Check the CHANGELOG if you'd like get all the nitty-gritty detail. For this blog post, I'll focus on what you are probably going to be most interested in: New designs. + +This release brings 5 new designs to our catalog, so let's dive right in: + +## Bob is a bib + +We've been using the construction of a Bib pattern in our [pattern design tutorial](https://freesewing.dev/tutorials/pattern-design) for years. Yet we never added the pattern to our catalog. An oversight that's been corrected now, and we now carry [Bob the bib](/designs/bob) in our collection. + +Perfect for babies and grown-ups who are messy eaters alike, since you can make Bob in any size. + +## Hi is a shark + +It's been kinda hard to contain our excitement about this, but hear me out: A while ago rumours started swirling that IKEA would discontinue it's [BLÅHAJ](https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/blahaj-soft-toy-shark-90373590/) stuffed shark, which is a universally beloved toy. + +The FreeSewing community wasn't just going to idly stand by while the worlds friendliest shark ran the risk of becoming extinct. A conservation effort gained momentum, and ultimately Wouter matter-of-factively dropped the first **Hi** pictures in our Discord. + +Oh, and you should know that [Hi](/designs/hi) can be made big or small. The patterns scales up to a 5m shark. What are you waiting for? + +## Lucy is a tie-on pocket + +We've seen a number of historical designs recently, specifically from Starf. This time around, it's SeaZeeZee who added [Lucy](/designs/lucy) which is a pattern for a tie-on pocket. + +It's a quick make for cosplay, historical re-enactment, or for all those dresses that don't come with pockets. + +## Noble is a body block with prince(ss) seams + +Wouter (of Hi fame) has another contribution in this release: Noble is a princess seam body block. Blocks tend to be undervalued but they are the foundation that other designs are built on, so having a new body block with prince(ss) seams is very exciting. + +## Unice is for undies + +[Unice](/designs/unice) is a variant of [Ursula](/desgns/ursula), another undies pattern. It was designed by Anna who describes it as *the undies for those with significant rear estate*. + +It has a few changes and tweaks in comparison to Ursula, and is specifically intended to fit *any* body. So if you're rear estate mogul, try these out. + +
