Maternity Patterns Guide

We have over a dozen different maternity sewing patterns - or sewing patterns with maternity options. This guide is here to give you an overview of all these patterns to help you decide which pattern would be right for you. We have good options for sewing shirts, outerwear, dresses, underwear, and even swimsuits for youself when you're pregnant.

Each of our sewing patterns comes with a full tutorial and color photos in an easy to print PDF. The pattern pieces are all computer generated and color coded for easy cutting. The patterns include layers so you can just print off the size that you need or use your projector. Also keep in mind that we sell a wide selection of apparel fabrics at our store KnitFabric.com. We offer higher quality fabric, at better prices, with flat rate shipping. Also, to see what our customers are sewing, get help with your sewing projects, and share what you make yourself, make sure to come join us over in our Peek-a-Boo Patter Facebook Group.

The Women's Tie Front Tee is an everyday staple that includes flutter sleeves, short sleeves, long sleeves, and choice of neckband or hood. Of course, the tie front tee also includes a maternity option.

"Easy to follow maternity instructions. I purchased this in part because it included a maternity option. My cousin is expecting her first and asked me to make her some maternity clothes, but many of the patterns I had didn’t have a maternity option and, since I’d never made maternity clothing before, I didn’t want to attempt hacking a pattern on my own. This pattern was perfect and the instructions were blessedly easy to follow. Yay! Thanks, PAB!" - Gaby

 

"Easy and versatile pattern. Quick & easy, and a good fit. Sleeves are streamline but I like that as it is a tee." - Maxine

Maternity Add-On Packs

We have a few Add-On packs that you can get to upgrade other patterns to include maternity. They include patterns for another dress /shirt - the Milan and options for women's underwear and a swimsuit.

The Milan will add a touch of elegance to your wardrobe. It includes options for a high-low hem, a dress and 4 sleeve lengths. The Milan Maternity Add-On includes a gathered front panel to accomodate the growing baby.

"Quick and Easy. I made the Milan Drape as tops for my daughter and daughter-in-law. I made each top from the measurements in the pattern. One was in XXXL and I altered the hem to straight across. The other was in XS and I kept the "swoopy" hemline. Both recipients were very thrilled with the fit and style and I have requests for more. Definitely a success!" - Pat

The Uptown Undies are our popular women's underwear pattern. They include undies and a camisole with an optional shelf bra. The Uptown Undies Maternity Add-On pack inlcudes variations for a maternity camisole, maternity camisole with nursing panel, and a standard cami with nursing panel.

"Wonderful. I used this to make an Uptown Maternity Cami and the whole process was very easy. I am making a few more maternity/nursing camis and lots of simply nursing ones in all colors and patterned fabric I can get my hands on. Thank you for an awesomely priced and easy to follow pattern." - Sew

The Bahama Mama Colorblock Tankini is one of our women's swim top patterns. The Maternity Add-on includes a gathered front panel to accomodate you during pregnancy.

"So glad I didn't have to buy a RTW suit. I hate shopping for swimsuits. Hate it. When I was pregnant, I doubly didn't want to shop for a swimsuit. Luckily I had made up the non-maternity version so I purchased the add on pack and happy day! A swimsuit I could live with!... The shelf bra held the bra in place and I finally had great support in a swimsuit! I will only ever wear PAB swimsuits from now on!" - Sarah
