The Very Easy Guide to Dressmaking

The Very Easy Guide to Dressmaking. For the beginner: make over 70 bespoke garments from just 3 basic patterns following clear, accessible instructions. With patterns and templates covering sizes (US)2 - 30. With the worldwide success of the UK’s Sewing Bee and many high profile sewing blogs . This book, aimed at the absolute beginner to the world of dressmaking provides just 3 basic patterns – a bodice, a skirt and a sleeve – from which you can adapt, mix and match to make over 70 different garments. A stumbling block with many beginners to dressmaking is getting the fit right, so one of the first things the reader will do is take their own measurements and make up a sample bodice, adjusting it to get the perfect fit. 4 different variations on bodice follow (each with a different neckline), 4 variations on the skirt (circle, gathered, box pleats and straight), and 4 types of sleeve (long, short/cap, frilled or sleeveless). The 3 patterns can be put together to create 64 different dress styles; adapted to make 4 different skirts or four tops; or the pattern for the straight skirt can be joined to any of the bodice patterns to make a straight dress. Basic techniques needed will be covered at the start of the book – including seam allowances, notches, cutting out, pinning, machine sewing and finishing. The books also covers advanced options such as pockets, collars, ruffles, buttonholes and piping. The basic sewing kit you need will also be covered, as well as fabric advice and advice on lining. Now the beginner can make a wide array of unique, bespoke garments
