    Other than very basic skirts, and maybe tops, I don't think you'll find much for free online, as it's a very involved formula to create a pattern for a more fitted skirt, etc.

    I'm in the middle of writing patterns up to list on ebay and a pattern site Which should be lots of fun. But of course, i'm in relapse with bronchitis/pneumonia again..... UGH. So I've spent my afternoon laying on the couch praying I don't cough again as it hurts everywhere. So I'll continue working on it, slowly.
