook group at 9am EST by Crew Member Katy McKinley…so go find her posts each morning to find the daily deal!

Have more questions for us?  Send us an email ( help@patternsforpirates.com ) and we will be ready on the other side with an answer!

Sale, Giveaway + All Pattern Update | Spring 2023

Spring is full of new beginnings and the world coming back to life around us with flowers blooming + trees budding. And we often find ourselves making plans for parties, travel, weddings, graduations…the works. We thought we’d add one more little bit of fun + excitement to your spring by launching our 2023 Spring sitewide sale! (We only ever have 2-3 sales a year, so take advantage of our discounts while you can!)

But that’s not all! We’ve got a big announcement AND also have a giveaway happening alongside the sale. SO MUCH GOODNESS. Let’s talk details!

First, let’s start with talking about the sale itself.

  • You can take THIRTY PERCENT (30%) off of every single pattern and bundles of patterns on our site!
  • The code will automatically pop up for you to add to your cart, but just in case use: SPRING2023
  • The Spring Sale runs from April 3, 2023 thru April 12, 2023 @11:59pm CST.
  • Fabric for Pirates Subscriptions + Extras are excluded from the discount pricing.

We’ve got big news, y’all. HUGE. We spent an intense amount of time going through every. single. pattern. in our catalog and they’ve all been updated to include all of the current file types that we offer!

Every pattern now has Letter, A4, A0 and Projector file types with active layers!!! ::cue happy dancing::

Even the earliest patterns in our collections have received these updates. All you’ll need to do is log into your account and head to “Downloads” and any pattern you’ve previously purchased from us will automatically have these files updated and available for you to download.

**When we say “every”, there are a few patterns that don’t include A0 file types. They are typically the pattern pieces that are so small that we considered it a waste of money, paper and resources to print them on such a large piece of paper.

————

Let’s do a quick refresher of the different files + formats we offer, in case you needed it:

  • Letter – Formatted for printing on letter size paper (8.5″ by 11″). Located in the US? This is your paper size!
  • A4 – Formatted for printing on A4 size paper (8.25″ by 11.75″). Located outside of the US? This is most likely the paper size you use!
  • A0 – Formatted for wide-format printers using 36″ wide paper. We have a blog post showing how to print this size paper, if you’d like to give it a read.
  • Projector – A newer style of paperless/printless way of cutting the fabric pieces requires a special set up. Read this post to learn about the basics of using a projector for sewing.

Please keep in mind that, while even our Freebies received these updates, our free patterns will continue to have a 3o-day expiration policy on the file downloads. This policy was enacted in January 2021 and is explained in this post: IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT :: CHANGES TO FREEBIES! (tl/dr version…our free patterns expire after 30 days. If you haven’t saved them to a local device and it’s past the 30 days, you’ll simply have to go through the checkout process with the ::still free:: pattern to get access to the downloads again.)

And now onto more of the fun stuff we’ve got going on during the Spring Sale: a Contest + Giveaway! Wooooo!

HOW TO ENTER:

  • Between 04/03/23 and 04/12/23, sew a garment using a Patterns for Pirates pattern + share the finished item with us!

Spring Sale and Capsule Contest

We’re teaming up with my sister over at Made for Mermaids for another Capsule Contest!

We’ve done a few in the past and they’re a great motivator to create a small capsule that really fills out your or a loved one’s closet with purposeful makes! You can use any M4M or P4P patterns to create a 9 piece capsule.  We know creating 9 pieces is a lot, so feel free to use a couple old makes (still must be a M4M or P4P pattern) to work off of.  We’re asking for at least 5 NEW makes in the contest entry though. To help out if you need more patterns to make the perfect capsule both of us are putting a SITE WIDE SALE up!

Here is how to enter the contest: Must post with the hashtag #sewminicapsule to be eligible for the weekly and final giveaways. #madeformermaids #patternsforpirates is a plus on other platforms 💞 You can post in both our FB groups, on Instagram or tag M4M on TikTok (I haven’t been convinced to hop on that train yet ;)) .

The more places you post, the higher chance to win of course! You can start sewing anytime.

*We’ll choose 4 weekly winners on each Friday, April 2nd, 9th, 16th, and 23rd (16 total weekly chances to win).

  • Weekly winners will receive a pattern of choice from each M4M and P4P plus a $20 fabric gift card (or $20 PayPal).

*Final capsules must be posted by April 30th midnight cst for runner-up and grand prizes.

  • 2 runner ups will receive a $20 store credit to both M4M and P4P plus $50 fabric gift card (or $50 PayPal)
  • 2 grand prize winners will receive $20 store credit to both M4M and P4P plus a Brother 1034D serger OR $200 PayPal (they can choose if they already have a serger/want the PayPal)

 

And if you’ve never created a capsule before Megan created these amazing idea boards to help inspire you and just give a few great examples 🙂

We hope you have fun planning, making, sharing and wearing your new capsules! We can’t wait to see them!

-Judy and Megan

The Peg Event :: VBack Waistband Hack for the Peg Legs Update!

Welcome back to another day of The Peg Event! We hope you are loving our newest release of the Peg Legs – Colorblock Pack and update to the beloved Peg Legs, and Peg Legs – Add-On Pack!

Before we get to the main event, I’d like to remind you that we’ve got a sitewide sale happening from now until Saturday, September 12.  In addition to that, we’ve got an awesome giveaway happening, with 14 amazing prizes (and 14 amazing prize winners)!  You can read all about The Peg Event HERE.

 

Colorblock Pack Waistband Hack for the Original Peg Legs Pattern

 

So you love the new contoured waistband of the colorblock pack, but want to keep the legs quick and simple?  Here’s the hack on how to use the original Peg Legs with the new colorblock pack waistband.  You can use either the plain contoured waistband or with all the fun pockets too. 

First, assemble the original Peg Legs pattern and Colorblock pack. You will only need the Colorblock Pack Back – 1 Piece.  Aligning at the back rise and crotch curve, place back colorblock piece on the original Peg Legs pattern piece.  Note, the pattern piece should align at the mid-rise cutline as the contoured waistband is drafted to fit the lower rise and finish high rise at the natural waist.  

 

Trim the original Peg Leg pattern piece back rise or re-trace to create your new Peg Legs pattern piece. 

 

 

Cut and assemble the legs as per the original Peg Leg instructions and using the waistband instructions from the colorblock pack. I used the back pocket option and our FOE hack for the version shown below. 

 

Easy right?!? Now you can add an extra style of leggings to your closet.  I especially love how the V back fits with the booty 😉 Don’t forget to share your version, we’d love to see all your Pegs!

Here are some links to all of our FREE leggings patterns, so you can get to sewing!
