Quadrille Publishing Ltd Breaking the Pattern: A Modern Way to Sew

I like this so much. Really useful. .

Un libro muy completo que cubre muchas modificaciones habituales para poder hacer tu propia ropa y que te quede genial, también indica que arrugas indican que necesitas esa modificación. Incluye varios patrones básicos para trabajarlos. Aún no he hecho ninguno del libro, solo he usado modificaciones para otro patrones. Lo recomiendo.

There are pattern templates (9 sizes) included for a variety of items, including a bag, dresses, pants, blouses, etc. You will need to have tracing paper to use the templates. The best paper is found at an art supply store. The templates allow you to mix and match different features to make your own creations. You will only be limited by your own imagination. Instructions are clear, but the print is small. NOTE: Seam allowance for most of the patterns is 3/8 -- it isn't obvious, but early on in the book (page 6) this is specified. Very easy to miss and will make a big difference in sizing if you assume that it is 5/8, which is typically the seam allowance for most patterns.

Insgesamt interessant und kurzweilig. Die Schnitte sind außergewöhnlich und die Erklärungen sind leicht zu verstehen. Aufgebaut nach Schwierigkeitsgrad. Jedes Teil ist wandelbar, zB verschiedene Ärmelvarianten. Die Fotos sind einfach nur schön. Das Buch macht mich als Hobby-Schneidern glücklich!

Es el mejor libro de costura que tengo. Viene con tallas grandes y los modelos están súper bonitos. El único punto malo esquí los patrones vienen al parecer mal impresos.

This is just a beautiful book. The patterns work well for most shapes although I may skip the very closer fitting ones because I prefer loose styles. I like how it starts simple. Great value too as you get the patterns plus the option to download and print. So far made the bag but stuck on the Sade because I like it so much, have made 2 and would like more as so versatile with a bit of a button on sleeve they are very wearable with tattooed arms. Beautiful but simple styled clothes.
