Terms & glossary

The growing collection of sewing patterns, whether printed or digital, that a sewist has purchased or downloaded but not yet actually sewn up.

A joking acronym for 'project half done,' describing the pile of unfinished sewing projects that many sewists accumulate over time.

Short for PatternReview.com, a long-running online community where sewists post detailed reviews of commercial and indie sewing patterns before others buy them.
