Packed full of information on basic sewing techniques, this is an ideal book for the beginner as well as an enduring work of reference for those who already have sewing skills.
The techniques cover all aspects of sewing, from dressmaking to soft furnishings. Types of fabrics are discussed and illustrated with information on what they are best used for; dressmaking patterns are described in detail with information on how to use them and what the various instructions mean. The techniques cover both hand stitches and machine stitches, how to measure properly, using paper patterns, how to stitch seams, hems, sleeves, collars, cuffs, zips and much more.
A collection of 15 projects containing very easy patterns makes the job of making your own clothes as simple as possible. There are patterns for stylish items, such as a strapless bustier top, trousers, and evening skirt as well as simple dressing-up ideas for children. The projects show that by adding or amending the patterns you can create a whole range of garments.
This comprehensive book contains all the detail and all the ideas you need to help you make your own individual clothes.
