Awesome. I wish I were a bit younger and slim so these styles would be appropriate for me. I probably could get away with the caftan and nightgown even now. It's so neat how one could make clothes exactly suited to one's individual size and taste, so easily.

Though no prior knowledge, or a machine, is at all necessary, if one has had a sewing unit in middle school or watched Grandma sew, one will be even more able to make use of this book. And unlike many modern crafting books, this one really is aimed at helping the reader save money. These are honestly wearable clothes that can be made with bargain rack fabrics, not artsy-fartsy projects.

Highly recommended to all do-it-yourself-ers with energy and time, especially the plethora of show more under-employed we have right now in the US. show less
