Sew-A-Softie is an initiative to encourage both adults and children to give sewing a go. Some of you will have remembered mentioning it in my star softie tutorial from the beginning of July, but there's more! Tons of other sewing enthusiasts just like me, we all teamed up to each make a new, free softie tutorial for you to use. Isn't that awesome! So here I am to show you where you can find those. A whole month of new softie patterns, and this is not even all of them yet!

So, here is my list of fun and easy softie sewing tutorials, and some come with free PDF patterns (mine, too!) I nicely arranged them in groups of three, so it's easier for you to select your favorites 🙂 Check them out here:
