Well, I’ve always known about Burda, but seem to remember having the site recommended to me by a friend…or it could have been via a Craft Gossip email…

I learned about Burdastyle through ThreadBanger when they aired the episode about how to make a Tuxedo Bib. After that I was hooked. I love that the pattern was available and easy to access and use. It is the first and so far the only posted project I have on my Burdastyle account. It was a true success for me execute my daughters costume with. I will post my other projects hopefully after the holidays are over but for now i would like to say…“I love Burdastyle!”

I don’t remember at all. I think it was when my aunt told me about this wonderful magazine called Burda she used to buy in the 80’s. So I search for it and found you guys.

I am a COMPLETE beginner who decided to make my enemy (the sewing machine) my friend. I stumbled across Burda looking for the easiest possible pattern I could find… the laptop sleeve. Just have to figure out how to add the button-loop.

Nice but do they come in lefty format? I cannot tell how much it hurts to use my righty pinking shears with my southpaw.

I was looking for free sewing patterns from Google when I was first learning to sew 2 years ago.

I think I found Burda style while looking for patterns online. I couldn’t believe you could buy patterns to print at home. Burdastyle is truly one in its kind!

I learned about Burdastyle on Burda’s Italian website, someone in the community posted a comment on the large amount of free patterns to dowload here and so… here I am now!

I was looking for some sewing help one day and google led me to a tutorial here! It was so long ago I no longer remember what it was exactly!

I heard about burdastyle through word of mouth. Finding burdastyle has been great, I have been able to print off simple patterns at home, and read up on the basics of sewing under their learning section. I love burdastyle and visit the site daily.

I believe I did a search for sewing patterns because I wanted to see what else might be out there. I found your website and was amazed at all Burda’s site had to offer, support from other sewers, ideas and projects as well as great patterns! Thanks for have such a great site.
