5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, 31 Dec 2010
This review is from: Sew What! Skirts: 16 Simple Styles You Can Make with Fabulous Fabrics (Paperback)
This book has finally helped me take the plunge and make my own skirts. It takes you through step by step and if you want to start off with the more simple ones you can, and then move on to (gulp) putting in a zip ... Trust me, it's not as tricky as you think, I don't know why I've left it so long. It's a great book for the beginner, written in plain English and with a sense of humour. The only downside is that I am going to need a bigger wardrobe!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource!, 24 Mar 2010
This review is from: Sew What! Skirts: 16 Simple Styles You Can Make with Fabulous Fabrics (Paperback)
I'm so incredibly excited by this book!
Being a bit of an awkward shape ('pear shaped is an understatement!') making my own clothes seems like a great idea so I've bought several books on the subject hoping to revamp and expand my wardrobe (Whilst improving my sewing skills too!) This book was by far the best out of the ones that I purchased.

I'm one of those people who really hates patterns and I get far too impatient, flapping around with bits of paper, desperate to get stitching - so I was even more pleased to find that I won't need patterns to make my own skirts!

The book explains how to take your own measurements and make a variety of skirts based on them. (Perfect for my waist/hip problem!) Its laid out clearly and makes the process look incredibly easy.

I'm sure my wardrobe will be looking fresh in no time!
