Thinking about making some simple play clothes. Can anyone recommend an easy to follow pattern?

most the brands do eay to sew patterns

new look patterns or butterick are usually the easiest

Check out www.patternreview.com for reviews of patterns, I find it really helps. I love Kwik-Sew's "Sewing for Baby" but it may be too advanced for a beginner -- depends on whether you want something simple to sew, or something with really detailed instructions.

Kwik Sew is good as you can glue them instead of sew if you wanted

Thanks cg & sf2 I'll check out your suggestions. Looking for something not too fiddly as my machine just does straight stitch & zigzag. Would like to improve as I'm a beginner.

Hi Chatee - could you just stick big white splodges onto a pair of black leggings and black t shirt and then make a cow mask?
