About Colette Patterns

At Colette Patterns, our goal is to make sewing patterns that are exceptional in every way.

Founded in 2008 by designer Sarai Mitnick, Colette Patterns was born out of a love of both sewing and the independent spirits of creative women everywhere. Our patterns are designed for the crafty lady who loves design details, is inspired by vintage style, and wants clothing that’s made just for her. Like our grandmothers who spent their evenings constructing their beautiful clothes, these sewing patterns are our canvases for everyday creativity.

The designs themselves are often inspired by the past, but constructed to be modern and wearable. Each is easily adapted in a range of versatile fabrics, are available in modern sizes 0 through 18, and have practical details such as pockets.

Each pattern comes packaged in a beautifully printed booklet with fine linen-textured cover and stitched binding. Instructions are clearly illustrated, and each includes a glossary of sewing terms and special area for the sewist’s own notes.

Colette Patterns are made with love in Portland, OR.
