About African Woman

Ask for beautiful and you get a hundred near-misses; African Woman is one of the few that answers the question as asked. Nobody has reviewed it, which we do not hold against a new file — but it does mean the preview is the only honest evidence. The save count is still small at 63, so read this as our opinion and not a consensus.

Landmark designs are usually line art. They read best on plain, light fabric where nothing competes with the outline. We keep it filed mentally under african woman, which is the use that needs the least adjusting afterwards. Open it big before you commit. At thumbnail size every pattern on this shelf looks equally good, which is the problem with thumbnails.

If you came in looking for african, embroidery, embroidery design and feminine, you are in the right place — the listing carries all of those, which is the clearest sign the designer built it for that job rather than retitled it afterwards. It is shelved with the rest of the around the world embroidery designs, and that is the quickest way to see what else sits in the same register before you settle on this one. The neighbouring searches are around-the-world — worth a look if this particular pattern is close but not quite it.

  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.
