Customer Questions and Answers
Hello, Do you think I can make the Abbey long sleeve duster with your bleached linen IL020 or IL030?
F|S Team
Hello, Yes, you can make the Abbey long sleeve with the Il020 or IL030 for a lightweight duster :)
Hi I was wondering why none of your patterns have a specific linen weight recommendation? Even something along the lines of 'the garment pictured was made using our .......... linen in ...oz weight......in ......... colour!' I have bought your linen fabric before and while it was lovely it was more transparent than I expected.

Hello and thank you for your feedback. All of our pattern booklets list the fabrics our patterns were sampled in and we are working to get back the feature which suggested fabrics for each of our patterns on this site. If you would like to know specific fabrics for any of our patterns, please email us :)
What width elastic do you recommend for this pattern? I just glanced quickly, but couldn't find it. Thanks
F|S Team
1 1/2" wide elastic is recommended for the pants waistband.
Hi. I have a few questions about the Abbey capsule patterns. I fall into the Size 4 category, but I'm just 5" 1and 3/4." Would it be possible to size these patterns down to a very petite length? Also, should I choose the pattern size to buy based on the finished garment size or the cut size? I prefer to wear more form fitting clothes; I'm inclined to choose a size 2. Would that be appropriate? Thank you for taking the time to answer.

Hello, Yes these patterns can be lengthened and shortened for a range of heights. As for choosing your best size, please see our helpful article in our help center, or contact us directly with your body measurements and our in-house seamstress can help you find your best size.

Hello, Unfortunately our patterns are only available in the paper format at this time.
I wanted this pattern specifically for the wrap top. When first I got the pattern out, I looked at the pattern pieces and thought this would be really challenging. Thanks to the guide booklet that came with the pattern, however, the top went together without a hitch. I used the midweight linen for the top, but cut the bias binding from some tropical print challis from my stash. The assembly was much easier than I anticipated thanks to the carefully drafted pattern.
I was looking for a good-looking unisex pants pattern and this fit perfectly! The drape on these pants is very fashionable. I used IL020 Black for maximum comfort. These are the perfect pandemic pants - comfy stylish loungewear that functions equally well as both pajamas and wearing out to dinner, once that becomes a thing again. Move over, frumpy sweatpants!
One garment that came to mind that would serve as the ideal foundation to build a layer-able, breastfeed-able look was the Abbey cardigan. I chose the longest length with short sleeves and the braided wrap belt. Sure, I could have saved a little time by making the flat belt, but what type of last minute sewist with the clock ticking away would I be if I didn't choose the slightly more labor intensive option? Besides, I work more efficiently under pressure.
Amazing pattern! Easy-to-sew cardigan, I love so much my Abbey!
