About this Item

A handbook of sewing processes and a basic course in dressmaking, it shows you how to: Plan your clothes to suit yourself - and your lifestyle. Choose a pattern that does the most for your figure.

Avoid the usual amateur's pitfalls, such as uneven stitching and wavy hemlines. Both metric and imperial mesaurements are give throughout, to avoid the tiresomeness of consulting a conversion chart.
