If you like to sew skirts, yet hate having to buy patterns, this is THE book you need. Marvelous that I can make a skirt for both myself and my daughter without having a tissue pattern! Kudos to the author! (

good for basic sewing terms and techniques

geraldinefm | Nov 18, 2010 |

I've made two skirts from this book so far, and they were both dead easy. You need basic knowledge of how to use a sewing machine to use this book, but everything else is laid out clearly. I especially appreciate the instructions for creating a pattern based on your own measurements: I've never heard this described so clearly before.

There are so many more ideas I want to try from this book! I can tell I'll be consulting it for years to come. (
