"How did you learn to sew?" It’s a simple question, but one that often sparks fond memories and shared stories. From following Burda patterns and giving new life to old styles, to childhood nights in matching checkered pyjamas, hand-knitted socks from grandma, or a lovingly stitched coat from an aunty - our first steps into sewing often begin with people we cherish.
TAUKO No.15 looks back at these beginnings, weaving together moments of nostalgia with the many ways we learn today—whether through books, blogs, or video tutorials. This summer edition is full of thoughtfully crafted dresses, trousers, and shirts - each piece a reflection of the maker’s path and the inspiration that got them started.
Every pattern featured includes full-size printed templates and detailed instructions, designed to be approachable for a wide range of sewing abilities. Sizes span from 31" (78 cm) to 57.5" (146 cm) bust, championing inclusive and body-positive making.
TAUKO is an award-winning independent magazine for sewists across the globe, available in both print and digital formats. Each edition includes a curated mix of sewing patterns, interviews, features, expert columns, and sustainable sewing inspiration contributed by creatives from around the world.
