Most people will be most interested in [How to generate bespoke sewing patterns](/docs/about/site/draft/). + + + + +##### Where can I download the patterns? +It can be frustrating for visitors who come here expecting a website where they can download sewing patterns that they can't seem to find the sewing patterns to download. Almost like hiding the *download button* is some elaborate scheme to waste their time. + +I don't really know how to fix this because I cannot control people's expectations. +FreeSewing.org is _very_ different from the a website with some links to PDF sewing patterns. +So if that's what you're expecting, we almost have to de-train you before we can talk about what this site offers. + +So I'm not going to do that. I'm going to assume you are reading with an open mind. + + + +## Finding your way + +On every page of FreeSewing.org is the same header with links to the most important sections of the site: + +- [Designs](/designs/) shows our collection of parametric designs you can generate bespoke sewing patterns from +- [Documentation](/documentation/) holds all the documentation, for the website, for our designs, everything +- [Blog](/blog/) holds blog posts with updates and news about FreeSewing +- [Showcase](/showcase/) show examples from the FreeSewing community, things they have made with FreeSewing patterns +- [Account](/account/) is where you can manage your FreeSewing account +- [Support](/support/) lists your options for where to get help +- [Search](/search/) can help you find something if you're not certain where to start looking + +In addition, the header also has buttons to change the **Theme** (or color scheme) and **Language** of the website. + +On mobile, the header is at the bottom of the page and because of space constraints not all of these links are shown. However, click the *hamburger icon* to open the menu that contains all of these links. + +## Signing up or Signing in + +You can sign up for a FreeSewing account at [/signin](/signin/).
