Tweens are a hard group to sew for. It can be difficult to strike the right balance between styles that appeal to the kid in them but don’t make them feel like babies. Elizabeth from Simple Simon & Co. suggests using vintage patterns to sew for tweens. For inspiration, she shows some vintage patterns that she has pulled to sew clothing for her tween daughter and tells her plans for sewing them up into tween fabulousness.

There are so many patterns for tween girls from the 1920’s to modern! Many sellers have been reluctant to list them for sale until recently. Check around for some great styles!
