I am looking for Nancy’s book concerning sewing items for wheelchair bound people. I have every book that Nancy produced, had this one also but can’t find it.
Hi Janet. I’m sorry but that book is no longer being printed. We do not have any. You may check ebay or maybe even your local library might have a copy you could borrow. I’m sorry I’m not able to help!
Looking for the free bag pattern with an outside zipper pocket??? Can’t find it anywhere. Any suggestions??
Hi Barbara. I’m wondering if the bag you’re looking for is the one that was on our facebook page last night? That post was shared from Timeless Treasures. That pattern is on their website. You can find it here: https://www.ttfabrics.com/page/56/projects/ I hope this is the one you’re looking for!
Yes, that was it! Thanks so much!

I am looking for the pattern which shows how to make a hat or scarf for people undergoing chemo therapy. I made one many years ago for a person who was undergoing chemo and thought it may still be on the website.
Where can you find the patterns 30 minute doll clothes? Thanks
Hi there! Unfortunately, those patterns are all in Nancy’s books, and those books are no longer in print. Your best bet would be to check used book stores and eBay. I’m so sorry I couldn’t be of more help!
Will there be a way to get the old patterns? There was one for pillows with a trick Nanci did with squaring the corners that I would love to have. I have looked everywhere.
I have wished that Sewing With Nancy Books would once again be published and for sale. I’m sure there are up and coming sewists who would greatly benefit from the invaluable tips, trick, and knowledge that Nancy had. She was one of a kind.
I have her pattern fitting book but would like to have the dvd. Have not had luck finding.
Hi Mary. Unfortunately, all of the books and dvds are out of print. Your best bet is to search eBay or used book stores. I’m so sorry I couldn’t be of more help!
