Synopsis

Created by The Great British Sewing Bee Season 2 contestant Jenniffer Taylor, this book sets out a practical approach to building a wardrobe through customisation, upcycling and making garments from scratch. It begins with ideas for transforming unloved clothing into fresh outfits, then moves into decorative techniques including doilies, tassels, tie-dyeing and block printing.

Later sections cover measuring yourself, creating patterns and constructing a range of pieces, including dresses, skirts, tops, trousers and a coat. With 420 colour illustrations and a clear, no-fuss style, it is presented as an accessible starting point for beginners.
