From Booklist
There are all sorts of shortcuts and techniques that will make clothes fashioning simple, say the editors of Threads magazine. If grades in Home Ec 101 threatened entrance into college, choose another craft. But for those adept with machines, needles, and thread, these 17 articles compiled from past issues provide some unusual yet casual designs and ideas to copy. Leather piping and sequins embellish a vest, and leftover material is transformed into rather elegant jackets. There are tips and patterns for working with unusual fabrics, such as spandex blends, knit yardage, and melton. Technical how-tos are also covered in careful detail for such aspects as pleats for straight skirts, zip-out linings for outerwear, and flat-fell seams. Barbara Jacobs
