Start with core skills, from threading a sewing machine, to understanding sewing patterns, and measuring yourself accurately, and then once you've mastered the basic techniques, learn how to put them to the test, and sew your first garment - one you will love to wear, because it's designed for bodies just like yours. By the end of this book, you'll be able to sew clothes with ease and confidence, in any style or fabric, that fit and express your unique style"--Publisher's description. 650 0 $a Machine sewing $x Technique. 650 0 $a Sewing $x Technique. 650 0 $a Plus-size women's clothing. 650 6 $a Couture $x Technique. 655 7 $a Instructional and educational works. 655 7 $a Patterns (Instructional works). 941 $a 2 952 $l CQPE926 $d 20240503010819.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20240119022912.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DF1CB578B69811EE8CC0EC492AECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b BUPInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
