I originally made this list for my brother and his wife. They both just started Grad school and are taking a pattern making class together and because I’m almost done with my Fashion Design degree I thought I’d share all the things I use in sewing and pattern making, be prepared, it’s a lot, but it’s only a fraction of what I actually have. I will probably add more to it later, but for now here are the basics.

Ultra Fine Glass Head Pins (silk pins)

6″ Clear Grid Ruler

12″ Clear Grid Ruler

18″ Clear Grid Ruler

Seam Gauge

Colored Pen Set
