My partner wants to share a sewing pattern on the internet somewhere. She's not trying to sell it, just have it in a place where people can get it. Is there a thingiverse/printables type place for sewing stuff (that is also free to post things on, and is also not "run your own website")?
things that are not this:
- freesewing.org (neat, but does not appear to be a place intended for people to upload their own things)
- artisans.coop, etsy, other similar sites (these are storefronts, she literally just wants to share a file, the same thing 3d printing people do with thingiverse)
- a git forge (I... guess you *could* do that? is that a thing people do in practice?)

in reply to rag. Gustavino Bevilacqua • •@rag. Gustavino Bevilacqua @emily, blinkenlight witch I'm afraid most of the patterns I can think of were posted on the author's website or similar contexts
including those mentioned on sozowhatdoyouknow.blogspot.com… (I read the latest article from that blog today, just after I had seen this post :) )
and honestly, these days I'd recommend *also* posting them on one's own website, in case any platform they are on gets enshittified, but it would be great to have some place like that to both post and *look for* patterns.

Seems like @emily is looking for a place to dump a PDF or something. That's not what FreeSewing does (my life would be so much easier if it was 😂 ) .
Emily, if your partner ever wants to get into parametric design, refer them to our contributor docs: freesewing.dev/

Unknown parent • • •@jeremiah threadloop.app/patterns was the most promising thing to come from this thread (it lets you sort by only free things, looks like around 10% are free). But it doesn't appear to store patterns itself, just links to patterns.
I am having to resist the usual nerd urge to show up in a community I'm not otherwise part of like "hi I made you some software, you're welcome"

Unknown parent • • •Just correcting the record here since Ravelry was a bad suggestion on my part.
I asked my partner and basically she said that she has yet to find anything like what was described for sewing. She purchases most of the sewing patterns she finds on Etsy or directly through the pattern makers website. She also said she just has encountered very few free sewing patterns beyond simple projects and the simple projects are often blog posts.
FWIW she did ask me to send it to her whenever it does get posted.
