Your Skirt, Your Way - Jenniffer Taylor

From Jenniffer Taylor of The Great British Sewing Bee, Your Skirt, Your Way is a practical paperback guide for designing and sewing skirts without relying on shop-bought patterns. Using just four body measurements, you’ll learn how to draft your own block and toile, then build on it to create a skirt that reflects the details you actually want to wear.

Clear step-by-step photography and easy-to-follow instructions show how to choose a shape and customise the finish, from A-line, flared, gathered, pencil and pleated styles to design elements such as pockets, zips, buttons and yokes. A ‘recipe’ section at the back provides 10 inspiring skirt options to help you get started, before you begin mixing and matching techniques to develop your own variations.
