About African Girl

This is the one we reach for when the request is african american. African Girl keeps it simple, which is why it sits here rather than in the reserve pile. Only 10 people have saved it so far, so this is our pick rather than the crowd's. The review tab is empty. That is normal here and not a warning, but it does put the preview in charge.

Folk motifs carry meaning where they come from. If a design is going on a gift, a line about the pattern's origin is worth more than another colour. We keep it filed mentally under african embroidery, which is the use that needs the least adjusting afterwards. One thing we always do and you should too: open the preview full size. A thumbnail hides exactly the detail that decides whether african american is really what you are getting.

Search for afro lady design, afro lady with braid, afro woman design and american embroidery and this is the file those words land on; they are all the same pattern, filed under whichever phrase you happened to type. The same shelf also answers to around-the-world, so widen the search there before giving up on it. Its home here is Around the World Embroidery Designs — open that shelf if you would rather compare a few before choosing.

How to use this pattern

  1. Download the files from Creative Fabrica and unzip them into one folder.
  2. Print the pattern sheets at 100% — no scaling, no «fit to page» — and check the test square with a ruler before you cut anything.
  3. Tape the sheets together on the printed match marks, then cut the pieces out and keep the instruction sheet next to your machine.
  4. Sew a quick version in cheap fabric first if the shape is new to you; the second one is always the one you keep.
