Hi there!

🎉 You’ve got 155+ sewing patterns at your fingertips—and 77 of them are officially Weekend-Approved.

That means you can finish them before Sunday night without:

• losing your mind over invisible zippers,

• crying into your serger,

• or Googling “how to bind a neckline” at 2AM. 🧵

This week’s picks are quick to prep, fun to sew, and wearable (or giftable) by Monday. Let’s go:

👚 1. Women’s Genevieve Blouse Plus (Image Above)

Time to Sew: ⏱️ 1 Hour
Skill Level: Intermediate
Why It’s Worth It: Finally—a polished, flattering blouse that doesn’t require hours of fussy construction.
Fabric Tip: Lightweight woven cotton or viscose works best.
Couture Touch: Understitch the facing and hand-press every seam for a pro finish.

👖 2. Toddler Boy’s Elastic Band Waist Twill Lil Rugged Jeans (Image Above)

Time to Sew: 🧷 60–90 Minutes
Skill Level: Intermediate
Why You’ll Love It: All the look of rugged denim, none of the fit drama. Great for play, gifts, or growing kiddos.
Fabric Tip (Betzina-style): Use lightweight denim, cotton twill, or canvas. Pre-wash to avoid shrinkage.
Bonus: Add a faux fly and patch pockets for that “store-bought who?” look.

🏃‍♂️ 3. Men’s Exercise Joggers (Image Above)

Time to Sew: 🪡 About 1 Hour
Skill Level: Intermediate
Why He’ll Wear Them Constantly: These are the kind of pants that go from weekend to work-from-home without complaint.
Fabric Tip: Mid-weight French terry or bamboo jersey is perfect.
Finishing Touch: Use a drawcord and cuffed hem to give it that designer-athleisure finish.
