Have you ever made a garment from a commercial pattern, only to discover it doesn't fit properly? This book takes a different approach. Instead of trying to fit yourself into a standard size, you'll learn how to create simple garments using your own measurements. Whether you're petite, tall, curvy, slim or somewhere in between, these projects are designed to fit the person making them. Inside you'll find instructions for: - A classic wrap-around skirt - Relaxed fit dungarees - A simple crossover tie-belt dress - A versatile bog jacket made from a single square of fabric - A tiered skirt and matching top The projects are suitable for anyone with basic sewing experience. Two garments are drafted onto paper first, while the remaining projects are measured and marked directly onto the fabric. You'll also find ideas for adapting each design to create different looks, plus a practical guide to adding useful pockets to your finished garments. No complicated sizing charts. No grading between sizes. Just simple, adaptable clothes made to fit you.
