My story

Dear Readers,

Hi there, and welcome!
It’s truly an honor to have you here.

If you’ve found your way to this little corner of the internet, chances are you’re a sewing lover—just like me—on the hunt for free, high-quality sewing patterns. You’ve come to the right place!

From Big Brands to Big Dreams

Before starting Tiana’s Closet, I spent over a decade working as a professional pattern maker in Vietnam. You know those clothing labels that say “Made in Vietnam” from brands like Zara, H&M, Mango, or Massimo Dutti? I was part of the team behind those garments—turning designers’ visions from Europe and North America into production-ready patterns. My job was precise, technical, and deeply creative.

In 2018, I made a big move—immigrating to Canada and starting a new chapter. But I couldn’t leave behind my passion. Instead of making patterns for someone else’s designs, I wanted to create my own. So I opened a small studio in Vancouver and began offering custom-made clothing. And in the quiet moments in between client projects, I rediscovered my favorite part of the job: designing, experimenting, and watching flat sketches come to life in 3D form.

High-Quality Patterns, the Professional Way

Every pattern you’ll find on Tiana’s Closet is created with the same care and precision I used in my industry days. I work with Optitex and Clo3D, professional pattern-making softwares that simulates garments on 3D models. This means I can fine-tune the fit before the first stitch is made—saving you time, money, and reducing fabric waste.

Plus, I use updated body measurement data that’s widely adopted by global fashion companies, so you can count on accurate, well-fitting patterns every time.

Practical Designs for the Whole Family

Here at Tiana’s Closet, you’ll find a growing library of free sewing patterns for women’s, men’s, and children’s wear. Many of them are inspired by real-life needs—what my family wears, what my clients request, or simply what brings me joy to create. Most are beginner-friendly, with clear instructions and practical silhouettes, so you can enjoy the process whether you’re just starting out or a seasoned maker.


Thank you for visiting and supporting my passion project. I hope my patterns bring a little extra joy to your sewing journey.

Happy sewing,
Tiana
