Hello! We’re Manuela and Fabiana, the team behind Friedlies. Our goal is to create patterns that embody a timeless, feminine style that feels both elegant and wearable. We started Friedlies because we didn’t see ourselves represented in traditional pattern brands, and we wanted an alternative to the uncertain quality of Etsy patterns. Our designs are crafted to flatter your silhouette, bringing you pieces that you’ll feel comfortable and confident wearing. Thank you so much for supporting us - it truly means the world!

At Friedlies, our patterns are crafted with elegance and simplicity in mind, making it easy for you to create beautifully fitting garments - without the stress of complex instructions. Each design is timeless and stylish, giving you pieces you’ll cherish for years to come. We blend the best of current trends with years of pattern-drafting expertise, so you can enjoy the quality and reliability of established pattern makers, infused with our fresh, studio-driven approach to design.

Yes! Each pattern includes clear, detailed instructions designed to guide you through every step with ease. Our instructions include a sewing booklet with step-by-step instructions, close up sketches as well as extensive YouTube tutorials to each pattern. Our goal is to make sewing stress-free and enjoyable, so you’ll feel supported throughout your project.

At the moment, our patterns are available only in digital format (A4/A0/US Letter), but we’re excited to announce that physical patterns are coming soon! To stay updated, follow us on social media or subscribe to our newsletter for the latest news.

We design patterns for all skill levels, from beginner to advanced. You’ll find straightforward instructions for simpler projects and more detailed guidance on advanced ones. Friedlies is all about enjoying the process, no matter your experience.

Feel free to reach out to us anytime on social media, and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible. You’re also welcome to email us at official@friedlies.com - we aim to respond within 24 hours.

We are a very small pattern studio and do not have the capacity to do monthly releases. We aim to release new patterns seasonally, and each one is crafted with care to reflect the elegance and style you expect from Friedlies. Keep an eye on our social media and newsletters for the latest updates and releases!

Our patterns come in a wide range of sizes and are crafted with thoughtful proportions for various body types. We aim to ensure everyone feels comfortable and beautiful in their creations, with clear guidance on adjustments as needed. If you think we can do better, we are always happy to onboard new brand ambassadors who test our pattern and give us helpful feedback during the design process.
