You may have noticed that lately when I’ve used patterns from Simplicity Naaimode, a sewing pattern magazine in the Netherlands, they also have an ‘original pattern’ listed. This is because at some point (June 2019 maybe?), I decided that it would be a wonderful idea to try and figure out which patterns were actually included in all my copies of Simplicity Naaimode. This led to at least three days of relentless googling of ‘simplicity sewing pattern top/skirt/blouse/pants/dress’ in all kinds of combinations. I have now achieved 95% completeness.

Since then, every time I buy another Simplicity Naaimode, I will try to find all the patterns inside. I’ve been keeping this list in an excel file on my computer. Yesterday, I decided that it would be a good idea if I had this list accessible to not just me, but perhaps the rest of the world too. So, if you want to know which patterns you can find in copies of Simplicity Naaimode (that I own), you can check the Simplicity Naaimode pattern conversion.
