The Perfect Fit - Teresa Gilewska

For home sewists looking to improve accuracy and fit, The Perfect Fit by Teresa Gilewska offers a practical guide to creating and altering basic sewing patterns. Designed to help you move beyond standard sizing, it explains how to adjust ‘off-the-rack’ patterns to match exact measurements, as well as how to draft your own patterns from scratch.

Clear, detailed explanations unpack the role and meaning of each line on a pattern, building confidence as you develop core pattern-making skills. The book covers the foundations for tops, sleeves, skirts and pants, with guidance on how to alter these basics for an ideal style and fit. With 200 colour illustrations across 188 pages, it’s a considered reference for amateur dressmakers ready to take their craft further.
