We firmly believe that anyone can sew anything with patience and perseverance, but sometimes it helps to understand how time-consuming or challenging a pattern will be to sew. Here's how we rate the difficulty of our patterns:
Beginner (⭑): Appropriate for a true beginner with simple style lines and details, quick to sew with no closures.
Confident Beginner (⭑⭑): Achievable for beginners who are willing to learn a new skill, may include more design features and techniques (ie. zippers, buttons, facings, etc). Relatively quick to sew.
Intermediate (⭑⭑⭑): More details and style lines, may include interesting details like a zipper fly or topstitching, projects can take 6+ hours to sew.
Advanced (⭑⭑⭑⭑): Still achievable for most sewists, but patterns will include more pieces and more details, and can take 8+ hours to sew.
Challenging(⭑⭑⭑⭑⭑): Complex, skill heavy projects like tailoring and bra-making. Again, achievable for most sewists but be prepared to spend 10+ hours on these types of projects.

The Chloë Jeans are a celebration of 90s denim. Wide-legged and full-length with a mid-high rise, Chloë blends classic jeans details with a fresh (yet nostalgic) shape and proportions, featuring a contoured waistband with belt loops and traditional jeans pockets in front and back. The Chloë wide leg is created by an angled side panel inserted at the side seams with inseam pockets at the knee.
I’m so impressed and in love with Deer and Doe patterns. I’ve made a few items already. Lupine jacket pockets were tricky for the first timer but there are instruction with pictures available online. The fit is always reliable, easy to adjust to my form. The only improvement I’d like is plus sizes to spoil my mum in law.
