You can also check out this blog post here by Lizz at A Good Wardrobe for a really extensive list. ------ Wendy Wellington, New Zealand

I've never tried their patterns and don't know about shipping, but you can see realisations on the blog "Deer and Doe Addicts" +I think that there are some reviews here on PR. ------ Meet me at rosemiracles.wordpress.com

They are a nice hybrid of vintage inspired but modern looking. They are an e-company so all the patterns are available pdf. I'm not a fan of vintage looks but I do like Victory patterns. http://www.victorypatterns.com/

You can go to the sewing reviews and filter for any company that has been added to the list (usually because someone wrote a review). That's how I discovered Marfy patterns, Trudy Jansen, jalie, and Hot Patterns for example. There are some, like brand-new Cake Patterns (only one pattern so far), that I haven't tried yet but look intriguing after seeing what someone else created using them. Have fun! ------ Fictionfan
