I am a home-sewing enthusiast , who gets frustrated with her lack of ability to finish garments to a professional standard. I am in need of guidance to complete a range of finishes ie collars, cuffs, plackets and buttonholes to name a few. Thanks Anne

I like Chanel, for designing the classic Jacket, it has stood the test of time and is a must for every wardrobe. She considered functionality with practicality. The Jacket is also easy to replicate, as a basic pattern and is a good pattern to add add your own design on ie couture techniques etc.

I love all Sandra Betzina books, she makes practical sense and takes the fear and anxiety out of simple or complicated problems.
I usually read Fast Fit and Fabric Savvy.
I then follow up with Clare Shaffer, Coutour Sewing Techniques.

Wonderful, Thanks a million. Can't wait for the next part.

I love this jacket. What a great idea using the beads to give weight. THanks for posting it.

Love the work, Did you use red wine to dye it?? And how did you get it to stay.
I love this dress. Good luck,

Love the work, where do you get the kits? bet you get lots of comments.
